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.

Course in Advanced Neuroimaging (Barcelona)
by Erick Canales 20 Sep '19

20 Sep '19

Dear colleagues, I am pleased to announce our upcoming Course in Advanced Neuroimaging held annually in Barcelona. It takes a practical approach and does not require qualifications or previous experience in neuroimaging. It will be taught in Spanish. The multidisciplinary programme provides thorough training in the analysis of brain images from different MRI modalities and data modeling techniques, including voxel-based morphometry, cortical thickness, diffusion tensor imaging, fibre tracking, functional MRI and brain connectivity, as well as the statistical methods behind these techniques including elements of meta-analysis, and more. The course consists of a five-month online theoretical module (starting on November 6th) and a period of practical face-to-face training (split between two days in November and two weeks at the end of April) held in Barcelona. For further information, please visit the website: www.cursoneuroimagen.com Best regards, Erick J. Canales-Rodríguez Joaquim Radua Raymond Salvador Edith Pomarol-Clotet FIDMAG Research Foundation and Sociedad Española de Neuroimagen *www.fidmag.com <http://www.fidmag.com/>*

DKT vs. DK Freesurfer atlases
by Gabor Perlaki 11 Jan '19

11 Jan '19

Dear all, I've found an article comparing DK and DKT atlas based automatic segmentations to manual labels (Klein and Tourville, Front Neurosci. 2012; 6:171, https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3514540/) It seems that using DKT40 works better than DK in most of the cortical regions (based on Dice). Does anybody know that the DKTatlas related results created by Freesurfer (e.g. aparc.DKTatlas+aseg.mgz, lh.aparc.DKTatlas.stats) are based on the same DKT40 atlas used in the article and whether the DKT40 atlas related results were also created by Freesurfer in the article by Klein and Tourville? Are the Freesurfer created results in lh.aparc.DKTatlas.stats generally more reliable than the results in lh.aparc.stats? -- Gabor Perlaki research associate Diagnostic Center of Pécs H-7623 Pécs, Rét str. 2.

LME
by Tefera, Getaneh B 07 Jan '19

07 Jan '19

Dear Freesurfer experts, I have three groups g0, g1, and g2. I am trying to use LME model with random effects y-int and time from the base line. Based on the LME tutorial and the questions and answers from Freesurfer support list: Y=B1+B2*t+B3*g1+B4*g1*t+B5*g2+B6*g2*t+ ... The slope of g0 : 0 1 0 0 0 0 The slope of g1: 0 1 0 1 0 0 The slope of g2: 0 1 0 0 0 1 The slope difference between g0 and g1: 0 0 0 1 0 0 The slope difference between g0 and g2: 0 0 0 0 0 1 The slope difference between g1 and g2: 0 0 0 -1 0 1 1) Is this contrast matrix correct to observe pairwise slope difference? In the tutorial the contrast matrix C = [zeros(3,3) [1 0 0 0 0; -1 0 1 0 0; 0 0 -1 0 1] zeros(3,6)] 2) Is it necessary to combine contrast matrix of the pair difference the same as the tutorial? If so, my contrast matrix can be C=[0 0 0 1 0 0; 0 0 0 -1 0 1] 3) How can we interpret the result for this contrast matrix? 4) How can I obtain B1, B2, ... ? [sz1,sz2] = lme_plannedSampleSize(Zi,ZiCol,Dhat,phisqhat,effsz,... dr,pw,alpha,gr_pr) 5) For sample size calculation how can I get Dhat ( Estimated random effects covariance matrix) and phisqhat (Estimated intra-subject variability)? With regards Getaneh

Longitudinal stream : LME and limits of model
by Matthieu Vanhoutte 14 Dec '18

14 Dec '18

Dear Freesurfer’s experts, I would have some questions regarding the LME model to be used in longitudinal stream: 1) Which are the ratio limits or % of missing timepoints accepted ? (according time, I have less and less subjects time points) 2) Is it possible to include patients that would miss the first timepoint but got the others ? 3) Considering a group in longitudinal study, which is the number of subjects minimal of this group accepted for LME modeling ? 4) Finally, concerning quality control and among a big number of total time points, which essential controls are necessary ? (Control of norm.mgz of the base, alignment of longitudinal timepoints on base,… ?) Best regards, Matthieu

Cortical Parcellations in individual space using Yeo et al 2011
by Bailin, Emma 24 Oct '18

24 Oct '18

Hello, I'm preparing to do resting state analyses and I'd like to use the Yeo 2011 network atlas for the cortical parcellations. Looking through the archive, I know that mri_surf2surf with the -sval-annot flag can be used to convert the fsaverage from the Yeo et al 2011 study to an individual subject space, but I noticed a caveat to this when I called mri_surf2surf -help. The caveat is on example 5: "this is not a substitute for running the cortical parcellation! The parcellations that it maps to the new subject may not be appropriate for that subject." Given this information, I've got a few questions: 1) How accurate is the mapping using mri_surf2surf? That is, is it good for preliminary data, but not for the final analysis? 2) How do you run the cortical parcellation using the Yeo 2011 atlas? [I know that mris_ca_train and mris_ca_label exist, but I'm unsure if they are the right commands to run when I'm not building my own atlas] 3) If I do the cortical parcellations using the Yeo 2011 atlas, will the edits/labels I've done using the Desikan atlas remain accurate? This goes back to the second question, as I'm not sure where in the general processing stage I need to go. Thank you!

Yeo 2011 Functional Cortical Parcellations
by Bronwyn Overs 24 Oct '18

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.
