Qdec questions
by sabin khadka 09 Dec '15

Hi all - When you get a significant cluster after doing monte-carlo simulation, we get peak vertex/Talairach coordinates and also saved in *summary files. Is there a way to find all the parcellated regions (Desikan, or, Destriuex) in the significant clusters? Thanks

Minc File Error
by MCLAREN, Donald 09 Dec '15

09 Dec '15

Zeke and others, I recently installed Freesurfer v6 ( freesurfer-Darwin-OSX-stable-v6-beta-20151015.dmg <ftp://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/pub/dist/freesurfer/6.0.0-beta/freesurfer-…>, MacOS 10.9.5, XQuartz 2.7.8), and Freeview always closes whenever I try to open a mnc file. Below is the output from the terminal after Freeview closes. Please let me know what I need to resolve the issue. The file is in fact a valid minc file as it can be opened by register and display. Please let me know if additional details are needed.

Question about Qdec
by levi solomyak 09 Dec '15

09 Dec '15

Dear experts, I've been attempting to generate a stats data table in qdec, but each time I get a "Index Error: list index is out of range" error. This is occurring when it is trying to parse the .stats file. I've made sure that the files all line up exactly with the qdec table and that SUBJECTS_DIR is properly sourced so I'm not sure how to fix this problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you, L S --

Re: [Freesurfer] Edit the number of segments in the segmentation of the corpus callosum

Hi Zeke, We tried the new version of mri_cc and we still do not get 12 segments of the corpus callosum when we open the aseg.12segmentsCC.mgz in a viewer. Could you send us the script you launch after the recon_all to get aseg.mgz files with 12 segments? basically the mri_cc Could you also please explain how to edit the ColorLut.txt file Finally, what is the precise script of the mri_segstats to generate stats tables.

3dClustSim and Gaussian filter width
by Emma Thompson 08 Dec '15

08 Dec '15

Dear Freesurfers, I am trying to use 3dclustsim in AFNI to determine the minimum number of voxel in a cluster to reach significance, my understanding is that in the command line the -fwhm s flag refers to the gaussian filter width and NOT the Gaussian Kernel, can anyone point me to how I might be able to obtain this for each hemisphere in freesurfer? I am using my own average brain that I created, but it would help to know how to do this for the fsaverage as well. Many thanks for your help! http://afni.nimh.nih.gov/pub../pub/dist/doc/program_help/3dClustSim.html
