Abstract(in English) The anatomical structure of the human brain cortex, especially the central sulcus, is important information in the neurosurgery. Curved planar reformation (CPR) is one of the methods of displaying anatomic structures, and has recently been using for identifying the central sulcus. This technique is possible to display the whole structure of the left and right cerebral hemispheres within a single image. Then medical doctors identify the 3-dimensional position of the central sulcus using the CPR image. However, this work requires a higher level of skills and profound experience. We describe a semi-automatic method to find the central sulcus based on the CPR technique. Applying our method to the MRI data of patient, it has been able to find the central sulcus from many kind of sulci.
