[Tracula] ERRORS when using trac-all -prep
by h21ms-utsumi＠jikei.ac.jp 01 Dec '22

01 Dec '22

External Email - Use Caution Dear Freesurfer experts I'm attempting to running TRACULA in a two subjects(one visit per subject and multiple deffusion scans per visit), as described on the TRACULA tutorial (https://secure-web.cisco.com/1YZplCc8ElxyKpvsfXb9OH_SNhToXmmPHixjCRlcZ51VHS…, https://secure-web.cisco.com/1nYtHW48eZdU7uUKv6TSjlFm9HP9CHGRmfSeoCOA7uunK3…, and https://secure-web.cisco.com/1i1x3WraESWH3k6zfmnPSieIq0qc66z7vq-nTTa6dKs81Q…) but for my subjects I get the following error when I run the trac-all - prep: cp dwi.nii.gz /media/sf_share\freesurfer\7.3.2/subjects/diffusion_ tutorial/trc/subject1/dmri/data.nii.gz cp: cannot stat 'dwi.nii.gz': No such file or directory. I checked the "dmri" directory and found that "data.nii.gz" was missing and "dwi.nii.gz " was there. I've searched the archive list and I found the following two things; the dwi.nii.gz file is the DWI after all corrections have been made and the data.nii.gz file is a symbolic link to the other, so they should be the exact same file. (https://secure-web.cisco.com/1qq_o3GFIoLx7Luv5Fgj2ZN5KBHCJCZzPPrZqzLzT3BdzI…) the data.nii.gz file is necessary for the process of "trac-all -bedp", not "trac-all -prep." (https://secure-web.cisco.com/1pjKE3HFIeU-FqIoHgU1xkoI3rom-BBboaeTQQ7MDiNVT7…) However, no similar errors have been reported. Does anyone have any thoughts on how to trouble-shoot this one? Also, Ive attached the dmrirc. tutorial, trac-all.log, pre-diffusion_tutorial_tree.text, and post- diffusion_tutorial_tree.text in case it's of any use. Best regards, Tomohiro Utsumi. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------- Tomohiro Utsumi, PhD Student.

External Email - Use Caution Hello Jacob, It looks like some digits at the end of "devel-2019128” are missing, but I read that to be a development build from December of 2019. If you look at the dates on the 7.X releases under https://secure-web.cisco.com/1UnwnrVRzttVZt3syMWUb0DaKV1piu03ood…, then a 2019 development build would pre-date the 7.X releases listed there, i.e.,7.1.1 in 7/20207..2.0 in 7/20217.3.2 in 8/2022 We don’t in general recommend use of development builds unless there is a feature or bug fix you need that is in a development build newer than the current release.  Release builds are preferable because they have gone through more testing compared to development builds. We also note the following on the page above when considering upgrading to a new release, Important Note: When processing a group of subjects for your study, it is essential to process all your subjects with the same version of FreeSurfer, on the same OS platform and vendor, and for safety, even the same version of the OS. While we continue to work to ensure that results match across platforms, there are none-the-less system-level libraries that are OS dependent. An exception to this rule is that you may view and edit files across any platform or version, and run some post-processing tools (outside the recon-all stream) if you check with us first (for instance you may run the longitudinal processing with newer versions). There is a link to the release notes on that page.  Since you have 7.3.1 you could try that, but I suspect recon-all results won’t be exactly the same.  Maybe first try it out on just 1 subject.  Hope this helps. - R.

Creating or Using Alt Templates
by Olivier Brown 29 Nov '22

29 Nov '22

External Email - Use Caution Dear Freesurfer experts, I am using a pediatric sample for my study. I understand that the default template has been used with younger samples in the past. However, is there a command or flag to input an external template, such as the MNI? Otherwise, is there a method for creating my own template using the acquired imaged with Freesurfer? I cannot seem to find many resources online for selecting alternate templates in the preprocessing steps of recon-all. Warm regards, Olivier Brown

