skullstrip result after autorecon1
by Wei-Ta Chen 18 Aug '11

18 Aug '11

Hi I did autorecon1 on T1 structural brain images acquired by GE magnet. However, a small piece of skull with dura still remained on brainmask.mgz (around the occiput), even after adjustment of watershed threshold to 10. (Some brain would loss when threshold was lowered to 7 or 5). I wondered if I can use the brush to erase these pieces then click Save Volume from the File menu before continuing autorecon2 and autorecon 3? Do I have to do this? If I can use the brush to edit brainmask.mgz, do you recommend that instead of watershed adjustment because it is more intuitive and I don't have to find the optimal threshold value of watershed. Is there any difference between their effects? Thanks for your time and patience answering these. Best, Wei-Ta

Problems Installing Freesurfer on an EC2 AMI
by Nolan Nichols 18 Aug '11

18 Aug '11

Hello, I'm trying to install FreeSurfer (freesurfer-Linux-centos4_x86_64-stable-pub-v5.1.0.tar.gz) on an Ubuntu-10.04 x86_64 AMI hosted on Amazon's EC2, but after following the installation instructions I am unable to complete the "Testing your Freesurfer Installation" section. I am not trying to use any of the visualization tools, just "recon-all -s bert -autorecon1" and the mri_tools, like mri_convert. I get the following error when I run "recon-all -s bert -autorecon1" (recon-all.log attached) ... Found 3 runs /usr/local/freesurfer/subjects/bert/mri/orig/001.mgz /usr/local/freesurfer/subjects/bert/mri/orig/002.mgz /usr/local/freesurfer/subjects/bert/mri/orig/003.mgz Checking for (invalid) multi-frame inputs... ERROR: input(s) cannot have multiple frames! /usr/local/freesurfer/subjects/bert/mri/orig/001.mgz has frames ... I saw a previous post with the multi-frame error ( http://www.mail-archive.com/freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/msg18444.html) and tried running "mri_info" to include in this email, but mri_info does not execute. Actually none of the mri_* tools are working and do not provide usage information when executed without any parameters. Any idea what I what I did wrong, or could this have to do with running freesurfer on EC2? Thanks for your help! Nolan

Avg.Thickness in a cluster
by Antonella Kis 18 Aug '11

18 Aug '11

Dear Doug, I just checked my results for the average thickness from each subject generated in the csdbase.y.ocn.dat file in different clusters (e.g. I have 5 clusters for p<0.05). For cluster #1 - posteriorcingulate, the average thickness for subject 1 is different from the average thickness value in the same region-posteriorcingulate, in the lh.aparc.stats for the same subject. I thought it should be the same. Why they are different? Is this right? MANY THANKS! Antonella

Trac paths error - bedpost files not found
by Moiyadi, Ammar 18 Aug '11

18 Aug '11

Hi Freesurfers - I am encountering an error in trac-all -paths where it cannot find the mean_dsamples.nii.gz file in my dmri.bedpostX directory since it was not created during the bedpost step. Because I ran the original bedpost (not the Seychelles version) I was wondering if this output file was specific to the other version. I have a feeling bedpost is not getting through its entire process but I don't receive any error messages as feedback - once it reaches 47 slices processed it starts queing the post processing stage and then the program ends. Is it possible that the post processing stage has not completed and as a result the required files are not being created? Currently I have the following files in my bedpost output directory: dyads1.nii.gz dyads2.nii.gz mean_th1samples.nii.gz mean_th2samples.nii.gz mean_f1samples.nii.gz mean_f2samples.nii.gz mean_ph1samples.nii.gz mean_ph2samples.nii.gz merged_th1samples.nii.gz merged_th2samples.nii.gz merged_f1samples.nii.gz merged_f2samples.nii.gz merged_ph1samples.nii.gz merged_ph2samples.nii.gz nodif_brain_mask.nii.gz It appears I am missing both the mean_dsample and dyads_dispersion files. Any ideas why these files haven't been created and when they should have been created during bedpost? Thanks for your help, Ammar Moiyadi

aseg.stats and wmparc.stats in FreeSurfer 5.1
by Tali Swisher 18 Aug '11

18 Aug '11

Hi all, In the aseg.stats and wmparc.stats output files in *version 4.2.0*, there were four volumes named: Left-Cerebral-White-Matter Left-Cerebral-Cortex Right-Cerebral-White-Matter Right-Cerebral-Cortex Does anyone happen to know what the corresponding volumes are in *version 5.1*? They don't appear in the same place or under the same name anywhere, hence the confusion. Thanks! Tali -- Talis M.
