Plot Histograms
by Dídac Vidal 01 May '14

01 May '14

Hi! I would like to plot an histogram with values from sig.mgh across all cortical mantle (as represented in qdec or in tksurfer-overlay options). Which function would allow me to obtain/create histograms from *mgh files? I also would like to obtain a similar histogram, but restricted to a cortical label. How I could do that? Thanks in advance -- Dídac Vidal Piñeiro Dept. Psychiatry and Clinical Psychobiology Faculty of Medicine University of barcelona

Constraining fMRI data with a surface label generates a bfloat file?
by JacobML＠nmr.mgh.harvard.edu 01 May '14

01 May '14

Hello Freesurfer Experts, Using func2roi (in stable3), we constrained our functional data with specific surface labels and t thresholds, and over-threshold masks were outputted as .bfloat files. Does this mean these masks are in volume format and that the volumetric functional data was mapped to the surface but then back to the volume again when the mask was created? We would now like to project these masks onto the fsaverage brain (for viewing). Can you please let me know how this may be accomplished? It seems mri_convert can not transpose .bfloat to .label, but I imagine there is a way! Thank you again for the help. Jacob

Rendering in 3ds Max?

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

cortical thickness limit
by Hayyah Clairman 01 May '14

01 May '14

Hello, I have done some comparative cortical thickness analyses in children using FreeSurfer and noticed that the maximum regional thickness value is 5.0. I was wondering if there is an explanation for this limit. Perhaps this is because FreeSurfer was designed for adults?

installing freesurfer on mac
by Demanuele, Charmaine 01 May '14

01 May '14

Hi, I am trying to install freesurfer on my mac, and I got a license key, which I need to save as ".license" file. However, the mac is not allowing me to do so. I tried saving the file in linux and importing to the mac but this failed too. I also tried saving it as freesurfer.license instead of just .license but I get the error: [Charmaines-MacBook-Pro:/Applications/freesurfer] Charm% tkmedit bert orig.mgz Couldn't create output file .xdebug_tkmedit-------------------------------------------------------------------------- ERROR: FreeSurfer license file /Applications/freesurfer/.license not found. Any ideas? Thanks very much, Best, Charmaine --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Charmaine Demanuele, Ph.D. Psychiatric Neuroimaging Athinoula A.

Re: [Freesurfer] Question regarding IGI
by Marie Schaer 30 Apr '14

Hi Virendra, Where does this surface come from? You didn't get this one after running the default recon-all, right? Looking at it I noticed a lots of holes and many small unconnected components on the medial aspect. I ran mris_euler_number and got a total of 68 defects, so I'm afraid you'll not be able to run lGI with this surface as the lGI code expect a single continuous surface with no holes. And beside the issue of running lGI until the end, I'm concerned that neither cortical thickness not cortical folding can be reliably estimated based on this surface, and that you'll have trouble registering it to an average template.

I will be very thankful if you can help me debug this issue. Thank you, Sincerely, Virendra. ________________________________ UT Southwestern Medical Center The future of medicine, today. <lh.pial>
