We present the first atlas of the venous vasculature using quantitative susceptibility maps (QSM) acquired at 7T with a 0.6mm isotropic resolution. The atlas was created from 16 datasets in young and healthy volunteers by using a three step registration method on the inflated skeletons of the venous vasculature. This cerebral vein atlas shows the average vessel location and diameter.
