mri_aparc2aseg issue
by Paul Beach 11 Apr '13

11 Apr '13

Hi Freesurfers, I'm currently trying to take manually made ROIs (label files) that have been incorporated into new annotation files (one for each hemisphere - rh.aug_aparc.annot & lh.aug_aparc.annot) and turn them into a new (augmented) annotation into a aseg file (an aug_aparc+aseg.mgz file). To do so I've been using the mri_aparc2aseg command and, at face value, it works well. However, some of my ROIs (specifically my insular ROIs) are being either shifted or lost in the transition from annotation to segmentation. Note that each hemisphere's new annotation files look perfect on tksurfer (which is where they were originally drawn). It's only when I try and make them fill the full cortical ribbon with the mri_aparc2aseg command that I get this issue. I piloted everything out on averaged subject and it all worked perfectly. However, when I attempted things on individual subject data I received the problem described above. I've attached a picture illustrating the discrepancy between the an averaged subject and a single subject. I have also attached my script code. The overall goal is to create a gmroi_volume which will allow me to determine an aux number of each manual ROI so as to export each one to AFNI space. I'd *really* appreciate help on how to fix this. Thanks, Paul

Re: [Freesurfer] Transform SMOOTHWM to DTI B0
by Daniel Haehn 11 Apr '13

Hi Satra et al, thanks a lot and it would be great if you could find some code! In the meantime, I tried the following based on information from Kiho Im: # we have to first remove transformation of 'vertex to RAS' embedded in smoothwm surface. mris_transform lh.smoothwm identity.xfm ./lh.smoothwm.clean # then use the flirt T1-to-b0 matrix converted from .mat to .xfm format to transform the surface mris_transform lh.smoothwm.clean T1-to-b0.xfm lh.b0.smoothwm And of course: it didn't work.. In the attached screenshot, the red surface is the original one which kind of fits the b0 image but not very well (it obviously fits the original T1 very well). The blue is the transformed surface (lh.b0.smoothwm) and is completely off. [image: Inline image 1] Do you know what I could be doing wrong? I also attached both tranforms. Maybe I just converted them wrong. Thanks!!

Transform SMOOTHWM to DTI B0
by Daniel Haehn 11 Apr '13

11 Apr '13

Hi all, I want to transform the Freesurfer Smoothwm surfaces to DTI B0 space. I found http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/FreeSurferTrackVisTransforms but this describes transforming the B0 to T1 space and then match the surfaces. I don't want to change the DTI B0 image. What is the best way to do that? Thank you very much! Daniel -- Daniel Haehn FNNDSC / BCH +1.857.218.5140

Surfaces to *native* space
by Oscar Esteban 11 Apr '13

11 Apr '13

Dear all, I think my issue is quite related to this one (if not duplicated, sorry in that case): https://mail.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/pipermail/freesurfer/2013-February/027622.… As Shani, I used bbregister to coregister diffusion images to anatomical: > bbregister --s OE0_T1 --mov DTI_b0_brain.nii.gz --reg dti2anat.dat --dti --init-fsl Then, I visually checked the outcome and resampled the T1 to DTI space: > tkregister2 --mov DTI_b0.nii.gz --reg dti2anat.dat --surf > mri_vol2vol --mov DTI_b0.nii.gz --targ OE0_T1/mri/T1.mgz --reg dti2anat.dat --o T1-to-DTI.nii.gz --inv > tkregister2 --mov T1-to-DTI.nii.gz --targ DTI_b0.nii.gz --reg T1-to-DTI.nii.gz.reg Everything looks fine, but I cannot get the pial and white surfaces into dti space (please note the --reg-inv param and the ref volume DTI_b0.nii.gz, that should be important IMHO): > mri_surf2surf --s OE0_T1 --sval-xyz white --reg-inv dti2anat.dat DTI_b0.nii.gz --tval lh.white.dti --tval-xyz --hemi lh There seems to exist an orientation problem when trying to visualize the surface > tkmedit -f DTI_b0.nii.gz -surface lh.white.dti I also applied the solution that Douglas recommended Shani, without good results :(. Any light on this would be of the highest interest for me :D Thanks, Oscar -- Oscar Esteban PhD Student / Researcher Biomedical Image Technologies (BIT), UPM ETSI Telecomunicación Lab. C203, Av.

Finding adjacent vertices/labels
by Chris McNorgan 10 Apr '13

10 Apr '13

Hello Freesurfers, I was wondering if there is information embedded in the annotation/label files that could be used to determine whether two labels represent anatomically adjacent regions? For example, I have parcellated a bunch of participants using connectomemapper into 1000 ROIs. I was just now reading Power et al. (2011), who looked at functional connectivity, but specifically excluded connections between spheroid ROIs that were less than 20mm apart. Analogously, I might wish to exclude connections between adjacent labels, but it seemed that manually creating an adjacency matrix for 1000 regions would be impractical, and a good candidate for an automated approach. I'm just not clear what information such an approach might have to work with. Can the adjacency between two vertices be determined based on their values? If so, one approach might be: for each pair of labels (A,B): get set of vertices within A get set of vertices within B for each vertex pair (Ai, Bj) if Ai and Bj are adjacent, stop, and mark A and B as adjacent Cheers, Chris

Re: [Freesurfer] Comparing HRF undershoots between conditions
by Douglas N Greve 10 Apr '13

If you run tkmedit-sess, then open the overlay configuration window, then advance the time point to the delay you want. Otherwise, you can create a contrast where you just look at the delay you want. To do this, run mkcontrast-sess with -setwdelays and specify 0 for all delays and 1 for the delay you want to see. doug On 04/10/2013 04:15 PM, SHAHIN NASR wrote: > That's the problem Doug.

Comparing HRF undershoots between conditions
by SHAHIN NASR 10 Apr '13

10 Apr '13

Hi, I want to generate a map to show the significant difference between HRF undershoot (negative peak of activity) between two conditions independent from the positive peak. Is there anyway, to generate this map? P.S.: Please note that I need a map and not a time course graph. -- Shahin Nasr PhD in Cognitive Neuroscience Martinos Imaging Center, MGH Harvard Medical School
