mris_left_right_register not found
by Daya P 28 Oct '16

28 Oct '16

Hi All, I was looking to flip a label I created on the left hemisphere to the right hemisphere and I read in previous messages that mris_left_right_register and then mri_apply_reg might be an option. I can find mri_apply_reg as a command but not mris_left_right_register. The links to it previously posted are not available anymore. Is there an updated link available? Daiana

V6 beta update
by Bruce Fischl 27 Oct '16

27 Oct '16

Hi All, just an update on the status of the beta version of V6. We had hoped to have it out this week or early next week, but in our review of about ~250 hemispheres we found a small problem with one of them. We have a putative fix for the problem and are restarting our test suite. If it (finally!) passes everything we will have a version out in a couple of weeks. Sorry for the repeated delays, but we are doing everything we can to ensure that it will work well when we release it cheers Bruce

Hi all, How can I use mris_left_right_register, I tried downloading it but I get /home/daianapur/Documents/Dan/freesurfer/bin/mris_left_right_register: Permission denied. Is there an updated link that I can use to download it? Daiana

Re: [Freesurfer] White matter surface don't change after editing
by Cong 26 Oct '16

26 Oct '16

Hi Dear Bruce My problem is bilateral high signal grey matter in T1 image. For example, in uploaded subject at coordinate of TkReg RAS -59.00 3.00 5.00, white matter surface is too far out even though I have erased extra white matter voxel in wm.mgz and rerun. Another problem is grey matter surface bend inward, for example at coordinate of TkReg RAS -61.00 3.00 -14.00. I tried to use expert options to improve min_border_white and max_gray but couldn’t get satisfied surface. So I want to know whether freesurfer can fix these two problems and how. I’m sorry to occupy you so much time. Thanks very much.

Protocol for Ventricle Segmentation
by Tamara Tavares 25 Oct '16

25 Oct '16

Hello, I am wondering where I find the protocol used to segment the ventricles for Freesurfer version 5.1. Looking at the citations in Fischl et al 2002, I have found some information regarding the segmentation of the surfaces and some subcortical areas but not the ventricles. I was hoping to compare the segmentation protocol Freesurfer uses with another program. Thank you in advance for your help! Tamara

TRACULA longitudinal stream: using multiple configuration files?
by j.oschwald＠psychologie.uzh.ch 25 Oct '16

Hi Freesurfer users I wonder wether it makes a difference when using longitudinal TRACULA if all timepoints are run within one process (1 configuration file including all three timepoints) or if it is possible to split it into several independent processes (with several different configuration files - one per time point)? Thank you for your help. Jessica

3D Mesh of hemispheric surfaces does not match space of acquisition sequence
by Conrad Christoffer Prillwitz 25 Oct '16

25 Oct '16

Dear Freesurfer-Expert, We are currently trying to develop a 3D-Model from MRI data using combined files from Freesurfer and FSL. For this purpose we run recon-all on our subject and furthermore get some ROIs from FSL-based scripts. When visualizing the Freesurfer surfaces together with the FSL ROIs in any 3D modelling software (like e.g. Meshlab or 3D Slicer), there seems to be a space mismatch meaning: the FSL-based ROIs lie more inferior relative to the Freesurfer surfaces than they should (a shift in any other direction might be there but is at least not visible by eye; see attached screenshot). If we further add a single 2D slice of the original T1.mgz file to the 3D model, it seems to be consistent with the spatial position of the FSL ROIs, while the Freesurfer surfaces are clearly shifted (at least in z-direction; see attached screenshot). However opening the surfaces and the T1.mgz in freeview instead of 3D-Slicer, the spatial position fits. Do you have any idea of why this is the case or even more important, how to bring both structures in the same "space"? As we need to continue modelling in 3D-Slicer, we are looking for a way to correct the spatial shift independent of freeview. We are very thankful for any input on this matter!

Group analysis in repeated measures anova
by Greenberg, Jonathan 25 Oct '16

25 Oct '16

Dear Freesurfer users I am trying to examine differences between 3 groups in surface thickness and volume over three time periods (pre-intervention, post-intervention, and 6-month followup). Previously, when only the first 2 time points were available, I followed the instructions for paired analysis detailed in https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/PairedAnalysis. In the FSGD file, Group was the only Class. Now that I have 3 time points, I am trying to follow the instructions for repeated measures anova detailed in https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/RepeatedMeasuresAnova. The FSGD file structure in this case is different, with each single participant having their own Class (i.e. in my case – 60 Classes for the 60 participants), and 2 variables contrasting the time points GroupDescriptorFile 1 Class Subject1 Class Subject2 Class Subject3 Variables TP1-vs-TP2 TP1-vs-TP3 Input subject1-tp1 Subject1 1 1 Input subject1-tp2 Subject1 -1 0 Input subject1-tp3 Subject1 0 -1 Input subject2-tp1 Subject2 1 1 Input subject2-tp2 Subject2 -1 0 Input subject2-tp3 Subject2 0 -1 Input subject3-tp1 Subject3 1 1 Input subject3-tp2 Subject3 -1 0 Input subject3-tp3 Subject3 0 -1 In this case – the design matrix is (Sub1) (Sub2) (Sub3) (V1) (v2) 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 -1 0 1 0 0 0 -1 0 1 0 1 1 0 1 0 -1 0 0 1 0 0 -1 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 1 -1 0 0 0 1 0 -1 My question is whether and how can I incorporate participants' group (a between-subject variable) into this FSGD file? Should 3 additional Classes simply be added, one for each group, thereby making the new FSGD file as follows GroupDescriptorFile 1 Class Group1 Class Group2 Class Group3 Class Subject1 Class Subject2 Class Subject3 Variables TP1-vs-TP2 TP1-vs-TP3 Input subject1-tp1 Subject1 Group3 1 1 Input subject1-tp2 Subject1 Group3 -1 0 Input subject1-tp3 Subject1 Group3 0 -1 Input subject2-tp1 Subject2 Group2 1 1 Input subject2-tp2 Subject2 Group2 -1 0 Input subject2-tp3 Subject2 Group2 0 -1 Input subject3-tp1 Subject3 Group3 1 1 Input subject3-tp2 Subject3 Group3 -1 0 Input subject3-tp3 Subject3 Group3 0 -1 and the matrix design as follows? (Group1)(Group2)(Group3)(Sub1)(Sub2) (Sub3) (V1) (v2) 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 -1 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 -1 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 1 0 1 0 0 1 0 -1 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 -1 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 1 0 0 1 -1 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 -1 Thank you Jonathan

difficulty opening fsdir on freesurfer linux
by miracle ozzoude 25 Oct '16

25 Oct '16

Hello Freesurfer team, I am having difficulty opening the fsdir folder on freesurfer linux version (linux-centos_x86_64-stable-pub-v5.3.0). First, I preprocessed it using the command "recon-all -all -i s fsdir" to get the fsdir folder and it finished without errors. However, when I tried loading the fsdir folder " cd path directory/fsdir, next freeview" the program opened without the subject's fsdir folder (i.e., blank). Please do you know how I can fix it? I never had such problem with freesurfer mac version. Thanks. Best, Paul
