ACFFWHM for surface-based analyses in FSFAST?
by Caspar M. Schwiedrzik 20 Sep '13

20 Sep '13

Hi Freesurfer Experts, mkanalysis-sess seems to default to a FWHM of 20 for the smooting of the ACF (in version 5.1). I was wondering whether it makes sense to use the same FWHM for volume and surface based analyses of functional data in FSFAST? I seem to remember that the autocorrelations differ between, e.g., grey and white matter, which might be a reason to use a different FWHM on the surface? Thank you very much, Caspar

Fwd: Brainhack 2013 Stipend Program (DEADLINE TO APPLY: 11:59PM EST SEPTEMBER 27, 2013)
by MCLAREN, Donald 20 Sep '13

20 Sep '13

Dear Colleagues, The Neurobureau <http://www.neurobureau.org> is excited to announce a stipend program for Brainhack 2013 <http://www.brainhack.org> (October 23-26 in Sevres, France (just outside of Paris). The stipend program was created following a generous grant from Siemens Healthcare to assist young investigators in attending Brainhack 2013. Without their support, the stipend program would not exist. The stipend program will provide at least 6 stipends for partial or full registration fees [if 24 attendees apply, you have a 25% chance of getting a stipend]. The exact breakdown of stipends provided will depend on the number of applicants and the cost of attending the conference for those applicants. The application for stipend requires: (1) A poster abstract (2) A 1-2 page Brainhack project proposal (pdf format) (3) NIH Biosketch/CV (pdf format) The Brainhack 2013 Organizing Committee will decide which applications will receive stipends based on their abstract and proposed brainhack projects. Details on Brainhack 2013 can be found here<http://www.brainhack.org/?page_id=27784> . The deadline to apply for one of the stipends is 11:59PM EST on September 27th. All decisions will be made by October 3rd and must be accepted within 24 hours of being awarded. If you have any questions please contact myself (mclaren.donald(a)gmail.com) or one of the organizers. Click here to apply. <http://www.brainhack.org/?page_id=40668> Good luck. Best Regards, Donald McLaren ================= D.G.

recon-all-hippo-subfeilds
by Anupa AV 20 Sep '13

20 Sep '13

Dear FS experts, I've a query regarding the recon-all analysis. I ran recon-all using the following command eg. recon-all -i location/nc.nii -s NC -all I got the analysis done. Now I'm interested to calculate the hippocampal structures. I knw the command line for that also recon-all -i location/nc.nii -s NC -all -hippo-subfields Problem for me is that I've 45 subjects. I ran recon-all without hippo-subfields commands. i.e. from motion correction to Ex-vivo Entorhinal Cortex Label rh. (log file) Is there any way to do hippo-sufields alone than running the whole steps again (which is very time consuming). Thanks in advance.

mri_glmfit without --cortex?
by Caspar M. Schwiedrzik 19 Sep '13

19 Sep '13

Hi FreeSurfer Experts, I am trying to run a group analysis with a custom fsaverage for which I do not have a cortex.label file. It seems that in version 5.1, --cortex is called by default. I did not find a flag to turn this off in the documentation or the help. Is there a way to run mri_glmfit without --cortex or an alternative version where this is turned off? Thanks, Caspar

Re: [Freesurfer] Editing WM
by Louis Nicholas Vinke 19 Sep '13

19 Sep '13

Hi Francesco, If it is the portion of the wm surface I have circled in red, then I'd suggest looking a couple slices anterior and posterior to the current slice and erase any other falsely labeled wm voxels on the wm.mgz, even if the wm surf (blue line) doesn't currently include them. FYI, I've cc'ed the freesurfer list so others can chime in. -Louis On Thu, 12 Sep 2013, Francesco Siciliano wrote: > Hi Louis, > > Thanks for the reply! I've attached a screen cap. Unfortunately, my cursor gets removed from screen caps, but I had the area highlighted with my cursor and the intensity was a value of 1, indicating that I had edited the area prior to running recon-all again.

Re: [Freesurfer] green layer in coronal view
by Louis Nicholas Vinke 19 Sep '13

Hi Francesco, I have never seen that before. Maybe Ruopeng knows what might be causing this? What's the exact command line you are using and does it appear right when freeview opens? -Louis On Wed, 18 Sep 2013, Francesco Siciliano wrote: > Hi Louis, > I have a quick question when you have a chance.

make_average_subject without aparc and talairach.xfm
by Caspar M. Schwiedrzik 18 Sep '13

18 Sep '13

Hi Freesurfer experts, I am trying to make an average surface from several monkey surfaces, and I ran into a problem with make_average_subject. Specifically, I do not have an aparc file nor a talairach.xfm. It seems that these problems have come up on the list before ( http://www.mail-archive.com/freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/msg15595.html) I tried to download make_average_surface.no-aparc, however, the link seems to be broken. Also, I couldn't find a solution to the missing talairach.xfm on the list. It would be great if you could provide me with a working link to make_average_surface.no-aparc; any suggestions regarding making an average surface without talairach.xfm would be appreciated. I already made a new template and aligned all individual surfaces to this template. Thanks! Caspar
