Questions about beta.nii.gz
by Reza Rajimehr 31 Oct '15

31 Oct '15

Hi, I have two questions: 1) In an fMRI experiment, we have 64 stimulus conditions and a baseline condition. All conditions are presented in each run. After running the analysis: mkanalysis-sess -a category.rh -surface self rh -fsd bold -fwhm 3 -event-related -paradigm paradigm_category.par -nconditions 64 -refeventdur 1 -TR 2 -polyfit 2 -spmhrf 0 -mcextreg -per-run -force selxavg3-sess -s subj1sess1 -a category.rh We load beta.nii.gz in Matlab. It has 131546 rows corresponding to the vertices in rh, and 118 columns. The first 64 columns correspond to the stimulus conditions that we have. I guess the next 6 columns correspond to the motion regressors. What are the remaining 48 columns? 2) When we run selxavg3-sess with -run-wise: selxavg3-sess -s subj1sess1 -a category.rh -run-wise We have a beta.nii.gz file for each run. But this time, each beta.nii.gz file has 70 columns. Why the number of columns here is different from that in the beta file generated without -run-wise? Thanks for shedding light on this issue! Reza

OHBM white paper on best practices in Data Analytics and Sharing
by Thomas Yeo 31 Oct '15

31 Oct '15

Dear FreeSurfer List, In 2014 OHBM Council created the Committee on Best Practices in Data Analysis and Sharing (COBIDAS) to identify best practices of data analysis and data sharing in the brain mapping community. The COBIDAS committee has prepared a white paper organizing these practices and seek input from the OHBM community before ultimately publishing these recommendations. You can find the whitepaper here: http://www.humanbrainmapping.org/i4a/pages/index.cfm?pageID=3668. Feedback can be provided here: http://cobidas.wordpress.com/ Regards, Thomas

Free surfer dev env doesn't extract bvals/bvecs
by Emad Ahmadi 30 Oct '15

30 Oct '15

Hi Freesurfers, I’m using the dev env on Launchpad to analyze DTI dicoms using TRACULA. It cannot extract the bvecs from the dicom header since it gives me the following error: ERROR: Must specify input table of gradient vectors I’ve attached the TRACULA configuration file (dmrirc3.txt) and the log file. I would appreciate your help!

Re: [Freesurfer] lables id in a new aparc+aseg file, created from laus250 parcellation
by Peled, Noam 30 Oct '15

Hey Bruce, I meant for the Lausanne250 parcellation (http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0048121) The problem is with the #index column. To create a custom lookup table, I need to know what is the #index each label gets in the output file of mri_aparc2aseg. I want to users to be able to load this new mgz file into freeview with the right lookup table. Thanks, Noam On Fri, 30 Oct 2015, Bruce wrote: > what is the laus250 parcellation?

unit in 'search area' in the glmfit log
by Jeni Chen 30 Oct '15

30 Oct '15

Hello, When running the Clusterwise Correction for Multiple Comparisons, I used a label as a mask to restrict search area. I want to find out the size of that label, so I guess I can pull that information out from the "mri_glmfit.log", specifically under 'searchspace'? Also I only see a numerical value there, I assume it is in mm2? Thanks. Jeni

average z-score of each subject from a common cluster
by stdp82＠virgilio.it 30 Oct '15

30 Oct '15

Hi list,I have two queries, please. I'd like to have the z-score from my rsfMRI data (seed-analyis). 1) I have extract the z-score from the Vtx Max In details, after groups comparison analysis, I have opened the cache.th13.pos.sig.cluster.summary contained in group.diff folder and I have read the Vtx Max coordinates.Next, I have open the z.nii.gz of each subject and I have expected the z-score from the vertex which have the Vtx Max coordinates. Is this procedure corrected? 2) z-score of each subject from a common cluster I would like to use the cluster which shows the group difference (cache.th13.pos.sig.cluster.nii.gz) as ROI mask. Thus, I would extract from it the average of the z-score which is contained in each subject.How should I do? Thanks. Stefano

lables id in a new aparc+aseg file, created from laus250 parcellation
by Peled, Noam 30 Oct '15

30 Oct '15

Hey all, I used mri_aparc2aseg to map the cortical labels from the laus250 parcellation. Now I need to create a new lookup table, mainly for displaying the labels' names in freeview. How can I know what id each label gets in my new laus+aseg.mgz file? Thanks, Noam
