bbregister

Hi freesurfer-ers: when you run something like: *bbregister --s MySubject --t1 --mov t1_svs.nii --init-fsl --reg t1.reg.dat* ** I expect to generate a file "t1.reg.dat". bbregister is exiting normally with no error message. Where is this file? I cannot find it. Thanks in advance. Saad

Error downloading old version of freesurfer
by Rune Eikeland 12 Apr '11

12 Apr '11

Hi, When I try to download an old version of freesurfer (4.3.1) from http://www.freesurfer.net/pub/dist/freesurfer/4.3.1/ I get the following error message: The connection was reset The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading. I get the same error message with all versions of 4.3.1. Will it be possible for someone to fix these links? Alternatively, is it possible to download this version for Leopard/Mac from some other location? Best regards, Rune

Re: [Freesurfer] functional ROI analysis problem
by Katie Bettencourt 11 Apr '11

Ok, I ran that and a couple questions. I ran it on 2 different subjects and got the exact same value, is that expected? Do I need to run it for each subject? Also, do I need to do this for event-related designs as well, or just block designs? I tried to run it on another analysis I did, an event-related one, but got this error: ??? Error using ==> times Matrix dimensions must agree.

Fwd: bbregister bug? with init-spm option--flips left and right
by Tyler Seibert 11 Apr '11

11 Apr '11

Screenshot2 attached ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Tyler Seibert <tseibert(a)ucsd.edu> Date: Thu, Mar 17, 2011 at 4:02 PM Subject: bbregister bug? with init-spm option--flips left and right To: freesurfer(a)nmr.mgh.harvard.edu Hello, I hope this is the correct email list--this is my first time posting (just subscribed). I have been using bbregister to calculate a tranformation matrix between a T2 image (T2brain.nii.gz) and the subject's T1.mgz for subsequent use with mri_vol2surf. I have found that the init-fsl option frequently gives very poor registrations (e.g., registered T2 is rotated 30+ degrees from T1). The init-spm option seemed to be working great. However, upon close inspection, I became suspicious this option was actually flipping the T2 so that the left hemisphere became right and vice versa. I am using FreeSurfer version 4.5 and have spm8 referenced in my matlab path. I used a directory ~/bbreg_test in my home directory for the test (linux), which consisted simply of running bbregister with init-fsl and init-spm options. The attached log file (log.txt) contains the commands I used. The terminal output from each test was saved in text files as well, also attached. I have also attached two screenshots of the tkregister2 output for these tests. In each screenshot the far left image is the registered T2 using init-spm, and the far right image is the registered T2 using init-fsl. As the init-fsl version is clearly wrong, the middle image in each screenshot is the init-fsl output again, but manually rotated several degrees to the left to better emphasize the mirror-image relationship between the init-spm (far left) and init-fsl (middle and far right) output images. Please let me know if there is anything further you need from me to investigate this or if there is any insight you can give me as far as how to avoid this error. I noticed at line 209 of the spm_test.txt log file there is a message stating that RAS coordinate system is assumed (see below, where I have copied lines 208-213 for convenience). This may very well be the problem, as the T2brain.nii.gz volume is in LAS, according to mri_info output. However, I do not see where I can override this RAS assumption. >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> /home/tylers/apps/spm8/spm_coreg.m > >> >> >> >> >> INFO: Assuming RAS coordinate system > >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> using > /home/tylers/bbreg_test/init-spm/tmp.bbregister.15515/spmregister/refvol.spmregister.img > as the target image > >> using > /home/tylers/bbreg_test/init-spm/tmp.bbregister.15515/spmregister/movvol.spmregister.img > as the source image > >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> > Thank you, -- Tyler Seibert Dept. of Bioengineering Medical Scientist Training Program University of California, San Diego -- Tyler Seibert Dept. of Bioengineering Medical Scientist Training Program University of California, San Diego

distance between two points along cortical surface
by Fariba Sharifian 11 Apr '11

11 Apr '11

Hi, How should I have the distance between two points in mm? If I use the ?h.sphere, as all the spherical surfaces are normalized to have 100 radius. so the geodesic distances should not be the real distance in mm?

recommende pc and cuda
by Knut J Bjuland 09 Apr '11

09 Apr '11

Hi I am in the process of acquiring a new computer to run freesurfer on. I am currently think about buying a PC with a geforce 4X0 and a Tesla card along with a two screen setup running either Ubuntu or Redhat Linux enterprise 6.0. I think the PC should be a core i7 with 6 core and above 12 gigs byte of ram. What kind of tesla card is recommend for using with Freesurfer? Will Freesurfer 5.1 also support cuda 4.0. Knut J
