Problem Visualizing Hippocampal Subfield Segmentation in FreeView
by Juan Deliz 27 Nov '12

27 Nov '12

Hi FS community, I was trying to view the results of the hippocampal subfield segmentation but had trouble overlaying the subfields on the nu.mgz file. I tried letting it run for a while but it still does not work. Below I have included the commands I used in Terminal: [dyn-128-59-230-112:subjects/bert/mri] learninglab2% freeview nu.mgz -p-labels posterior_left_* posterior_Left-Hippocampus.mgz -p-labels posterior_right_* posterior_Right-Hippocampus.mgz -p-prefix posterior_ -p-lut $FREESURFER_HOME/FreeSurferColorLUT.txt 2012-11-27 19:18:38.964 freeview.bin[20154:607] invalid drawable 2012-11-27 19:18:38.969 freeview.bin[20154:607] invalid drawable 2012-11-27 19:18:38.987 freeview.bin[20154:607] invalid drawable 2012-11-27 19:18:38.989 freeview.bin[20154:607] invalid drawable 2012-11-27 19:18:39.006 freeview.bin[20154:607] invalid drawable 2012-11-27 19:18:39.008 freeview.bin[20154:607] invalid drawable 2012-11-27 19:18:39.025 freeview.bin[20154:607] invalid drawable 2012-11-27 19:18:39.027 freeview.bin[20154:607] invalid drawable QObject::connect: Connecting from QAbstractButton::toggled(bool) to COMPAT slot (QGroupBox::setShown(bool)) QObject::connect: Connecting from QAbstractButton::toggled(bool) to COMPAT slot (QGroupBox::setShown(bool)) CTABrgbAtIndexi: index -1 was OOB CTABrgbAtIndexi: index -1 was OOB Can not find index for color name left_CA2-3 CTABrgbAtIndexi: index -1 was OOB QThread: Destroyed while thread is still running I looked over the mailing list and saw that someone had a similar problem in the past and tried to follow that solution.

Re: [Freesurfer] Subgroup analysis

Hi Doug, Sorry the previous suggestion referred to a suggestion from Donald earlier in the thread as follows: "You might consider the contrast [0 1.5 .5 -.5 -1.5] across all 5 groups showing a linear effect of disease severity. The first column being controls." I will try that suggestion out, but I have also grouped all the patients and controls together in 1 group (as opposed to 5 different groups), and given that controls contains no endogenous factor giving them a covariate of 1, and then P1 a value of 2, P2 a value of 3, P3 a values of 4 and P4 a value of 5. There are good biological grounds to suspect that that the endogenous factor will increase linearly from P1 to P5, though the values 1 to 5 I have chosen are arbitrary. When I then run the GLM looking for correlation between dependent measure and this covariate, I see significant results in a similar (though more widespread) location compared to when I simply look for a difference between all controls and all patients (C v combined P1 to P4). Thus, I think (hope) the model has shown that Hopefully this is one valid way in which to show that it is the changes in the level of the endogenous factor contribute to the overall group differences (C v combined P1 to P4). Do you agree ? I will however try Donald's method as I also want to show that the interaction between age-thickness (that I see in C v combined P1 to P4) shows a linear effect across P1 to P4. Any suggestions for how I do that ? Thanks, M

Hi, Thanks for the reference and explanation of the subtle statistical inferences. It was very useful. You are right in what i am trying to show (c- controls, p1 to p4 patients with varying levels of endogenous factor) which is that when patients are subdivided into levels of endogenous factor there is correlation with the changes seen in dependent variables compared to controls. So far, C v whole P gp - differences seen in plausible areas. C v P1 (greatest endo factor) subgp - no differences C v P4 subgp (lowest endo factor) - differences seen in plausible areas. Given that it is not valid to compare c v p1 and c v p4 (and p1 v p4 shows nothing) is the following valid - perhaps it is similar to what you proposed: Consider c and p1 to p4 as one group of subjects (theoretically the only difference between subjects being level of endogenous factor) but assign each subject a variable which represents level of endoenous factor (c - 1 p1 - 2 p3 - 4 p4 - 5) - then run glm looking for correlation between endogenous factor and dependent variable. Is this very different to what you suggested and any less valid ? Thanks. M

Regarding freesurfer segmentations for longitudinal data
by Prasanna M 27 Nov '12

27 Nov '12

Hi, I work in the area of longitudinal shape analysis, and have used the longitudinal OASIS data in the past. I was trying to find freesurfer segmentations of structures for the OASIS data, but could only find them for cross-sectional ones. I write to you to ask if you're aware of segmentations made available for the longitudinal OASIS data, specifically the hippocampus regions? If not, could you point me to the best way possible to segment these for the longitudinal OASIS data? Thanks, Prasanna -- -- Let there be peace on earth... And let it begin with me.

