External Email - Use Caution Hello Stephen, I'll assume the VM is setup according to the online instructions, e.g., the VM is assigned 8G of RAM and 2 cores from the host machine.  I'll also assume you are opening files with freeview from within the VM's virtual disk, e.g., from the home directory you login to on the VM. I would try upgrading to the latest version of VirtualBox for Windows which is currently 6.1.32.  When you launch VirtualBox it should notify you there is a new version available and ask if you want to upgrade. Do you have some version of the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) also installed?   That can sometimes be an issue, but the error you report does not look to be from that.. - R. "Ogier, Stephen E.

External Email - Use Caution Dear Freesurfer experts, I am running the infantFS version for subjects under 1-year-old, and it seemed to run successfully, despite I can't find the surface stats file with the average cortical thickness. Is it usually at the stats directory?

Tracula Longitudinal Reproducibility
by Thorn, Kathryn 04 Apr '22

04 Apr '22

External Email - Use Caution Hello all, I am currently using the longitudinal implementation of Tracula with a dataset of five subjects each with two time points. All follow-up time points were acquired roughly three weeks after all baseline time points on a different scanner (when our lab upgraded from a Siemens TimTrio to a Prisma) but with an equivalent sequence. In the past, ROI analyses have resulted in similar ROI means between baseline and follow up scans - roughly a < 5% difference between baselines and follow ups. I was hoping for a similar range of differences between baseline and follow up whole-tract means with Tracula. I've looked at the genu, splenium, and left/right SLF 1; the % differences between baselines and follow ups are all over the place, ranging from ~25% to <1%. After looking at the data, my team believes this wide range of differences to possibly and/or partially be due to some of the tracts sampling CSF. The genu and the splenium in particular yielded very large % differences for us, so our thought is that masking out CSF should cause our % differences to go down. My question is this: Is there an elegant way to implement CSF masking with Tracula? I don't believe Tracula has the ability to do the CSF masking itself, but is there a best practice of when/how to mask out CSF that works best with Tracula? Thank you!

Inverse transform
by Aleksandra Szum-Jakubowska 04 Apr '22

04 Apr '22

External Email - Use Caution Dear Freesurfer Experts, I conduct the segmentations' examines using Freesurfer recon-all (for segmentation hippocampus and ventricles), SAMSEG (for ventricles) and using FSL FIRST (for hippocampus). Now I have a problem with compare the result (calculating overlap). For Freesurfer and FIRST I used T1 MRAGE image (dimentions 176x256x256). For Samseg I used T2 FLAIR images coregistered to T1 MPRAGE (dimentions 176x256x256) I have result from Freesurfer with dimensions 256x256x256 I have results from FSL First and SAMSEG with dimensions 176x256x256. It is important that all results are concerned other spaces, so I cannot calculate overlap using that results and I have to perform transformation to the same space. I tried doing this: mri_label2vol --seg aseg.mgz --temp rawavg.mgz --o aseg-in-rawavg.mgz --regheader aseg.mgz but my rawavg image has dimensions 176x256x174). But when I used brain.mgz or T1.mgz image, my results are moved. I have no idea how to perform the properly inverse transformation for getting segmentation results in originally T1 MPRAGE space. Could You give me some advice? Thanks a lot for your help. Best regards, Aleksandra [UMB_MUB] Niniejsza wiadomosc oraz jej zalaczniki moga zawierac informacje chronione prawem.

slice timing for multiband fMRI
by Laura Doll 04 Apr '22

04 Apr '22

External Email - Use Caution Hi everyone, We are currently piloting an fMRI measurement with multiband sequence on a 3T Siemens scanner to increase resolution, but I don't know how to do the slice timing correction: I assume, that I have to use a slicedelay file instead of the usual up/down/even/odd/siemens flags? But how do I know which slices were excited simultaneously? Our multiband acceleration factor is 2, if I got our MRI physicist correctly, GRAPPA acceleration is also 2, and we are using a TR of 2s. More details of the sequence are in the attached pdf (which is unfortunately in German). Looking forward to any suggestions. Best, Laura
