recon-all Workflow Help
by Riya Chatterjee 06 Mar '19

06 Mar '19

External Email - Use Caution Hi, I am new to FreeSurfer - I am a high school sophomore trying to learn more about processing brain MRI's. I have read through most of the documentation, but I was not sure about the workflow for processing an MRI. I am trying to extract just surfaces and was wondering if I can run "recon-all -autorecon2 -pial..." without running "recon-all -all...". Basically, I'm trying to see if I need to run the "recon-all -all..." step before running any of the sub-processes. I would greatly appreciate any advice I could get on this, thanks. Thanks, Riya C

Gradient Inhomogeneity Correction in Bay3
by Chinappen, Dhinakaran Maheswaran 06 Mar '19

06 Mar '19

Dear Freesurfer community, We acquired images in Bay3 and would like to know where the gradient inhomogeneity correction files would be on cluster, if any. We are familiar with the Bay4 procedure for correcting for inhomogeneity and were also wondering if similar steps would be followed for images acquired in Bay3. Thank you!

mri_segstats issue with hippocampal subfields
by Daniel Callow 06 Mar '19

06 Mar '19

External Email - Use Caution Hello, I am trying to extract stats from the hippocampal subfield volumes that I have warped to diffusion space. mri_vol2vol --mov /Volumes/DANIEL/dti_freesurf/dtrecon/${subj}.${cond}./lowb.nii.gz --targ /Volumes/DANIEL/dti_freesurf/diffusion_recons/${subj}.${cond}/mri/lh.hippoSfLabels-T1.v10.FSvoxelSpace.mgz --inv --interp nearest --o /Volumes/DANIEL/dti_freesurf/dtrecon/${subj}.${cond}./lhipp2diff.nii.gz --reg /Volumes/DANIEL/dti_freesurf/dtrecon/${subj}.${cond}./register.dat --no-save-reg Then I run mri_segstats --seg /Volumes/DANIEL/dti_freesurf/dtrecon/${subj}.${cond}./lhipp2diff.nii.gz --ctab /Applications/freesurfer/FreeSurferColorLUT.txt --id 550 --id 552 --id 556 --id 557 --id 558 --i /Volumes/DANIEL/dti_freesurf/dtrecon/${subj}.${cond}./fa-masked.nii.gz --sum ${SUBJECTS_DIR}/${subj}.${cond}./stats/lhipp.fa.stats using the --i id# from FreeSurferColorLUT.txt. However, looking at the values of the hippocampal subfield volume I see that the Id's are all in the 200's? Is there a txt file that has the labelings like in FreeSurferColorLUT.txt for these hippocampal subfields?

External Email - Use Caution Hello Freesurfer Experts, May I ask if there is a whitening/weighting matrix used to give weighted least squares estimates (WLS) and whiten the data during the 1st-level model estimation in FSFAST? If so, how could I get it? Many thanks and kind regards, Lizhi

Group analysis
by Hengameh Marzbani 06 Mar '19

06 Mar '19

External Email - Use Caution Hi Freesurfers, I want to do group analysis on four groups and use the volume values in aseg,stats. 1- Is it correct that each subcortical segmentation is based on a "volumetric segmentation atlas" created by Freesurfer? 2- Are the volume values expressed in the space of this atlas? 3- Can I compare these absolute values between 4 groups ? 4- Should I apply correction to the volume measures by eTIV (also called ICV)? Thanks you in advance! Best regards, Hengameh
