FreeSurfer 6.0 hippocampal subfields error
by Rosanna Olsen 03 Feb '16

03 Feb '16

Dear Eugenio, I am writing because I am getting a mkdir error when I try to run the FreeSurfer 6.0 hippocampal subfields segmentation. I tried moving my installation of freesurfer to a local directory where I have write permission and I also made sure I had write permission in my subject's directory. Do you have any idea what might be causing the error? Thanks in advance!

getting vertex-wise correspondences across subjects
by John Griffiths 02 Feb '16

02 Feb '16

Dear surfers, Could you please help me with the following analysis workflow: I am doing an analysis where I identify patterns on the ?h.orig surfaces. What I want to do now is to resample these patterns over vertices, such that I have vertex-wise correspondence across subjects. I believe this essentially requires the construction of and projection to a group template (although I'm aware this could be done with e.g. fsaverage). Here is where I'm at: cd(freesurfer dir) 1. Read ?h.orig surfaces; compute patterns (...some in-house stuff...) 2. Write patterns out to .mgh file Matlab save_mgh(pat,outfile,eye(4)); Python nibabel.MGHImage(pat[:,numpy.newaxis,numpy.newaxis].astype(np.float32),numpy.eye(4)).to_filename(outfile) 3. Generate group template make_average_subject --out avgsub --sd <fs dir> -subjects subj1 subj2 subj3 .... 4. Register a single example subject to the new group template mris_register -curv subj1/surf/lh.sphere avgsub/lh.reg.template.tif subj1/surf/lh.sphere.reg.avgsub 5. Project the surface patterns identified above on to the new group template, so that the vertex values correspond across subjects, and can be averaged, statistically compared. etc. mri_surf2surf --srcsubject subj1 --srcsurfreg sphere.reg.avg_sub --trgsubject avg_sub --trgsurfreg sphere.reg --hemi lh --sval <pattern mgh file> --tval /tmp/test_avgsub.mgh However this breaks down at mri_surf2surf, and I'm not particularly confident that the earlier parts are exactly right either. Could you please show me what commands I should be using for the aims as described above? Many thanks, John -- Dr. John Griffiths Post-Doctoral Research Fellow Rotman Research Institute, Baycrest Toronto, Canada and Honorary Associate School of Physics University of Sydney

PostDoc at UC San Diego - Epilepsy and Brain Tumor Research {Disarmed}
by Leyden, Kelly 01 Feb '16

01 Feb '16

Hello FreeSurfers, I am writing on behalf of Dr. Carrie McDonald to advertise a Postdoctoral position with our lab at UC San Diego. Location: UCSD Multimodal Imaging Laboratory (MMIL) UCSD Center for Translational Imaging and Precision Medicine (CTIPM) Start date: As soon as possible Seeking a full-time postdoctoral scholar to work with a multidisciplinary team of scientists on projects related to the use of multimodal imaging for improving cognitive and health outcomes in patients with epilepsy and primary brain tumors. Our multimodal imaging team includes full-time faculty from Psychiatry, Radiology, Neurosciences, and Radiation Oncology. This group of researchers and clinical investigators are primarily focused on integrating research imaging tools into the clinical work flow to directly and immediately improve patient outcomes. The scholar will work closely with other postdoctoral fellows, medical residents, graduate students, research assistants, and faculty members to help develop methods, analyze structural, diffusion, and functional (fMRI) imaging data, prepare manuscripts and assist with grant applications. The fellow should have strong programming (i.e., MATLAB) and writing skills, experience in neuroimaging or a related field, and a strong interest in pursuing an academic career path. Applicants with a strong background in bioengineering, cognitive science, and/or experience working with neurological populations are encouraged to apply. For any addition questions or to apply for the position, please send CV and cover letter to Dr. Carrie McDonald (camcdonald(a)ucsd.edu) Thank you, Kelly Neuroimaging Research Associate Multimodal Imaging Laboratory University of California San Diego

Error on Linux
by Ankita Chatterjee 30 Jan '16

30 Jan '16

Hello, I am trying to run freesurfer on a machine I got access to that has Ubuntu (14.04) on it. When I run the tutorials and try to run qdec or freeview, I get this error - qdec.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libjpeg.so.62: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory I tried running sudo ln -s libjpeg.so.8 libjpeg.so.62, but it says libjpeg.so.62 already exists. Any ideas? I ran tkmedit and tksurfer and those run fine - only freeview and qdec are giving this error. Thanks! Ankita
