06 Jun '17

Hello, I am trying to implement using Freesurfer segmentation in my analysis for MEG data. I am trying to segment this structural MRI (1400composite.dcm) and I keep getting errors. I have attached the log file. Any help is appreciated. Thank you, Emily Emily E. Rogers, MSc Wake Forest Graduate School of Arts and Sciences PhD Student, Neuroscience (336)-906-1103

Re: [Freesurfer] computational neuroanatomy position (fwd)

FYI ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Tue, 6 Jun 2017 18:33:39 +0000 From: "Reiser, Michael" <reiserm(a)janelia.hhmi.org> To: Bruce Fischl <fischl(a)nmr.mgh.harvard.edu> Subject: Re: computational neuroanatomy position https://www.janelia.org/lab/reiser-lab/positions The Reiser lab at the Janelia Research Campus seeks a creative scientist to join our endeavor to understand circuit transformations in the Drosophila brain. We use imaging, electrophysiological, behavioral, anatomical, and computational techniques to crack the neural circuits for vision and navigation in Drosophila. This is an exciting time to be working on the fly visual system— one of the best described complex circuits in neuroscience. We are now living through the golden age of Drosophila anatomy, ushered by a much-improved genetic toolkit, advances in light microscopy (LM), and connectomic reconstructions from electron microscopy (EM) data. Brain regions that were once too complex to be studied at the level of identified neurons, can now have their cells and circuitry catalogued. But these efforts are held back by a lack of computational and analytical tools. Neurons of the fly visual system lend themselves directly to structure-function questions. How much of a neuron's function could be predicted from its morphology and circuit connectivity? In this position, you would lead our efforts to analyze several LM and EM datasets. A number of software tools already exist for anatomical analysis — you would evaluate and use the best of these, and contribute new code where needed. The specific aim is to establish the central representation of visual information in the fly. Many projects are possible, related to active research topics in the lab: • elucidating the circuit mechanisms giving rise to feature detection in identified neurons. Directional selectivity is an especially active topic. • predicting the flow field selectivity of optic flow sensing neurons from their morphology (and collaborating with others in the lab to measure these responses) • following visual pathways out of the visual system and into the central brain to identify the architecture of behavioral control centers • identifying feedback pathways from the central brain into the visual system that modulate of sensory neurons in response to the behavioral state of the animal • Post-connectome projects, such as localizing critical proteins, especially ion channels, to specific neuronal compartments. Analysis of Expansion Microscopy data. Several computational extensions of these research areas would be encouraged: • applications of machine learning to these data sets • single neuron biophysical modeling • dynamical systems and network modeling All of these projects would involve direct collaborations with experimentalist in the lab and computational neuroscientists within Janelia, forming a tight loop between anatomical discovery and experimental methods. A hybrid position is also possible, starting with a focus on the analysis of EM data and then moving on to a functional analysis of these neurons. Requirements: Ph.D. in a quantitative field, familiarity with diverse computing environments, comfort with geometric relationships in three-dimensions, and a keen interest in figuring out the brain. Experience in computational anatomy and/or neuroscience is a big plus. Janelia is an exciting research environment (near Washington, D.C.), with abundant opportunities for collaboration. Interested applicants should apply by email; please include your curriculum vitae and research interests, and arrange for three letters of reference to be sent to reiserm at janelia.hhmi.org. If you have specific salary requirements, please include them in your e-mail; all information is confidential. HHMI is an equal opportunity employer.

