Converting volume from fsaverage to subject space
by Omar Singleton 21 Mar '14

21 Mar '14

Hello Freesurfers, I am interested in taking a volume file that is in fsaverage MNI305 space and converting this volume to each subject's volume. How can this be done? Thanks! Best, Omar

mris_preproc patch
by N. Medic 21 Mar '14

21 Mar '14

Dear Doug, I would need the mris_preproc patch, however the link provided (ftp://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/transfer/outgoing/flat/greve/mris_preproc) is not working. Is there another way of getting the patch (rather than downloading the new version of FreeSurfer)?

Re: [Freesurfer] Pial surface area
by Anita van Loenhoud 21 Mar '14

Hi Bruce, The wm.mgz was created a while ago with an older version, by another student. At the moment I use v5.3.0. Should I recreate wm.mgz with this more recent version, or is there another option? Thank you, Anita

mri_convert .tar.gz files of dicoms?
by Nate Vack 21 Mar '14

21 Mar '14

Hi, I'm testing mri_convert for our dicom conversion needs; one thing that would be fantastic is to be able to feed it a .tar.gz (or .zip) containing a dicom series we'd like to convert. Is there a way to do that? Alternately, if there were a way to make it use stdin, I could just pipe the output of tar to it. Thanks! -Nate

combine FEAT data with inflated ANATOMY to measure distances
by Milde, Christopher 21 Mar '14

21 Mar '14

Dear Surfers, At moment I'm dealing with a huge dataset, preprocessed (with and without smoothing) and statistically analyzed in FSL FEAT. I used the reg-feat2anat to project functional EPI on inflated MPRAGE (recon-all). Because I'm interested in measuring Euclidian distances between peak voxels, I want to project FEAT EPI-data on cortical flat maps (mris_flatten) or spherical surfaces. è Is it possible to project FEAT-data on flat_maps? è Does mris_pmake* works equally fine on different projections of the EPI to ANATOMY (sphere, flat map) to measure peak/vertex distances? *https://mail.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/pipermail//freesurfer/2011-April/017866.html<https://mail.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/pipermail/freesurfer/2011-April/017866.html> I'm a quite Surfer-newby. So sorry for that maybe stupid question... Thank you in advance, Christopher Christopher Milde, M.Sc. Biol. Institute for Cognitive and Clinical Neuroscience Central Institute of Mental Health Square J 5 68159 Mannheim, Germany Phone: +49-621-1703-6313 E-mail: christopher.milde(a)zi-mannheim.de Homepage: http://www.zi-mannheim.de/ Office: Forschungs- und Verwaltungsgebäude, Room 230

Pial surface area
by Anita van Loenhoud 21 Mar '14

21 Mar '14

Hi mailinglist, I want to obtain aparc.stats for pial instead of white matter surface area. I read that I therefore should adjust mris_anatomical_stats. However, when I run this command separately, the following error occurs: cannot allocate memory Then I tried to put autorecon3 -parcstats in front in this command, but now it says: Flag mris_anatomical_stats unrecognized. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Anita

LME advice
by Eric Cunningham 20 Mar '14

20 Mar '14

Hello Freesurfer experts, I am getting some unusual results with the lme pipeline, and I would appreciate help with identifying the most likely step in which the problem may have originated. Running lme_fit_FS.m on a single vertex, followed by lme_F on the output of that (stats) yields a p-value of 0. This is because the fcdf function in matlab rounds to 1 if the F-value is big enough (in our case it rounds at about 80, and our F-value is 123). This being the case, we are trying to determine whether this is (1) a problem with the data, (2) a problem with the script somewhere, or (3) a system setting I don't know about. I'm not sure if you have enough information, but can you tell me if the F-values and Beta values look possible (reasonable?)? Thanks for any advice you can provide. -E Starting Fisher scoring iterations Likelihood at FS iteration 1 : 484.5267 Gradient norm: 53.7987 Likelihood at FS iteration 2 : 484.5984 Gradient norm: 1.3858 Likelihood at FS iteration 3 : 484.5985 Gradient norm: 0.022222 Likelihood at FS iteration 4 : 484.5985 Gradient norm: 0.00056884 Total elapsed time is 0.24038 seconds stats = Bhat: [7x1 double] CovBhat: [7x7 double] bihat: [1x93 double] Covbihat: [93x1 double] phisqhat: 0.0110 SIGMA: [345x5 double] W: [345x5 double] Dhat: 0.0213 X: [345x7 double] Zcols: 1 re: [345x1 double] ni: [93x1 double] lreml: 484.5985 st = 1 K>> stats.Bhat ans = 3.1531 -0.0559 0.0148 -0.0154 -0.0309 -0.0767 -0.0229 K>> -0.0559 K>> fstats = lme_F(stats,contrastmatrix) fstats = F: 123.4649 pval: 0 sgn: -1 df: [1 284.0811]

Overinclusion of brain volume during segmentation - Question
by Christina Chen 20 Mar '14

20 Mar '14

Hi! If the cortical surface outlines are fine, but there is an overinclusion of brain volume during segmentation, how should I fix this? Can we calculate brain volume based on the cortical surface outlines -- if so, how? Thanks! Christina

Recon process
by Lin, Amy (NIH/NIMH) [F] 20 Mar '14

20 Mar '14

Hello all, I think this is a fairly simple question, but I could not find an existing answer online. If I close out the terminal window while recon is running, will the process end? I've had the issue in the past where my computer has gone to sleep and the process ends up exiting with error. Also, is it possible to rerun a recon command after a previous failed attempt without being prompted to delete the older files that had already been made? I know that usually if you attempt to rerun a recon command after you have already tried, you're usually prompted to remove the older files. This time around, I wasn't ever prompted to do that but the scripts show that the last time recon-all ran, it completed without error. Thanks very much!
