Hi list, during recon-all, I have this error in three subjects (some months ago I analyzed them with success): Loading source label.No such file or directoryERROR reading /Applications/freesurfer/subjects/subject_prova/Con13/fsaverage/label/lh.perirhinal.labelDarwin iMac-di-Stefano.local 12.5.0 Darwin Kernel Version 12.5.0: Sun Sep 29 13:33:47 PDT 2013; root:xnu-2050.48.12~1/RELEASE_X86_64 x86_64 recon-all -s SUBJECTS_DIR exited with ERRORS at Thu Jul 31 07:48:56 CEST 2014 This is the log file is attached.

freesurfer FSL installation
by mahsa abadian 31 Jul '14

31 Jul '14

I have installed freesurfer V5 on my system (ubuntu 12.4) and there is no FSL in this path /usr/local/freesurfer. I think FSL has not been installed ad I want to install FSL compeletly in ubuntu there are two questions: 1. Should I write any command in terminal before doing anything else? I have understand from mail-list that I must remove FSL but there is no FSL to remove. 2.Should I make any changes to my .tcshrc file( freesurfer environment variable) to install FSL? please guide me to install FSL. I would be very appreciate if anybody could help me. mahsa

Re: [Freesurfer] question regarding control point edits
by Adam Mezher 30 Jul '14

30 Jul '14

Hi Bruce, Thanks a lot for your help thus far. I've edited, computed, and applied the average bias to the error subjects' orig.mgz files. However, I'm not sure how to re-run all autorecon steps for these cases using the newly created orig.mgz (with bias applied). Thoughts? Thanks, Adam Hi Adam it depends on the source of the bias. If it is fixed in the coordinate system of the scanner you could correct a few, then try using mri_compute_bias and mri_apply_bias to see if it helps (it computes an average bias field in scanner coords, then applies it to a new dataset) cheers Bruce On Wed, 23 Jul 2014, Adam Mezher wrote: > > Hi Bruce, > > Yeah that was my thinking as well.

Anterior Temporal Lobe / Pial Reconstruction Troubles - part 1
by Las Blawimo 30 Jul '14

30 Jul '14

Dear Dr. Fischl, Thanks for your quick reply. Attached you will find some images (image 1&2) showing the issues we're having (I'll send a second e-mail including image 3&4). The images are as follows: 1.) sagittal_1353_norm2+3T_vs_default -> the v5.3 suggested norm2 flags (from the release notes) and the -3T flag vs. the default v5.3 pipeline. Blue is the norm2/3T flag pipeline, yellow is the default. 2.) sagittal_1353_wusl_vs_default->v5.3 using the -washu_mprage flag, obvious improvement in temporal lobe pial surface. Blue is -washu_mprage flag, yellow is the default v5.3 pipeline 3.) axial_1353_norm2+3T_white -> The white surface, which appears OK using v5.3 with the suggested norm2 parameters and the -3T flag 4.) axial_1353_wusl_white_error -> the white surface, with an obvious error in the lh_postcentral area, using the -washu_mprage flag. Let me know if you have any suggestions on other parameters I should try to improve the temporal lobe pial surface, without compromising the white matter surface reconstruction. Sincerely, Las

proportion of surface area of significant region
by Lars M. Rimol 30 Jul '14

30 Jul '14

Hi Bruce, I would like to be able to tell what proportion of a region of interest (ROI), as defined in atlas space by e.g. Desikan-Killiany, that shows a significant effect (based on a p-map). For now I overlay the p-map on the inflated surface of fsaverage in tksurfer and eyeball the proportion. Given a p-map, if I find the FDR threshold and identify the vertices within a given ROI that have a p-value greater than the threshold, then I can find the proportion of the ROI that is suprathreshold. E.g., I find 1986 suprathreshold vertices in "bankssts" out of 2137, so 93% of vertices in bankssts show a significant effect. My question is: Does that tell me anything about what proportion of the ROI's surface area is affected in atlas space? Obviously, if the faces were uniform, there would be a 1 to 1 relationship between #vertices and area. In the original tesselation of any dataset the size of the faces is uniform, but that changes with topology fix and deformation. I assume that is true also for fsaverage? (so I can't assume [#sig vertices] / [# tot vertices] == the proportion of the ROI's area that is significant in atlas space) I can find the surface area of the suprathreshold region for my sample (or any subset thereof) by looking at a mean area map. But I'm unsure how to do that for fsaverage itself? Is there information on regional surface area directly available? Or would using getFaceArea.m or getFacesArea.m or similar functions be a solution? Thank you! LMR --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi Lars, yes, the size of the faces is initially fixed - we cover the surface of each segmented wm voxel that borders non wm with 2 triangles. This gets changed by both the topology correction and the surface deformation. Note that the fsaverage surface area is less than any individual subject due to smoothing of the surface, which is why we include a correction factor in the fsaverage surfaces. cheers, Bruce On Wed, 16 Sep 2009, Lars M. Rimol wrote: Hi, I have a few questions about the surface processing stream: I compared ?h.orig.nofix, ?h.orig, ?h.sphere and ?h.sphere.reg files. The number of triangles and vertices changes between the first two but after that they're constant. But the numbers are different across subjects. For fsaverage the number of vertices is consistently 163 842 and the number of faces 327 680. Therefore, I assume that during the tesselation step in the processing stream, different subjects get different numbers of vertices due to differences in brain size. (And that the fsaverage numbers reflect average brain size.) Is that correct? And does this mean that the size of the faces/triangles is uniform across all locations and subjects, at least before the topology fix? Thank you! Lars M. Rimol -- yours, Lars M.

qdec problem
by Emilia Johansson 30 Jul '14

30 Jul '14

Hello, When I use qdec I can´t change the threshold values and I don't have the Design Matrix Type option (DODS, DOSS). I'm using ubuntu 13.10, freesurfer 5.3.0 and qdec 1.5. Any suggestions of what can be the problem? Do I need to download something more? I don't get any error messages when I run qdec. Best regards, Emilia

qdec _FDR report question (why the result of cluster stats table not match with the statistic map)
by Wang, Guoying 30 Jul '14

30 Jul '14

Dear Freesurfer experts, I am facing the problem to report the significant clusters which was calculated by QDEC. I did the group comparison between healthy and patients in cortical thickness, setting the threshold as FDR=0.05.however, the result of thickness map seems quite different from the contrast stats table. In the statistic map, Some area (e.g. occipital region, pre and post central gyri)showed clearly decreased In patients, but not shown in contrast output table. Why this happened? I really appreciated your help. Please find the corresponding file attached. [cid:image001.jpg@01CFAC1C.967AB680] [cid:image003.jpg@01CFAC1C.967AB680] Thanks for your help ! Best Guoying

Voxel Edit Clone Broken in 5.3.0
by Erik Kastman 30 Jul '14

30 Jul '14

Hi all, It looks like there’s a bug in Freeview 5.3 Voxel Edit - Clone - although the button is present, the drop down to choose a reference image is unresponsive - you can click it but it doesn’t provide a list of any of the loaded volumes - there’s no way to specify which reference to clone from. I noticed this was a new feature in 5.3 ( https://mail.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/pipermail//freesurfer/2014-February/036416… ) so I guess there are some more bugs to squash. Also, the tooltips are being displayed behind the Voxel Edit window, so you can only see them “poking out” from behind and not read them. Is there an easier fix than cloning from tkmedit? Please let me know if you need any more details. Thanks, Erik Kastman Environment: Freesurfer 5.3.0 Centos 6 - 64bit