LME correction in longitudinal analysis
by Livia Liu 06 Jun '17

06 Jun '17

Dear FS experts, I are analysing longitudinal data - the difference between 2 groups (1 and 2) with 2 time points for each group (0, 1 --all the same time interval: a month). I followed http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/LinearMixedEffectsModels and with Jorge's early reply in http://www.mail-achive.com/freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/msg25750.html (1)qdec.table.dat fsid fsid-base time group sub04_MR1 sub04 0 1 sub04_MR2 sub04 1 1 sub05_MR1 sub05 0 1 sub05_MR1 sub05 1 1 ... con01_MR1 con01 0 2 con01_MR1 con01 1 2 con01_MR1 con01 0 2 con01_MR1 con01 1 2 ... (2) mris_preproc --qdec-long qdec.table.dat --target fsaverage --hemi lh --meas thickness --out lh.thickness.mgh mri_surf2surf --hemi lh --s fsaverage --sval lh.thickness.mgh --tval lh.thickness_sm10.mgh --fwhm-trg 10 --cortex --noreshape (3) [Y,mri] = fs_read_Y('lh.thickness_sm10.mgh'); lhsphere=fs_read_surf('$FsDir/freesurfer/subjects/fsaverage/surf/lh.sphere'); lhcortex=fs_read_label('$FsDir/freesurfer/subjects/fsaverage/surf/lh.cortex.label'); (4)Qdec = fReadQdec('qdec.table.dat'); Qdec = rmQdecCol(Qdec,1); sID = Qdec(2:end,1); Qdec = rmQdecCol(Qdec,1); M = Qdec2num(Qdec); [M,Y,ni] = sortData(M,1,Y,sID); X = [ones(length(M),1) M M(:,1).*M(:,2)]; But when I followed wiki,code[M,Y,ni]first, matrix X will be four columns: 1-A column of 1s(intercept term) 2-The time covariate (0s and 1s) 3-The group covariate (2s and 1s,but in my table group 1 in the first, I think maybe it upside down?So I used the code X before code[M,Y,ni],then it will be 1s and 2s) 4-The group and time interaction (It is also affected by the third column to change). Is my use correct here? I think it will be influn (5)Then I used voxel-wise mixed model analysis following Jorge's reply. lhstats = lme_mass_fit_vw(X,[1],Y,ni,lhcortex); CM.C = [0 0 0 1]; F_lhstats = lme_mass_F(lhstats,CM); (6)fs_write_fstats(F_stats,mri,'sig.mgh','sig'); How to do correction about the result 'sig.mgh'? May I use lme_mass_FDR or lme_mass_FDR2? How to do? And if I can have a file including clusters' massage like summary file? I can't do a mri_glmfit-sim or mc-z in QDEC, and FDR in QDEC, maybe the t-value to high,there are nothing left. Please give me some help.Thank you very much, and looking forward to your reply!

Hello, I'm completely new to brain imaging and freesurfer, and I can't seem to find a solution to the error that I have with recon-all. I didn't even get to skull stripping yet, and something's wrong with the talairach transform. I attached recon-all.log and talairach_avi.log in the e-mail. Thanks for your help in advance. Yuna

Freeview overlay, positive values only
by Rita Elena Loiotile 04 Jun '17

04 Jun '17

Hi, Is there an easy command to only load positive values of an overlay in Freeview. I know in tksurfer it's truncphaseflag. Freeview does have the "truncate" option in the surface pane of the GUI. But, I don't see a command line flag. I'm hoping there's a way that's not in the help documentation. Thanks! Rita

question in using qdec
by 王梓良 04 Jun '17

04 Jun '17

Dear FS experts I have two questions when I use qdec in group analysis. Firstly , when I press the button of ‘ set using FDR ’, there is no result left no matter how big the threshold is. But I notice the value in the color bar changes, the value is not consistent with the terminal. I don’t know whether there is something wrong. Besides, after pressFindClustersAndGotoMax button, we can get a Scatter plot, Can I calculate it correlation coefficient and p value in freesurfer. Thanks in advance Regards Ziliang Wang

by Juergen Haenggi 03 Jun '17

03 Jun '17

Dear FS experts I have a question wrt the label numbers in FreeSurferColorLUT.txt compared with those in aparc.a2009s+aseg.mgz. I noticed that the last ctx (GM) label in FreeSurferColorLUT.txt file is 12175 ctx_rh_S_temporal_transverse whereas in the aparc.a2009s+aseg.mgz file, the highest intensity (label number) is 12138. Where this difference come from?
