Atlases
To load an atlas, first download it to iMango. Select it from the Image Browser and tap the button in the upper right corner. Load a new image. It should now be available and can be selected from the Coordinate Mode button. Once loaded, the downloaded ZIP file can be deleted. This process only needs to be done once — after that the atlas is always available for use. To remove an atlas, delete it from iMango documents in iTunes.
Creating an Atlas
iMango can read atlas data that follows the FSL Atlas specification. An atlas of this kind is composed of two files. An XML file that contains a map of anatomical labels and an image file that references these labels.
The atlas data that comes with an FSL installation can easily be packaged for iMango. To create an iMango atlas, follow these steps:
- Create a folder and give it an extension of .atlas.
- Copy the XML file to this folder.
- Note in the XML file the relative path of the image file. Create any subfolders necessary for this path and copy the image to this location.
- Zip the atlas folder so that it has the extension .atlas.zip.
