Dear Thao,

Below is a list of the numbers, label names and colour
information used in the MGH colourmaps. I think this
should give you the information that you require (plus
quite a few labels which are not present in the atlases).

This comes from a lookup table provided with FreeSurfer.
We provide the same colourmaps as MGH-Subcortical
and MGH-Cortical.

I hope this helps.
All the best,
Mark
