Hippocampal subfields on 1.5 Tesla
by Alan Francis 01 May '14

01 May '14

Hi Bruce and FreeSurfers: I have received a manuscript to review for possible publication. The authors have used the subfields algorithm on 1.5T scans and obtained a parcellation with values. They have drawn some major conclusions on the basis of the findings. My understanding is that this method can only be done on 3T. Is the 1.5T results valid? Please advice. thanks, Alan Francis

Hi list, Anybody has ever tried to bring Freesurfer pial surfaces for render in 3D studio max? I would be curious on the procedure to follow, more specifically on which file to export/import/convert. Thank you. Dorian TJU

basic segmentation stats question
by Shantanu Ghosh 30 Apr '14

30 Apr '14

Dear Freesurfers, Pardon me for a very basic question. If I wanted to extract the hemisphere-wise GM and WM values for multiple subjects using a single command, what is the best way to do it? Thanks in advance.

reading ?h.smoothwm.nofix
by Virendra Mishra 30 Apr '14

30 Apr '14

Hello all, Is there a way to read ?h.smoothwm.nofix using freesurfer_fread3() command in matlab? The question that I want to ask really is ?h.smoothwm.nofix should essentially have the same file format as ?h.pial (but I may be wrong) because ?h.*.pial.asc and ?h.*.nofix.asc both have vertices and faces information and I can read ?h.pial using freesurfer_fread3() command. Can anybody help me to read the ?h.smoothwm.nofix file using freesurfer_fread3() command? Thank you for any help. Sincerely, Virendra. ________________________________ UT Southwestern Medical Center The future of medicine, today.

mri_vol2surf and MNI152_2mm
by JacobML＠nmr.mgh.harvard.edu 30 Apr '14

30 Apr '14

Hello Freesurfer Experts, I was wondering if someone can help me understand which options I need to include with mri_vol2surf for the following situation? I am trying to take group stats generated within FEAT that are in MNI152_2mm space and registrar/project those to fsaverage inflated surface. When I tried a quick visualization using just tksurfer and overlaying my MNI space vol images, there seemed to be anatomical/registration differences between where each space displayed the stats. I then attempted to use mri_vol2surf (command below) in hopes of better aligning these two spaces, but the statistical intensity values have been lost and I am not confident that this command worked in the way I thought it might/would like it to. I am not sure which flags/options may be best in this situation, but any insight you may have is greatly appreciated! Command used: mri_vol2surf --mov /.../tstat2.nii.gz --ref /.../MNI152_T1_2mm_brain.nii.gz --reg fsaverage --mni152reg --hemi rh --surf white --o /.../stats/ Is part of my problem that I have not specified a particular --out_type?

Segmentatoin fault using Freesurfer Functions Fedora 19 - Freesurfer 5.1
by West, John D. 30 Apr '14

30 Apr '14

Hello. We are trying to get Freesurfer 5.1 to work on Fedora 19. The functions we have tried show the help menu successfully when asked, but run into a Segmentation Fault when trying to process anything. Both tkmedit and mri_convert have shown this behavior. Segmentation Faults are notoriously hard to track down, but do you have any suggestions as to what may be causing this? This version of freesurfer seems to work fine on fedora 17 and older. We are using the CentOS4 x86_64 version of Freesurfer 5.1. Thanks. -John West Systems Administrator IU Center for Neuroimaging

re finding sulcal folding values
by Anna Jonsson 30 Apr '14

30 Apr '14

Hi I would like get a mean sulcal folding value per hemisphere and roi data. I have two questions: Is possible do sulcal depth analysis using qdec? And What is the exact command to pass to mris_anatomical_stats to get a mean sulcal depth value /per hemisphere? I have tried some few variations with no luck. Thank you for your help, Kind Wishes, Anna

repost: mri_convert Siemens Skyra .IMA CentOS5.7 FS5.3
by prasser 29 Apr '14

29 Apr '14

Hi, I am still having some concerns using mri_convert on Skyra volumes that I'm hoping can please be addressed. On this occasion I have used mri_convert to convert a single dicom file to nifti from a volume collected on a siemens Skyra scanner using Freesurfer5.3 on CentOS5.7. When viewing this nifti image using tkmedit it appears 'cut-up' over many sagittal slices (please see attached) rather than the whole image appearing on one plane. Not sure if this is an issue with tkmedit or mri_convert? This problem persists if i convert the entire volume, with this 'cutting' appearing as vertical lines in the image. This is also the case when using the new mri_convert patch for OS X. Lastly, I can upload a dicom file if needed. Thanks, Paul
