Recon-all failing with pre-skullstripped input data (mri_em_register can't find brainmask.mgz)
by James Hengenius 29 Dec '23

29 Dec '23

External Email - Use Caution Hello FS experts, I downloaded some anatomical data. I have defaced full images and pre-skullstripped images for each participant. I tried the defaced images first, but FS skullstripping looks a little off (possibly because the defacing hides bits of the cranium in some images and causes problems in mri_watershed). So I would like to use the pre-skullstripped files as my initial inputs. I have placed the pre-skullstripped file for each participant in $SUBJECTS_DIR/$subjid/mri/orig/. Each participant's skullstripped input volume is named 001.mgz. I then submit the following command in a script to my slurm queue (after setting appropriate FS env vars), where the script input ${1} is the $subjid mentioned above: recon-all \ -subject ${1} \ -all \ -openmp 40 \ -noskullstrip The output log from FS ends with the following error. The function mri_em_register seems to be looking for brainmask.mgz, and fails to open it. If the input image is already extracted from the skull, do I need to manually call it brainmask.mgz rather than 001.mgz? Or am I missing something else in my function call (like order of flags)? Does -noskullstrip need to come before -openmp, for example? Thanks! Jim H.

Brainstem segmentation without pre-processing
by Ganjizadeh, Ali, M.D. 28 Dec '23

28 Dec '23

External Email - Use Caution Good evening, I am trying to work with segmentBS.sh. I want to pass my .nii.gz files that are already pre-processed with HD-BET, but I don't want to use recon-all as the first step because it takes a lot of time. I also tried recon-all -autorecon2 and 3, but it resulted in an error. Is there any specific command that I will be able to pass my files directly to segmentBS.sh? Or is there any command for recon-all to only make subjects without processing or fast processing?

Re: [Freesurfer] segmentBS.sh not found

External Email - Use Caution  On linux, that file is under $FREESURFER_HOME/bin and will be found in your PATH after you setup the Freesurfer environment, e.g. for the 7.2.0 release installed via the .rpm file, you setup the environment with, $ export FREESURFER_HOME=/usr/local/freesurfer/7.2.0-1 $ source $FREESURFER_HOME/SetUpFreeSurfer.sh -------- freesurfer-linux-centos7_x86_64-7.2.0-20210720-aa8f76b -------- Setting up environment for FreeSurfer/FS-FAST (and FSL) FREESURFER_HOME   /usr/local/freesurfer/7.2.0-1 FSFAST_HOME       /usr/local/freesurfer/7.2.0-1/fsfast FSF_OUTPUT_FORMAT nii.gz SUBJECTS_DIR      /usr/local/freesurfer/7.2.0-1/subjects MNI_DIR           /usr/local/freesurfer/7.2.0-1/mni $ which segmentBS.sh /usr/local/freesurfer/7.2.0-1/bin/segmentBS.sh $ segmentBS.sh -h      ERROR: cannot find Matlab 2014b runtime in location:      /usr/local/freesurfer/7.2.0-1/MCRv84… rest of output deleted .. So if you have not already installed the MATLAB runtime environment for the segmentBS.sh script, then you need to run the Matlab install script we provide.  For the Freesurfer install under /usr/local on linux, the Matlab install needs to be done with root/admin privileges which you can try via the sudo option, $ cd $FREESURFER_HOME/bin$ sudo  FREESURFER_HOME=$FREESURFER_HOME  ./fs_install_mcr  R2014b … you will see output from downloading and installing the matlab runtime under /usr/local/freesurfer/7.2.0-1/MCRv84 …You should follow the instructions from the script output about how to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH, e.g., On the target computer, append the following to your LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable: /tmp/tmp.e23XcWLTeV/install-target/v84/runtime/glnxa64:/tmp/tmp.e23XcWLTeV/install-target/v84/bin/glnxa64:/tmp/tmp.e23XcWLTeV/install-target/v84/sys/os/glnxa64: Your paths may be different, but you would modify the LD_LIBRARY_PATH setting as follows; I just cut and pasted the /tmp/* paths anover after "export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:”, $ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/tmp/tmp.e23XcWLTeV/install-target/v84/runtime/glnxa64:/tmp/tmp.e23XcWLTeV/install-target/v84/bin/glnxa64:/tmp/tmp.e23XcWLTeV/install-target/v84/sys/os/glnxa64 You could follow the same instructions as listed above for the 7.4.0 release, i.e.. change 7.2.0 to 7.4.0 in all the commands (and corresponding output should list 7.4.0 instead).  The segmentBS.sh in 7.4.0 might ask for a newer Matlab version like MCRv97.   In that case, the sudo command to run the fs_install_mcr script would be,$ sudo  FREESURFER_HOME=$FREESURFER_HOME  ./fs_install_mcr  R2019b Once Matlab runtime is installed, try running segmentBS.sh again, $ segmentBS.sh -h  Directory of subject to process:    /usr/local/freesurfer/7.2.0-1/subjects/-h does not exist So change SUBJECTS_DIR to the path containing the subject data you want to process, $ export SUBJECTS_DIR=/path/to/my/subjects … then try running again ... - R.

