propagating edits across in the FreeSurfer longitudinal stream
by Collins, Jessica Ann 13 Jan '16

13 Jan '16

Dear FS Community, I am currently using FreeSurfer 5.3 to conduct a longitudinal analysis of atrophy in Semantic Dementia. Because of the profound temporal pole atrophy in these patients, I have been making a lot of manual edits (mostly control points and wm edits) to the baseline scan, and these edits are often consistent across different time points for the same individual. I understand that with the longitudinal stream it is necessary to make edits to all cross-sectional scans, however I was wondering if there was any way to propagate manual edits made at one time point to future time points for the same subject? Any insight would be appreciated! Best regards, Jessica Jessica Collins, Ph.D. Postdoctoral Research Fellow Department of Neurology MGH-Harvard Medical School

Hi, I am running mri_convert (from .dcm to .nii.gz) and I get the following error: ERROR: RLL-encoded image data not supported! (Transfer Syntax UID: 1.2.840.10008.1.2.5) Any help is appreciated. Thank you! Kalli

(no subject)
by Smaragdi A. 12 Jan '16

12 Jan '16

Hi mailing list, I have encountered this problem in Freesurfer a number of times now and I wondered if any of you had any solutions. It seems that sometimes after a recon-all has been run, there is a large overlap of the pial boundary and wm boundary, in the same region each time near the lateral ventricles (it can be on either hemisphere or both). I have attached a print screen of the issue, this time in the LH. As you can see, we have tried adding CPs and have also added WM, but after re-running it, the problem still exists. We have also tried running the randomness, but this has had no effect. Any suggestions as to what we could do to fix this would be great - thank you!

Re: [Freesurfer] recon-all issue

Dear colleagues, as I posted before, we are recently using the freesurfer recon-all command. Here are three different commands we used: 1)# Version 1: Import as DICOM #!/bin/sh -e # Segmentierung mit FreeSurfer. # Die Ergebnisse werden in dem Verzeichnis gespeichert, in dem sich # dieses Script befindet. # Verzeichnis der DICOM Daten DCMDIR=../../Daten/DICOM # Verzeichnis der NIFTI Daten NIIDIR=../../Daten/NIFTI # Unterverzeichnis der T1 Daten T1DIR=E010Kopf_Studie/M_MPRAGE_sag cd `dirname $0` export SUBJECTS_DIR=`pwd` for i in $DCMDIR/3001* ; do ID=`basename $i` if [ ! -d $i/$T1DIR ] ; then echo "*** $ID: T1 DICOM Bilder nicht gefunden." continue fi if [ -f $ID/scripts/IsRunning.lh+rh ] ; then cat $ID/scripts/IsRunning.lh+rh echo "*** $ID: Segmentierung lÃ¤uft gerade oder wurde abgebrochen." echo "*** $ID: Bei Abbruch '$ID/scripts/IsRunning.lh+rh' lÃ¶schen." continue fi if [ ! -f $SUBJECTS_DIR/$ID/mri/orig/001.mgz ] ; then recon-all -s $ID -i $i/$T1DIR/IM-*-0001.dcm fi if ! grep -q "CMDARGS -s $ID -all" \ $SUBJECTS_DIR/$ID/scripts/recon-all.done ; then recon-all -s $ID -all fi done 2)# Version 2: Import as NIFTI in standard orientation #!/bin/sh -e # Segmentierung mit FreeSurfer. # Die Ergebnisse werden in dem Verzeichnis gespeichert, in dem sich # dieses Script befindet. # Verzeichnis der DICOM Daten DCMDIR=../../Daten/DICOM # Verzeichnis der NIFTI Daten NIIDIR=../../Daten/NIFTI cd `dirname $0` export SUBJECTS_DIR=`pwd` for i in $NIIDIR/3001*/*_T1_fov.nii.gz ; do DIR=`dirname $i` ID=`basename $DIR` if [ -f $ID/scripts/IsRunning.lh+rh ] ; then cat $ID/scripts/IsRunning.lh+rh echo "*** $ID: Segmentierung lÃ¤uft gerade oder wurde abgebrochen." echo "*** $ID: Bei Abbruch '$ID/scripts/IsRunning.lh+rh' lÃ¶schen." continue fi if [ ! -f $SUBJECTS_DIR/${ID}_2/mri/orig/001.mgz ] ; then recon-all -s ${ID}_2 -i $i fi if ! grep -q "CMDARGS -s ${ID}_2 -all" \ $SUBJECTS_DIR/${ID}_2/scripts/recon-all.done ; then recon-all -s ${ID}_2 -all fi done 3) # Version 3: Import as NIFTI.gz #!/bin/sh -e # Segmentierung mit FreeSurfer. # Die Ergebnisse werden in dem Verzeichnis gespeichert, in dem sich # dieses Script befindet. # Verzeichnis der DICOM Daten DCMDIR=../../Daten/DICOM # Verzeichnis der NIFTI Daten NIIDIR=../../Daten/NIFTI cd `dirname $0` export SUBJECTS_DIR=`pwd` for i in $NIIDIR/3001*/*_T1.nii.gz ; do DIR=`dirname $i` ID=`basename $DIR` if [ -f $ID/scripts/IsRunning.lh+rh ] ; then cat $ID/scripts/IsRunning.lh+rh echo "*** $ID: Segmentierung lÃ¤uft gerade oder wurde abgebrochen." echo "*** $ID: Bei Abbruch '$ID/scripts/IsRunning.lh+rh' lÃ¶schen." continue fi if [ ! -f $SUBJECTS_DIR/${ID}_3/mri/orig/001.mgz ] ; then recon-all -s ${ID}_3 -i $i fi if ! grep -q "CMDARGS -s ${ID}_3 -all" \ $SUBJECTS_DIR/${ID}_3/scripts/recon-all.done ; then recon-all -s ${ID}_3 -all fi done If you just look at the different output files, they look slightly different (just by looking at it).

