Extract single time frame
by Rockers, Elijah D. 16 Oct '22

16 Oct '22

Hello again, I have a large time series in dicom or .nii format. I am interested in extracting a single time frame from it. I did this before, I believe with freesurfer, but I have somehow forgot the name of the command, and I can't seem to find it. I believe it could be used to specify particular regions of the volume, as well as time. I need the entire volume, still, but only one frame. Thanks in advance! Eli Houston Methodist.

Yeo 2011 Functional Cortical Parcellations

Hi Mailing List, I am attempting to apply the Yeo 2011 7-network fucntional parcellations to a set of fs MRIs processed with v5.1.0.

Building from source -- autoconf error
by Alle Meije Wink 29 Mar '18

29 Mar '18

I'm trying to build FreeSurfer from source on my Debian 8 (jessie) system. (64 bit, using g++ 4.9 for compilation) After $ cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@fsvm.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu:/usr/fscvsroot login $ cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@fsvm.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu:/usr/fscvsroot checkout -P dev $ cd dev $ cvs update -d # just to make sure $ ./setup_configure I get these messages: rm -rf autom4te.cache libtoolize --force libtoolize: putting auxiliary files in AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR, `config'. libtoolize: linking file `config/ltmain.sh' libtoolize: putting macros in `m4'. libtoolize: linking file `m4/libtool.m4' libtoolize: linking file `m4/ltoptions.m4' libtoolize: linking file `m4/ltsugar.m4' libtoolize: linking file `m4/ltversion.m4' libtoolize: linking file `m4/lt~obsolete.m4' libtoolize: Consider adding `AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR([m4])' to configure.in and libtoolize: rerunning libtoolize, to keep the correct libtool macros in-tree. aclocal aclocal: warning: autoconf input should be named 'configure.ac', not 'configure.in' aclocal: error: configure.in:2045: file 'm4/autotroll.m4' does not exist Which looks like a not-(anymore)supported use of autoconf? I found one previous message on the list about autotroll https://mail.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/pipermail//freesurfer/2012-January/021854.… that provided another version of configure.in which might solve the issue. And it did in the original case but sadly not for me. I get the same error message also with the new configure.in -- there should probably be a configure.ac? If anyone knows how to make this work (e.g. by modifying the configure script) that would be fantastic.

mris_flatten error: bad vertex
by Ji Won Bang 20 Feb '18

20 Feb '18

Dear. Freesurfer experts. Hi. I'm having a problem with mris_flatten (version 5.3.0) Could you please help me fix this problem? My command line is: mris_flatten -w 0 -distances 12 7 $SUBJECTS_DIR/$SUBJECT/surf/lh.oc.patch.3d $SUBJECTS_DIR/$SUBJECT/surf/lh.oc.patch.flat It returns the error: using write iterations = 0 sampling 7 neighbors out to a distance of 12 mm reading patch /home/jbang/Projects/replay/mri//replay06/surf/lh.oc.patch.3d with 30434 vertices (20.5% of total) MRISreadPatch: bad vertex # (148517) found in patch file No such file or directory When making the patch lh.oc.patch.3d, I followed the processes below: tksurfer-sess -s $SUBJECT -df sessdirfile -hemi lh -analysis retino -contrast UpperLower select 3 points along a boundary between upper and lower visual fields (near calcarine sulcus) and press "Cut line". Then, select 4 points to define the cutting plane: 1 on lower side of the line, 2 on upper side of the line, 3 on the opposite surface (use rotation tool), and 4 to specify which portion of surface is kept, and press "Cur plane". File->Patch->Save Patch As lh.oc.patch.3d So I think I made the patch correctly. ! weird thing that I suspect is that when I click save patch as, the default location is $SUBJECTS_DIR/fsaverage/surf/ , so I had to change it to $SUBJECTS_DIR/$SUBJECT/surf Could you please help me? Thanks a lot! Best, Ji Won

Nonlinear CVS registration into average brain for coordinates
by Zhou, David Wei 10 Jan '18

10 Jan '18

Hi all, I have a data set of 14 subjects with intracranial (both cortical and subcortical) electrode implants, already recon'ed in Freesurfer, with an average brain + surface computed of these subjects. I would like to map each subject's electrode coordinates (a set of RAS points) into the average brain using a nonlinear transformation to account for individual deviations in surface topology. I'm trying to figure out the steps that must be taken to achieve this. With my average brain as a template, it seems like I would use mri_cvs_register to produce each subject warped onto the template. After generating those warps, how does one apply the same warp to a set of coordinates, for example to find out where my electrodes end up in the template brain? Which output file in .../cvs contains the data necessary to compute the coordinates in the template? I'd appreciate any instruction, thanks! David

Hello, I am trying to have the atlases aparc.a2009+aseg.mgz, hippocampal subfield etc ... in a matrix with the same size as the input of recon-all (and not the cubic matrix 256x256x256) and with the same orientation. what is the best way to do it ?

Average myelination within ROI
by SHAHIN NASR 06 Jul '17

06 Jul '17

Hi Surfers, I want to measure the average amount of myelinations within my ROI(s), I have already generated my myelination maps on surfaces (e.g. lh.myelin_ProjFrac0p5.nii ). Then I used mri_segstats as below: mri_segstats --i lh.myelin_ProjFrac0p5.nii --slabel SBJ_001 lh lh.V1 --sum V1_Stats.txt --accumulate but the numbers don't make any sense. For instance: # ColHeaders Index SegId NVertices Area_mm2 StructName Mean StdDev Min Max Range 1 0 125261 82573.4 Seg0000 110280.4453 0.2922 -5.5000 51.0000 56.5000 2 1 1138 764.8 Seg0001 941.0988 0.1572 0.2675 1.4203 1.1527 How can mean=941.0988 when the max=1.4203 ???