segmentBS.sh not found

External Email - Use Caution Greetings, I have tried FreeSurfer 7.4.1 and 7.2.0 for CentOS7. But neither of them has segmentBS.sh in the files. Could you help me to find the file? I want to pass T1 MRIs (in which the skull is removed already) and get brain stem segmentation only. Could you explain what the fastest command is to do this job?

question regarding echo spacing and epi factor in TRACULA
by Hu, Bojia 22 Dec '23

22 Dec '23

Hello there, When we were trying the TRACULA tutorial, we noticed a discrepancy between the downloaded script and the wiki page. The echo spacing is set as 0.000689998 in the script, but it is exemplified in ms on the wiki page. For the epifactor, it is set as 139000.96811584961115829321 in the script, but on the wiki page it is 140. We are wondering which units we should be using for our dataset. Our protocol says that echo spacing is 0.55ms, and EPI factor is 116. Thank you for your help. Warm regards, Cynthia Hu

SUBJECTS_DIR writing permissions to run hippocampal/amygdala subfields
by Heese, E. van (Eva) 22 Dec '23

22 Dec '23

External Email - Use Caution Dear FreeSurfer support team, I am running into some issues regarding the mandatory SUBJECTS_DIR writing permissions when running the hippocampal and amygdala subfields segmentation functionality<https://secure-web.cisco.com/1GxtLaQMhc8dCLk40Dqxx5gjSJCGqioQxX7dJnX4YO4XoD…> (segmentHA_T1.sh). I am using FreeSurfer 7.3.2 on a slurm server. We have a shared FreeSurfer installation which is the FREESURFER_HOME location for many users, hence the absence of writing permissions. When running the subfield segmentations, I get this error: mv: replace 'imageDump.mgz', overriding mode 0444 (r--r--r--)? Even when overriding this (by typing y), the error results into issues with the segmentations because it cannot access the imageDump.mgz file and thus cannot use it as the starting template for the segmentation. This has been suggested and confirmed by Philipp Saemann and Juan Eugenio Iglesias in separate correspondence. The short-term solution offered by our server admin was to make a local copy of the FreeSurfer installation (to be able to get writing permissions) and set the FREESURFER_HOME variable to this local copy. This seems a bit devious, considering many FreeSurfer users might face a similar issue on shared clusters without writing permissions. Is there another workaround possible? Thanks for your help. Best wishes, Eva van Heese ______________________________________________________ AmsterdamUMC disclaimer : http://secure-web.cisco.com/181PMcOVEvWHrKhQAbaRQ6z6TR591a4a86em9ZjTSVgyLTj…

Would you recommend what I should change? Thank you so much! Following is the ouput in the commomand line window. Arguments seem correct; loading Python packages...
