abstract = "The delineation of cortical areas on magnetic resonance images (MRI) is important for understanding the complexities of the developing human brain. The previous version of the Melbourne Children's Regional Infant Brain (M-CRIB-S) (Adamson et al. Scientific Reports, 10(1), 10, 2020) is a software package that performs whole-brain segmentation, cortical surface extraction and parcellation of the neonatal brain. Available cortical parcellation schemes in the M-CRIB-S are the adult-compatible 34- and 31-region per hemisphere Desikan-Killiany (DK) and Desikan-Killiany-Tourville (DKT), respectively. We present a major update to the software package which achieves two aims: 1) to make the voxel-based segmentation outputs derived from the Freesurfer-compatible M-CRIB scheme, and 2) to improve the accuracy of whole-brain segmentation and cortical surface extraction. Cortical surface extraction has been improved with additional steps to improve penetration of the inner surface into thin gyri. The improved cortical surface extraction is shown to increase the robustness of measures such as surface area, cortical thickness, and cortical volume.",
