automated brodmann parcellation
by Corey Keller 16 Aug '11

16 Aug '11

Hi Freesurfers, I was wondering if you have come across a method to automatically parcellate the whole brain into Brodmann areas. I know the newest freesurfer version does this for several BAs but not all BAs have been incorporated. I was wondering if anyone knows of an existing Brodmann atlas (for example from Micron, AFNI, FSL, WFU_PickAtlas) that I can download and apply to my subjects' surfaces in freesurfer via mri_vol2surf? Thanks in advance. Best, Corey

Re: [Freesurfer] QDEC - generate stats data table error: cannot find /usr/local
by Jamaan Alghamdi 16 Aug '11

Hi Rajeev, Usually, this type of error is produced if stats file is missed, check if aseg. stats file is there in directory "/usr/local/freesurfer/subjects/140/stats" directory. If this file is missed in some subjects, you can add "--skip" to command line like; asegstats2table --subjects 01 02 03 .... --meas volume --skip --statsfile wmparc.stats --all-segs --tablefile .......

preproc-sess - cannot find AFNI command 3dvolreg
by Adam Nitenson 16 Aug '11

16 Aug '11

Hi Doug and Freesurfers, I encountered an error during preproc-sess (Stable 5) that I have never seen before: ERROR: cannot find AFNI command 3dvolreg The commands I entered were: setenv USE_STABLE_5_0_0 source /usr/local/freesurfer/nmr-stable50-env setenv SUBJECTS_DIR /cluster/roffman/users/Stable5_PerRun cd $SUBJECTS_DIR preproc-sess -s MTH20100AA -fwhm 5 -per-run I've run this set of commands many times without this problem, so did something change or am I missing something simple?

Large White Matter Areas Ignored In Surface Detection
by Christopher Luna 16 Aug '11

16 Aug '11

Hello Freesurfers, I'm putting *.IMG files into the program and after correcting talaraich transformations for them, I notice that when the reconstructions have completed, that there are entire lobes of white matter absent from the surfaces detected and from the wm.mgz file. I went through my hand at first to manually fill in the missing white matter for the first case, but after seeing how many were affected, I figured there was some setting I may be missing or some contrast level that may be off. I had tried using control points, but after following the WIKI instructions on regenerating surfaces after placing them, I found no significant difference in white matter detection. How do I ensure all of the white matter in my converted IMGs is identified? Thank you kindly, Christopher Luna MIT Brain and Cognitive Sciences, Class of 2012 Desimone Lab, McGovern Institute for Brain Research MIT Archery Club Alpha Kappa Psi Colony at MIT

QDEC - generate stats data table error: cannot find /usr/local

Hi all, I am new to this, and wonder if you could help me set this up please. OS: Ubuntu 10.10 ; 64 bit (a complete newbie with linux) I am going through buckner - tutorial for the group analysis with Qdec. I am at the step where I have to import the aseg and aparc data. I clicked on the "generate stats data tables" button - unfortunately an error showed up "again". ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- krishnadas-desktop:/usr/local/freesurfer> mkdir -p /usr/local/freesurfer/subjects/qdec/stats_tables/ ---------------------------------------------------------- asegstats2table --common-segs --meas volume --tablefile /usr/local/freesurfer/subjects/qdec/stats_tables/aseg.volume.stats.dat --statsfile=aseg.stats --subjects 140 049 141 084 021 093 080 091 040 017 138 106 108 092 124 129 103 130 039 123 095 067 004 133 097 073 149 045 136 144 032 131 145 111 102 074 114 008 128 099 /usr/local/freesurfer/bin/asegstats2table:5: DeprecationWarning: the sets module is deprecated from sets import Set Building the table..

Find point on pial surface closest in 3D space to known Talairach coordinates
by David Painter 16 Aug '11

16 Aug '11

Hi Freesurfers, I'm running a brain stimulation (TMS) study and wish to stimulate points on the pial surface that correspond most closely to known Talairach points (from fMRI studies). I'm wondering the best way to find these points using the beautiful Freesurfer cortical reconstructions. I've extracted pial surfaces for 44 brains using recon-all. I'd like to be able to create a label on the point of the pial surface that corresponds most closely to the Talairach point. I've tried creating a label on the inflated surface and dilating it until it becomes visible on the pial surface. But this method highlights adjacent parts of cortex rather than those closest to the Talairach point. I've also tried importing the pial surface into Matlab using mris_display, increasing the transparency of the pial surface, and superimposing the Talaraich points using a scatterplot... (Incidentally, I've been unable to figure out how to transform from Talaraich space to Freesurfer RAS space. I've tried multiplying TT' x tal, where TT = the Talairach transform matrix from talairach.xfm and tal = the Talairach point. But the points are way off where they should be. What am I doing wrong? In the meantime I've solved this problem by working out the Talairach point within Freesurfer)... Using Matlab to display the pial surface and superimposing the scatterplots is producing the best results so far, but it can be very difficult to recognise different parts on the transparent pial surface and this procedure is far from automated. Any ideas? Thanks so much for your time, David Painter, PhD Queensland Brain Institute University of Queensland Australia