time-series from Yeo's Network components
by stdp82＠virgilio.it 29 Nov '22

29 Nov '22

External Email - Use Caution Hi list, I would extract the rs-fMRI time-series from spitted components of Yeo's 7 Network Atlas (fsaverage5). To this aim, I'm planning to convert the "fmcpr.odd.sm0.fsaverage.lh.nii.gz" (obtained by preproc-sess) on fsaverage5. However, the fmcpr.odd.sm0.fsaverage.lh.nii.gz should still include some nuisance variables (CSF, the white matter, motion, first 4 time points). To address this issue, is it corrected to apply the command lines reported below? mkanalysis-sess -analysis fc.noseed.surf.lh -surface fsaverage lh -fwhm 0 -notask -nuisreg vcsf.dat 5 -nuisreg wm.dat 5 -polyfit 5 -nskip 4 -mcextreg -fsd rest -TR 1.67 -per-run -hpf 0.01 -lpf 0.1 -nowhiten mkanalysis-sess -analysis fc.noseed.surf.rh -surface fsaverage rh -fwhm 0 -notask -nuisreg vcsf.dat 5 -nuisreg wm.dat 5 -polyfit 5 -nskip 4 -mcextreg -fsd rest -TR 1.67 -per-run -hpf 0.01 -lpf 0.1 -nowhiten selxavg3-sess -s subj_folder_name -a fc.noseed.surf.lh -overwrite -no-con-ok selxavg3-sess -s subj_folder_name -a fc.noseed.surf.rh -overwrite -no-con-ok Thanks Stefano

Tracula multiple fatal errors: Eddy and MRI binarize (thalamic segmentation)
by Ward Deferm 29 Nov '22

29 Nov '22

External Email - Use Caution Dear Freesurfer developers, I am attempting to perform tracula on a single participant but i am running into multiple fatal errors during trac-all prep. The first fatal error is this one : eddy_openmp --imain=/Users/r0755008/Desktop/mri_data/TRACULA/NT001/dmri/dwi_orig_las.nii.gz --mask=/Users/r0755008/Desktop/mri_data/TRACULA/NT001/dmri/lowb_topup_brain_mask.nii.gz --bvecs=/Users/r0755008/Desktop/mri_data/TRACULA/NT001/dmri/dwi_orig_las.bvecs --bvals=/Users/r0755008/Desktop/mri_data/TRACULA/NT001/dmri/dwi_orig_las.bvals --acqp=/Users/r0755008/Desktop/mri_data/TRACULA/NT001/dmri/acqp.txt --index=/Users/r0755008/Desktop/mri_data/TRACULA/NT001/dmri/index.txt --data_is_shelled --topup=/Users/r0755008/Desktop/mri_data/TRACULA/NT001/dmri/topup --out=/Users/r0755008/Desktop/mri_data/TRACULA/NT001/dmri/dwi eddy_openmp: Command not found.

If i change the config file to set doeddy = 1 to work with eddy correct this error disappears. But I would prefer to use eddy here instead is there any way to fix this. Further along i get another fatal error in the mri binarize part of the code which is related to a previous issue found in the mailing archives (https://secure-web.cisco.com/1eL0pyxEECqHmJx6yIaWdwio_XR8d47T_BB4CncFLEYAt8… Applying LTAtransformInterp (resample_type 0) writing to /Users/r0755008/Desktop/mri_data/TRACULA/NT001/dlabel/diff/White-Matter++.bbr.nii.gz... mri_convert -at /Users/r0755008/Desktop/mri_data/TRACULA/NT001/dmri/xfms/anatorig2diff.bbr.lta -rt nearest /Users/r0755008/Desktop/mri_data/TRACULA/NT001/dlabel/anatorig/aparc+aseg+thalnuc.nii.gz /Users/r0755008/Desktop/mri_data/TRACULA/NT001/dlabel/diff/aparc+aseg+thalnuc.bbr.nii.gz mri_convert -at /Users/r0755008/Desktop/mri_data/TRACULA/NT001/dmri/xfms/anatorig2diff.bbr.lta -rt nearest /Users/r0755008/Desktop/mri_data/TRACULA/NT001/dlabel/anatorig/aparc+aseg+thalnuc.nii.gz /Users/r0755008/Desktop/mri_data/TRACULA/NT001/dlabel/diff/aparc+aseg+thalnuc.bbr.nii.gz reading from /Users/r0755008/Desktop/mri_data/TRACULA/NT001/dlabel/anatorig/aparc+aseg+thalnuc.nii.gz... error: niiRead(): error opening file /Users/r0755008/Desktop/mri_data/TRACULA/NT001/dlabel/anatorig/aparc+aseg+thalnuc.nii.gz Darwin gbw-d-m0128.luna.kuleuven.be 21.6.0 Darwin Kernel Version 21.6.0: Thu Sep 29 20:12:57 PDT 2022; root:xnu-8020.240.7~1/RELEASE_X86_64 x86_64 trac-preproc exited with ERRORS at Tue Nov 29 13:24:02 CET 2022 I wanted to try the proposed solution but i have no permission to edit the files as specified in the thread. Would there be another fix for this. In the attachment you can find the log and error files of both runs (1 is the eddy error, 2 the mri binarize) and the config file I used.
