Cortical thickness clarification
by Rockers, Elijah D. 12 Dec '17

12 Dec '17

Hello, I was hoping to get some clarification on how exactly the cortical thickness number is calculated. In the videos, Doug says it's "the distance between the vertex on the white to the vertex on the pial, and you go backwards and forwards to compute the average thickness", and the 2000 paper says "the thickness is computed as the average of this distance measured from each surface to the other". From what I understand, You find the closest vertex on the pial surface from a given white matter surface vertex, then calculate the distance both ways and take the average. Why is the value not the same both ways, i.e., from white to pial, and from pial to white? Thanks very much, Eli Houston Methodist. Leading Medicine.

Qdec Table Loading Error
by Arsenije Subotic 12 Dec '17

12 Dec '17

Dear experts, I'm currently trying to import some of my data into Qdec in order to perform a group analysis on cortical thickness. All of my data was originally in an excel sheet and it had the following variables (fsid, gender, age, and thickness). I tried converting it into a file that would be opened with Qdec. I use a mac and I originally tried to export the file into text editor and I tried saving it as "qdec.table.dat", which had no problems being opened in text edit. However, when I tried loading it into qdec it gives me an error:"error loading the data table". I'm quite new to Qdec (this is my first week trying it). Is there some code that I can use to convert my file into a .dat file so that it can be compatible with qdec? I tried looking through the previous questions and trying some commands (for instance dos2unix -c mac qdec.table.dat, which supposedly replaces LF chars with CR chars). Thanks for your help. Arsenije

?h.pial_avg in make_average_subject in FS6.0
by Duran, Tugce 12 Dec '17

12 Dec '17

Dear Doug Greve, Where can I find the rh/lh.pial_avg file in fsaverage/surf/ created in freesurfer 6.0? Is this file named differently in FS 6.0 or do I need to process this step (where it makes rh or lh.pial_avg) separetely? Thanks, Tugce Duran

Thalamus and Thalamus-Proper
by 郑凤莲 12 Dec '17

12 Dec '17

Hi FS professors, I am using FS 6.0 for subcortical structures. I have a doubt about thalamus and thalamus-Proper. I added thalamus to brainmask.mgz in Freeview, it shows nothing. However, choose thalamus-Proper, it's ok. I just want to ensure whether the thalamus-Proper in Freesurfer is the same as the thalamus (one of the deep gray matter nuclei) mentioned in other papers. Thank you very much in advance. Sincerely, Zheng

Create surface Label from MNI152 Coordinate
by Bastian Cheng 12 Dec '17

12 Dec '17

Dear Freesurfer Experts. Is there a way to create a freesurfer surface label from entering a MNI152 coordinate? I would like to extract cortical thickness data from fMRI peak activation coordinates. I am aware that I can use tcl with tksurfer: mar_vertex X 1 labl_new_from_marked_vertices labl_dilate However as far as I know I can only input vertex numbers, not coordinates. Any helpt would be greatly appreciated!

Re: [Freesurfer] freesurfer version update issue in MacOS
by 강준영 12 Dec '17

12 Dec '17

Thank you for your answer, Bruce and Eugenio. Then the way to do that might be,, 1. Install new version of freesurfer to a new location. 2. Move previous data from old version freesurfer path to the new location. 3. Do what I want (hippo subfield) Right..? Thanks. Sincerely, Joonyoung. 2017. 12. 12. 오후 5:56에 "Iglesias Gonzalez, Eugenio" <e.iglesias(a)ucl.ac.uk>님이 작성: The answer is yes, indeed.

freesurfer version update issue in MacOS
by 강준영 12 Dec '17

12 Dec '17

Hello! I'm Joonyoung Kang, a graduate student in neuroscience. I've been using freesurfer over an year and I realized that I've used an old version of it. So I decided to update freesurfer and I couldn't find a way to do that. Do I just have to re-install the new version of freesurfer? If so, do I have to make a backup for my previous data in freesurfer folders? Thank you! p.s. I'm currently using MacOS X (10.11.6), freesurfer-Darwin-lion-stable-pub-v5.3.0, and Xquartz 2.7.11 Sincerely, Joonyoung Kang.
