load_nifti.m - empty header
by Nadine Schlichting 19 Aug '14

19 Aug '14

Dear Freesurfers, I am struggling with a very basic step at the very beginning of my processing pipeline. This is what I've done: registered BOLD to anatomical data using bbregister, results checked with tkregister2 - all seems fine. Then I want to project BOLD data to the surfaces using mri_vol2surf - no error so far. BUT when trying to load the mri_vol2surf output into matlab (load_nifti.m) I get this error: *??? Attempted to access hdr.dim(2); index out of bounds because numel(hdr.dim)=0.* *Error in ==> load_nifti_hdr at 121* *if(hdr.dim(2) < 0)* *Error in ==> load_nifti at 80* *hdr = load_nifti_hdr(niftifile);* It seems that the hdr struct is completely empty. Thanks in advance for any kind of help, have a nice week, Nadine

Dear List I get the following error: „550 Failed to change directory.” I tried on two operating systems. The wget also doesn’t work. Says the file doesn’t exist. Do you get the same errors, or is it specific to my system? Best Lau

mismatch between FWHM data in fwhm.dat & specified smoothing kernel
by Vy Dinh 18 Aug '14

18 Aug '14

Dear Surfers, While running a mri_glmfit-sim (monte carlo simulation) for roi analyses generated using mri_glmfit, I encountered the following error code: ERROR: cannot find /Applications/MRI/freesurfer_5.30_x86_64/average/mult-comp-cor/fsaverage/lh/cortex/fwhm31/abs/th13/mc-z.csd I checked the fwh.dat file within my glm/ directories and realize that there is a discrepancy between the fwhm I set for the analyses and the fwhm in this file (which explains why I encountered the error above.) Can someone explain why there is a large discrepancy for these roi analyses (which is specified using the --label option)? What kinds of things can I do to run the monte carlo simulation appropriately? Thank you, Vy Dinh MD Candidate, Class of 2017 University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health

None region label number (color) not in FreeSurferColorLUT.txt
by Axelson, Eric D 18 Aug '14

18 Aug '14

I am trying to make a custom label color scheme and wanted to change the None. Region but the FreeSurferColorLUT.txt only lists the unknown region (0) rather than None. I replaced the unknown region label name with None. to no avail like this. Is the None. region a different label number and color code? 0 None. 120 120 120 0 1 bankssts 120 120 120 0 2 caudalanteriorcingulate 120 120 120 0 3 caudalmiddlefrontal 120 120 120 0 4 corpuscallosum 120 120 120 0 5 cuneus 120 120 120 0 6 entorhinal 120 120 120 0 7 fusiform 120 120 120 0 8 inferiorparietal 120 120 120 0 9 inferiortemporal 120 120 120 0 10 isthmuscingulate 120 120 120 0 11 lateraloccipital 120 120 120 0 12 lateralorbitofrontal 120 120 120 0 13 lingual 120 120 120 0 14 medialorbitofrontal 120 120 120 0 15 middletemporal 120 120 120 0 16 parahippocampal 120 120 120 0 17 paracentral 120 120 120 0 18 parsopercularis 120 120 120 0 19 parsorbitalis 120 120 120 0 20 parstriangularis 120 120 120 0 21 pericalcarine 255 0 0 0 22 postcentral 120 120 120 0 23 posteriorcingulate 120 120 120 0 24 precentral 255 192 203 0 25 precuneus 120 120 120 0 26 rostralanteriorcingulate 120 120 120 0 27 rostralmiddlefrontal 255 99 71 0 28 superiorfrontal 120 120 120 0 29 superiorparietal 240 128 128 0 30 superiortemporal 120 120 120 0 31 supramarginal 120 120 120 0 32 frontalpole 120 120 120 0 33 temporalpole 120 120 120 0 34 transversetemporal 255 69 0 0 35 insula 120 120 120 0 Eric Axelson Research Specialist Department of Psychiatry Iowa Neuroimaging Consortium<http://www.medicine.uiowa.edu/iowaneuroimagingconsortium/> University of Iowa 319-384-9206 eric-axelson(a)uiowa.edu<mailto:eric-axelson@uiowa.edu> ________________________________ Notice: This UI Health Care e-mail (including attachments) is covered by the Electronic Communications Privacy Act, 18 U.S.C. 2510-2521, is confidential and may be legally privileged.

Cortical thickness via freesurfer
by Laura Golz 18 Aug '14

18 Aug '14

Dear all. I have a question concerning the estimation of cortical thickness in freesurfer. My overall goal is the comparison of a patient and matched control group with VBM and cortical thickness. My first try was the recon-all with masked MP2RAGE UNI-Images. Unfortunately it executed with error due to a not successfull skull-stripping.... Secondly I was going to skull-strip in AFNI and feed the skull-stripped image to the recon-all, but unfortunately the skull-stripping in AFNI was better but not as good as hoped. Next idea now is using the output of the VBM8 of SPM. Is it possible to use the segmented grey matter image from SPM in the recon-all to calculate overall cortical thickness and which steps of the recon-all are needed to be excluded for that? I am basically not interested in white matter...is it needed in the algorithm in general? The step 15 starts with the wm edits. So in case I am able to use only the segmented grey matter image from the VBM toolbox to avoid needing to skull-strip, I need to start with the step 21 (autorecon2-pial) of the recon-all? Or is there a possibility to improve the skull-stripping somehow? I tried lowering the threshold by adding the watershed trying to be more liberal, but it did not work as I was hoping... Thank you all so much in advance! Best Regards, Laura

Steps for Longitudinal trac-all
by Chung, Yoonho 18 Aug '14

18 Aug '14

Dear FS experts. I am trying run trac-all - the longitudinal version - on the cluster and not by using the dmrirc file. I am looking at the 'trac-all -help' and also the wiki, but I couldn't find a flag or option where I could specify the use of unbiased-template (e.g. [subjectID-base]) and other steps that may be necessary for the longitudinal analysis. Could someone please provide the steps that is required for running the longitudinal stream using 'trac-all' ? Thank you very much. Best, Yoon

tracula longitudinal
by Dabbs (Kevin) 18 Aug '14

Getting ready to run longitudinal tracula. Does the sublist entries in the dmrirc.long file refer to the cross-sectional or longitudinal processed subject time points? set subjlist = ( huey-scan1 \ huey-scan2 \ dewey-scan1 \ dewey-scan2 \ louie-scan1 \ louie-scan2 ) Thanks, Kevin Dabbs Department of Neurology University of Wisconsin-Madison

Interpreting clusters 'holistically' vs in terms of max coordinates
by Francesco Puccettone 18 Aug '14

18 Aug '14

Hello, If a QDEC analysis returns a certain cluster as being significantly different between the groups (after MC correction) in terms of some measure, which part of this cluster's description should my interpretation of this result be based on: its spatial extent (how it looks when projected onto the template brain, and what your knowledge of brain anatomy makes of that) or the coordinates of its maxima (as reported in the terminal window)? For instance, my result cluster is labeled as the postcentral gyrus, I guess because that is the parcel that overlaps most with the cluster (or perhaps because that is where the maximum point of the cluster falls?!), but looking at the cluster, it clearly extends into the parietal lobe: So how does one go about describing this cluster and interpreting the meaning of the effect in a Discussion section? Should I focus on the postcentral gyrus label and link it to other PCG effects in the literature? Or should I instead try to find in the literature maxima coordinates that are similar to what I get here? Any help much appreciated! --Francesco
