tmp directory not created
by Sneha Pandya 28 Oct '16

28 Oct '16

Hi all, I am running recon-all stream for ~200 subjects and after successful run of them I observed that for some of the patients recon-all ran successfully without error but it did not create "tmp" sub-folder. Can anyone please advice when recon-all stream does not create "tmp" folder and do I need to run these subjects again even after its successful completion? Thanks, Sneha

How to get numerical r values from analysis
by Marissa Pifer 28 Oct '16

28 Oct '16

Hi freesurfer experts, I've run into a problem of not being able to generate the numerical results of the analysis I've run through qdec.After I ran the analysis in qdec I opened the overlay in tksurfer, applied a label, and found a significant negative correlation between cortical thickness and one of our variables. I cannot figure out how to get the numerical r value of this correlation. How can I get this value? Thanks in advance Marissa

Multiple Comparison Question for surface-based analyses
by Ajay Kurani 28 Oct '16

28 Oct '16

Hello Freesurfer Experts, Recently there were two article published regarding clusterwise simulations for volumetric fmri analyses and potential errors for underestimating clusterwise extent thresholds. 1) http://www.pnas.org/content/113/28/7900.full.pdf?with-ds=yes 2) biorxiv.org/content/early/2016/07/26/065862 One issue pointed out from these articles seems software specific, however the second issue is determining the proper clustersize. The heavy-tail nature of spatial smoothness seems to be ignored and a gaussian shape is generally assumed, leading to an underestimation of the spatial smoothness which can affect cluster size calculations. The issues are highlighted in the second article above. I created my own monte carlo simulation in Freesurfer for a specific brain template and I wanted to find out if these concerns also apply to my surface based simulations? I am not sure if it does since the monte carlo tool is a GRF simulation as opposed to an analytic equation, however given that these articles were highlighted very recently, I wanted to ensure I am running things appropriately for surface based cortical thickness/dti analyses. Thanks, Ajay

Group analysis Cortical Thickness
by Dev vasu 28 Oct '16

28 Oct '16

Dear Freesurfer Group, I would like to perform group analysis for 50 Subjects (25 healthy controls and 25 Subjects with BLVP ) and examine the changes in cortical thickness between 2 groups, could you please kindly inform me some methods that i should adapt to perform the analysis. Thanks Vasudev

mris_left_right_register not found
by Daya P 28 Oct '16

28 Oct '16

Hi All, I was looking to flip a label I created on the left hemisphere to the right hemisphere and I read in previous messages that mris_left_right_register and then mri_apply_reg might be an option. I can find mri_apply_reg as a command but not mris_left_right_register. The links to it previously posted are not available anymore. Is there an updated link available? Daiana

V6 beta update
by Bruce Fischl 27 Oct '16

27 Oct '16

Hi All, just an update on the status of the beta version of V6. We had hoped to have it out this week or early next week, but in our review of about ~250 hemispheres we found a small problem with one of them. We have a putative fix for the problem and are restarting our test suite. If it (finally!) passes everything we will have a version out in a couple of weeks. Sorry for the repeated delays, but we are doing everything we can to ensure that it will work well when we release it cheers Bruce

Hi all, How can I use mris_left_right_register, I tried downloading it but I get /home/daianapur/Documents/Dan/freesurfer/bin/mris_left_right_register: Permission denied. Is there an updated link that I can use to download it? Daiana

Re: [Freesurfer] White matter surface don't change after editing
by Cong 26 Oct '16

26 Oct '16

Hi Dear Bruce My problem is bilateral high signal grey matter in T1 image. For example, in uploaded subject at coordinate of TkReg RAS -59.00 3.00 5.00, white matter surface is too far out even though I have erased extra white matter voxel in wm.mgz and rerun. Another problem is grey matter surface bend inward, for example at coordinate of TkReg RAS -61.00 3.00 -14.00. I tried to use expert options to improve min_border_white and max_gray but couldn’t get satisfied surface. So I want to know whether freesurfer can fix these two problems and how. I’m sorry to occupy you so much time. Thanks very much.

Protocol for Ventricle Segmentation
by Tamara Tavares 25 Oct '16

25 Oct '16

Hello, I am wondering where I find the protocol used to segment the ventricles for Freesurfer version 5.1. Looking at the citations in Fischl et al 2002, I have found some information regarding the segmentation of the surfaces and some subcortical areas but not the ventricles. I was hoping to compare the segmentation protocol Freesurfer uses with another program. Thank you in advance for your help! Tamara
