Hi, I would like to disable the labeling of hypointensities. Is there a command I can use in order to do that? Thanks! Kelli

Label folder
by Juergen Haenggi 17 Jan '07

17 Jan '07

Dear Freesurfer users we are running Freesurfer 3.0.4. (64bit) on a grid computer. If we run recon-all -all with the -dontrun flag, everything is fine. But if we then run the analysis, it run until it tried to write the /label/lh.aparc.annot file. The Freesurfer said there is no directory called "label". But this directory was there and I guess that Freesurfer itself has deleted the label directory. Does anyone had a similar problem or any idea where the problem is?

mesial temporal lobe gyrus
by tulu 16 Jan '07

16 Jan '07

Dear freesurfer experts, I use the latest version of freesurfer 3.0.4 to study pial thickness. I found the part of mesial temporal lobe did not included in pial surface in many cases(see figure). Is it correct ? should I add the control point to every cases ? Thanks replay Kl chen

segmentation fault
by Cameron Ellis 16 Jan '07

16 Jan '07

Hi, I attached a text file of the reconall log for a subject which lists a segmentation fault that I have received. I have corrected the talairach transform for this subject, checked the inorm and skull strip and continue to receive this error. There are some minor bumps on the inflated surface that correspond to some locations in the wm.mgz where the wm extends very slightly beyond the pial surface. How can I tell if this is leading to the segmentation fault and if it is worth correcting? Can I tell from the error message or do i just have to correct this and rerun recon2 and 3? I also included a tiff of lh.inflated and one of a defect in the wm.mgz that can be seen on the surface. Any advice is greatly appreciated! Thanks, Cameron

matlab load/save mgh
by Jed Jeng 16 Jan '07

16 Jan '07

Hi, I've been using the matlab scripts to load and save mgh files. I've noticed a difference in the precision in my original volumes and the ones I've saved with matlab. Namely, after saving a volume with matlab and loading it up in tkmedit I notice that everything now has an extra 2 digits of precision (aka. voxels with an intensity of 100 now have an intensity of 100.00). Is there any way to remedy this small problem? I've used an integer array in matlab, and I've tried to just mri_convert the volume in hopes that it would truncate the values. I'm only asking because cor2label won't work with the matlab saved volumes. Any help is appreciated. Thanks! ~Jed

VNC/GLX... what is really vncserver.glx
by Yaroslav Halchenko 16 Jan '07

16 Jan '07

Dear Freesurfer People, >From http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/RemoteAccess we found out that it seems MGH people have some custom script or a VNC server (named vncserver.glx) which GLX support good enough to run freesurfer within VNC session. We have been using standard vnc4server which provides GLX capabilities but unfortunately seems not all, so whenever we run tksurfer (for instance) we get a lengthy list of following errors and opengl canvas not painted at all ,------------------------------------------- | Received X error! | Error code : 158 | Request code : 148 | Minor code : 2 | | Error text : 'GLXBadLargeRequest' `--- Could you please advice on what VNC server solution you are using for freesurfer -- Yaroslav Halchenko Research Assistant, Psychology Department, Rutgers-Newark Student Ph.D. @ CS Dept.

convert xfm to dat?
by Benjamin Simon Thompson 16 Jan '07

16 Jan '07

Hello I am using fsfast to perform a retinotopy analysis. The initial stages are working well, however when I come to register my low-resolution functional scans to my high-resolution anatomical data using spmregister-sess I get a poor regestration which is very time-consuming to correct with tkregister-sess. From a separate analysis on this data using MINC tools I have a .xfm regestration file that registers my low resolution data (in .mnc format) to my high resolution data (also in .mnc format). Is there any way I can convert this xfm file to the .dat file required by FSFAST? Thanks, Ben

Hi, When I was using freesurfer I met one problem: After I installed freesurfer, I entered the command "tkmedit bert orig.mgz" to see whether it does work, but the ubuntu windows closed and then restart again to the login in window. So, I do not know what's wrong with it? Can you help me to deal with the problem? I am appreciate your help! zhang yi zhang yi 2007-01-15
