Australia's native fauna is unique through millions of years of isolated evolution resulting in a significant divergence of marsupial brain anatomy, and thus neural pathways, from eutherian mammals. This study provides a morphometric description of a mature female koala (Phascolarctos cinereus) through segmentation of high-resolution magnetic resonance images. As the availability of brain specimens of the endangered koala is scarce, brain segmentation has been performed on a single specimen.
