External Email - Use Caution Andrew might have a better way to do this, but you could try the following. Below you should substitute your base path to the freesurfer distribution for where /Applications/freesurfer/dev is used. 1) Setup your freesurfer environment with FREESURFER_HOME and source the setup script, e.g. zsh/bash, $ export FREESURFER_HOME=/Applications/freesurfer/dev$ source $FREESURFER_HOME/SetUpFreeSurfer.sh... output showing environment deleted ... 2) Download the tensorflow package, tensorflow-2.4.1-py3-none-any.whl, via the link, e.g. into $HOME/Downloadshttps://drive.google.com/file/d/15Qeve5FIA137KON67ehKIOyXy1N0PbAC/view?usp=sharing 3) Uninstall the existing tensorflow, $ sudo -H /Applications/freesurfer/dev/python/bin/python3 -m pip uninstall tensorflow 4) Install the downloaded tensorflow (this example assumes it is in your default Downloads folder = $HOME/Downloads). $ sudo -H /Applications/freesurfer/dev/python/bin/python3 -m pip install $HOME/Downloads/tensorflow-2.4.1-py3-none-any.whl 4) Check you have fspython in your path.  Then test the import succeeds and exit.$ which fspython/Applications/freesurfer/dev/bin/fspython$ fspython>>> import tensorflow... output deleted ...>>> ^D On Jul 25, 2022, at 11:27, Hoopes, Andrew <AHOOPES(a)mgh.harvard.edu> wrote:Unfortunately, tensorflow and M1 don’t mix well at the moment.

mri_jacobian: what are the correct files to list as arguments?
by Danielle Carrol 25 Jul '22

25 Jul '22

External Email - Use Caution Hello, I am trying to compute the Jacobian for use in VBM. I found the following command on the email archive: mri_jacobian <3d morph> <template volume> <output volume> I am assuming the 3d morph is the file mri/transforms/talairach.m3z, since this file provides the nonlinear warp. However, I am confused about which file should be the "template volume". Is this the final transformed/registered volume for each subject (i.e. ${SUBJECTS_DIR}/<subject name>/mri/brain.mgz)? Is it the fsaverage template $FREESURFER_HOME/subjects/fsaverage ? I am using version 6.0.0. Thank you, DC PhD Student University of Wisconsin-Madison

segment_subregions stats files missing?
by Alvarado, Luis 25 Jul '22

25 Jul '22

External Email - Use Caution Hi all, I ran the segment_subregions thalamus --cross on some of my subjects but I cannot find the *.stats files in the stats folder. I was wondering if I am missing something? I need the *.stats files to aggregate the results via asegstats2table to feed the mri_glmfit tool. Is there another way to do this without the *.stats files? I am using the freesurfer-linux-ubuntu20_x86_64-dev-20220716-015eeb0 build on Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS. Best, Luis

Re: [Freesurfer] Qdec: Can't find a usable init.tcl
by fsbuild 24 Jul '22

External Email - Use Caution Hello Rosa, The qdec program is deprecated in 7.X releases and is no longer maintained. In the 7.X releases, you can try using freeview for images and from the command line there are the mri* commands (mris_surf2surf, mri_glmfit, mri_glmfit-sim, etc.) for stream processing. If you still need to run qdec in the Freesurfer 6 distribution, then you could ask your IT department to create a virtual machine or container to host an older copy of your linux OS that supports the correct version of tcl/tk for Freesurfer 6.X and install the Freesurfer 6 distribution in it.   Linux has quemu for built in virtualization which you may already have installed on your server(s).  There is also docker for containers and VirtualBox for virtual machines which likewise can run an older version of an OS and run Freesurfer 6 in those.  Your IT group may support docker and/or VirtualBox as well. - R.

Recon All
by Amar Shukla 21 Jul '22

21 Jul '22

External Email - Use Caution Dear Sir, I am a PhD scholar using the freesurfer tool to conduct my research work. I tested the recon all method in the Free Surfer, and it was effective with the data set that was used by me. What are the exact default parameters for the different processes of recon all that were used in motion correction, intensity normalization, etc?. It would be really helpful if you could provide me with the link or the article where it is explained clearly, this will help me to get through these processes in more depth and in a more constructive manner. Although the Free Surfer website has an FAQ regarding this process, there are no clear explanations about what the default parameters are during recon all. -- With Regards, Amar Shukla PHD Scholar UPES