R: R: Re: FDR correction
by stdp82＠virgilio.it 11 Jan '16

11 Jan '16

Hi list, I have resolved my issue on the previous point 2 by downloading matlab file on: https://sites.google.com/site/kittipat/mvpa-for-brain- fmri/convert_matlab_nifti after the command that you suggesedt: fdrthresh = fast_fdrthresh(p,0.05); the script produce p=0.053 Therefore, coming back to my answer I guess that no setting of the FDR threshold to 0.05/3 is requested in order to correct for multiple comparison (right and left hemispheres + subcortical). Is it correct? On the previous point 4 my answer remains open. I have used this command line: mri_surfcluster --in sig.nii.gz --hemi rh --sign abs --no-adjust --fdr 0.05 -- minarea 5 --sum summaryfile --subject fsaverage --annot aparc but I have difficulty to undestand which is the option to visualize the map corrected by mri_surfcluster. Additionally, from --help I do not understand the use of --ocn and --cst options.

fMRI activation color inversion
by Hirsch, Gabriella 11 Jan '16

11 Jan '16

Hi FreeSurfer experts, I recently ran a simple fMRI analysis in FSL and now generating images of the activation in freesurfer using reg-feat2anat to register the functional activation to the freesurfer recon-all files, and generating the images using tksurfer: tksurfer pilot_3 lh inflated -annot aparc.annot -ov run4578_COMB.gfeat/cope1.feat/stats/zstat1.nii.gz -ovreg run4_fwhm8.feat/reg/freesurfer/anat2std.register.dat -fthresh 4 -fslope 1 However I have come across a strange occurrence when I change the threshold. Specifically, when I set the -fthresh flag (bolded) as 4 (i.e. p=0.0001) or less, the activation colors comes off as they should (see 4_blue attached) in terms of how I set up the contrasts. But when I set my threshold to 5 or higher (changing nothing else), the colors of the activation invert (see 5_red attached). What does this mean? How can I fix this? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated! Thank you! Gabriella Mass.

PET processing seg fault with mri_glmfit --mrtm1
by Jonathan DuBois 11 Jan '16

11 Jan '16

Hi Freesurfer developers, I’m trying to perform BP analysis with mri_glmfit —mrtm1. I ran mri_gtmpvc without PVC, which finished without error. However, the km.hb.tac.nii.gz appears empty when I open it with fslview or tkmedit, although this may be due to the nature of the file (I’m not sure what it is supposed to show). The km.ref.tac.dat and km.hb.tac.dat are normal. Please let me know what you think. The command and error: mri_glmfit --y km.hb.tac.nii.gz --mrtm1 km.ref.tac.dat time.dat --o mrtm1 --no-est-fwhm --nii.gz Segmentation fault (core dumped) Where time.dat is a text file with the time (in seconds) of each frame: 0 30 60 90 120 150 180 240 300 360 420 540 660 780 900 1020 1140 1260 1380 1620 1860 2100 2400 2700 3000 3300 I’m using the linux version 6 beta downloaded on Oct. 30th freesurfer-Linux-centos4_x86_64-dev-20151030 Best, Jonathan

searchable Destrieux atlas by recon all labels?
by Andrea Bozoki 11 Jan '16

11 Jan '16

Is there any interactive or searchable version of the Destrieux atlas parcellations (the ones used by aparc.a2009s.annot)? It would be very helpful to be able to toggle back and forth between individual recon-all labels and a color atlas of the relevant region when examining ROI-based quantitative output (output that is not visual). Thanks, Andrea B.

BA46 volume from rostral mid-frontal gyrus
by Jae Cho 11 Jan '16

11 Jan '16

Dear FreeSurfer Experts, Could someone help me with a pipeline for creating a label from an edited existing label? I have aligned the aparc+aseg and its respective orig into ac-pc plane using AFNI. I then used fslmaths to make an ROI of just the rh_mid-frontal-gyrus. After editing the ROI using freeview, I am having trouble identifying which commands to use in order to create a new label and extracting the volume. Thank you, Jae