Hi Negar, sorry about the delay. The first thing to do is to look at the orig.mgz to see if there is anything funny going on, maybe most of the image is dark with one very bright spot or some other distortion.

Re: [Freesurfer] fieldsign-sess problem in retinotopy
by Zhou, Wei 26 Nov '12

26 Nov '12

Hi Doug, I think I didnt explain clearly last time. Here's the thing: I have four runs: 2 eccen and 2 polars. I followed the process http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/FsFastIndividualRetinotopyAnalysis and I hope to view the result of an individual session, e.g. one polar, which could display the activations with different angles. What should I do after all the analysis is done? Or I should run a retinotopy analysis different from the link above. Thank you in advance. Best Wei ---- Hi Wei, do you have both polar and eccentricity? It looks like you only have polar. doug On 11/19/2012 01:39 PM, Zhou, Wei wrote: > Please find the Xtmp.mat in the attachment.Thank you, Doug. > Best > Wei > ---- > Can you send me the Xtmp.mat file? > dloug > > On 11/16/2012 01:01 PM, Zhou, Wei wrote: > > Hi Doug, > > > > It seems the previous fieldsign-sess problem is due to that I stored > > data on one server while freesurfer is on the other server. > > But when I put the data and freesurfer on the same server and run the > > retinotopy analysis again, it reported fail msg for "selxavg3-ses" : > > -- > > ntptot = 80, nX = 27, DOF = 53 > > Saving X matrix to > > > > /media/local_home/zhouw4/testf/retinotopy/SUBJ01/bold/rtopy.self.lh/Xtmp.mat > > Error using svd > > Input to SVD must not contain NaN or Inf. > > > > Error in cond (line 39) > > s = svd(A); > > > > Error in fast_selxavg3 (line 254) > > XCond = cond(XtX); > > --- > > I checked Xtmp.mat.

How to design the contrast matrix with 12 regressors?
by 李仕广 26 Nov '12

26 Nov '12

Dear FreeSurfers: I hope you can help me out with a problem in disgning my .mtx file. I want to examine the difference among three groups (HC group, EX group and PT group). Considing gender, I have six groups as similar as the example described inhttp://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/Fsgdf6G0V. But I want to correct for age. Then, I have 6 classes (two factors/three levels) and one covariate (age). How can I compare the difference among three groups (HC group, EX group, and PT group)? Could you please tall me how to design the contrast matrix with 12 regressors? Thanks a zillion times! Best wishes shiguangli

Re: [Freesurfer] fieldsign-sess problem in retinotopy

Hi Doug, Thank you for reply. As in rtopy.par the stimtype is either polar or eccen, I get separate f.nii files for eccen and polar and do one of the two at one time. Do you mean I should combine polar and eccen sessions into one f.nii? e.g. i want to do polar analysis whose rtopy.par file is polar, but I still need to put eccen session into f.nii with polar and then do the analysis? Best Wei ----------- Hi Wei, do you have both polar and eccentricity? It looks like you only have polar. doug On 11/19/2012 01:39 PM, Zhou, Wei wrote: > Please find the Xtmp.mat in the attachment.Thank you, Doug. > Best > Wei > ---- > Can you send me the Xtmp.mat file? > dloug > > On 11/16/2012 01:01 PM, Zhou, Wei wrote: > > Hi Doug, > > > > It seems the previous fieldsign-sess problem is due to that I stored > > data on one server while freesurfer is on the other server. > > But when I put the data and freesurfer on the same server and run the > > retinotopy analysis again, it reported fail msg for "selxavg3-ses" : > > -- > > ntptot = 80, nX = 27, DOF = 53 > > Saving X matrix to > > > > /media/local_home/zhouw4/testf/retinotopy/SUBJ01/bold/rtopy.self.lh/Xtmp.mat > > Error using svd > > Input to SVD must not contain NaN or Inf. > > > > Error in cond (line 39) > > s = svd(A); > > > > Error in fast_selxavg3 (line 254) > > XCond = cond(XtX); > > --- > > I checked Xtmp.mat.
