Group analysis
by deepa preeti 26 Oct '07

26 Oct '07

Hi all, Could you please tell us if the end result of GroupAnalysis on cortical thickness with mri_surfcluster command line - the coordinates in sig.cluster.sum is MNI coordinates or talairach coordinates? since I need to know Broadmann area to locate the significant region using the coordinates. 2. If I use FDR to get results at p = 0.05, where are the results stored so that I could report that a significant region for example, temporal pole 100 sq.mm has reduced to temporal pole ..70. sq.mm? Thanks Deepa.

Aligning Mprages from different days
by Trina Kok 26 Oct '07

26 Oct '07

Hi all, We have a number of MPRAGEs acquired from the same patient from different days and would like to align them. We really want a transform matrix out of the alignment just like how spmregister aligns functional data to anatomical and gives a matrix in register.dat. I was wondering if there is a way to use spmregister for this purpose. Or is there something else for aligning two anatomical images? Thanks!! Cheers, Trina

mris_anatomical_stats log problem

Hi all, I'm running into a problem with log output for mris_anatomical_stats. The console output seems fine, but log files are blank. The command: ($SUBJECTS_DIR = /space/colossus/7/users/MSpect) mris_anatomical_stats -t lh.thickness \ -label lh.cortex.label \ -nsmooth 15 \ -log ${SUBJECTS_DIR}/001_MEF_A/stats/lh.anat_stats.15.log \ 001_MEF_A lh The output: outputting results to /space/colossus/7/users/MSpect/001_MEF_A/stats/lh.anat_stats.15.log... reading volume /space/colossus/7/users/MSpect/001_MEF_A/mri/wm.mgz... reading input surface /space/colossus/7/users/MSpect/001_MEF_A/surf/lh.white... reading input pial surface /space/colossus/7/users/MSpect/001_MEF_A/surf/lh.pial... reading input white surface /space/colossus/7/users/MSpect/001_MEF_A/surf/lh.white...

Cerebellum Segmentation
by Pedro Paulo Oliveira Jr 26 Oct '07

26 Oct '07

Yesterday I gave a course on FreeSurfer basics + usage for our Radiology department in São Paulo University. Two questions that I was not able to answer was: 1) When will the source code of FreeSurfer be released? 2) Is there some plan to include the cerebellum in the automatic parcellation/segmentation? I think last question about this in this list was in 2005. Thanks Pedro Paulo Jr.

skull strip problem
by Michael Harms 25 Oct '07

25 Oct '07

Hello, We have a subject processed in V4 for which T1.mgz looks fine (white matter ~ 110; no obvious artifacts), but the brainmask.mgz is basically all zeros (except for a section of the background in slices 200-255 of the coronal view). The recon-all.log file is attached. I don't know if the problem is with the derivation of talairach_with_skull.lta that is used in 'mri_watershed' in V4, or if the issue occurs in 'mri_watershed' itself. (NB: There are a lot of "ambiguous basin" messages as part of the 'mri_watershed' output). How do you check the accuracy of talairach_with_skull.lta? Any other suggestions (particular options to change for the watershed...)? thanks, Mike H. -- Michael Harms, Ph.D. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Conte Center for the Neuroscience of Mental Disorders Washington University School of Medicine Department of Psychiatry, Box 8134 Renard Hospital, Room 6615 Tel: 314-747-6173 660 South Euclid Ave. Fax: 314-747-2182 St. Louis, MO 63110 Email: mharms(a)wustl.edu --------------------------------------------------------------------

talairach failure detection
by Michael Harms 25 Oct '07

Hello, Thought that this might be of interest: We've found a case for which the talairach.xfm is grossly wrong (checked using tkregister2) but the automatic-failure detection of version 4.0.1 indicated no problems. #-------------------------------------------- #@# Talairach Failure Detection Thu Oct 25 12:29:08 CDT 2007 /disk/conte_raid1/freesurfer/HASD_mprage_NOTDONE/010502_61774/mri talairach_afd -T 0.005 -xfm transforms/talairach.xfm talairach_afd: Talairach Transform: transforms/talairach.xfm OK (p=0.2262, pval=0.0169 >= threshold=0.0050) #------------------------------------------ Is this something that anyone else has noticed so far? thanks, Mike H. -- Michael Harms, Ph.D. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Conte Center for the Neuroscience of Mental Disorders Washington University School of Medicine Department of Psychiatry, Box 8134 Renard Hospital, Room 6615 Tel: 314-747-6173 660 South Euclid Ave. Fax: 314-747-2182 St. Louis, MO 63110 Email: mharms(a)wustl.edu --------------------------------------------------------------------

Support for the curv format as a target was added to mri_surf2surf in freesurfer v4.0. For your version, you can just exclude the -tfmt curv parameter.

stats for average subject...
by Cameron Ellis 25 Oct '07

25 Oct '07

Hi, Does anyone know if it is possible to generate an aparc.stats file for an average subject? mris_anatomical stats does not seem like it will work because it requires wm.mgz which is not generated in the make_average_subject process. I would like to find the number of vertices and the surface area of each hemisphere. I think the average surface area can be found in the make_average_subject log file but I cannot find the number of vertices there. Any suggestions? Thanks, Cameron

Incorrect results after re-run.
by zheng.hui＠singhealth.com.sg 25 Oct '07

25 Oct '07

Hi, I did some editing, add in control points and edit pial surface on one set of our data on the left hand side of the screenshot attached, and re-run recon-all -autorecon2 -autorecon3 -s subjID The result turned out to be wrong as shown in the right hand side of the screenshot. The algorithm worked well at the temporal lobe where control points were added, but it failed at the superior part. Can you suggest why it is so? Thanks Zheng Hui
