External Email - Use Caution Greetings, A Dean of Research is seeking input for a new research dedicated neuroimaging suite and asked me about about potential items. While I’m familiar with the setups I’ve used, I’m wondering what others would recommend if they could start from the ground up? Cheers, Jason Sent from my phone; please pardon any communication catastrophes.

mri_label2vol error
by Shao-Min (Sean) Hung 19 Jan '23

19 Jan '23

External Email - Use Caution Dear Doug, I have been having the following issue and haven't figured out a way to get around it. I have also searched the archive and did not find anything relevant enough to be helpful. The context is, I am drawing functional ROIs on volumetric data using FreeView. After which, I use mri_label2vol to convert the label into a volume for further analysis. I keep getting the following error: ERROR: label is not in tkreg coords so you need to specify atemplate with --tkr-template MRI. The MRI should be the volumethat the label was created on I used different templates to re-create the label but did not solve the issue. Using a different template for mri_label2vol did not seem to help either. I went back to check the labels, which seemed to be correctly drawn. Could you give me some directions to solve this issue? Thank you for your help! Regards, Sean

Re: [Freesurfer] dicom reading errors

External Email - Use Caution The output shows the command running on Ubuntu 18 linux and getting an error from the shell for a bad file descriptor (fd),Linux holowach 5.3.0-53-generic #47~18.04.1-ubuntu SMP Thu May 7 13:10:50 UTC 2020 x86_64 x85_64 x86_64 GNU/Linuxsh: 1: Syntax error: Bad fd numberThat could be an issue with the shell on Ubuntu.   On Ubuntu the default “sh” in PATH, $ which sh/bin/sh - is usually a soft link to the minimal “dash” shell and not a more complete shell like the “bash” shell. $ ls -l /bin/shlrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jan 3  2020 /bin/sh -> dash* I would try using the bash shell, e.g., type “bash” in your terminal window and then run the command that produced the error, $ bashyourhostname[0]:~$… run your command ... If that fixes the issue, you might consider changing the /bin/sh link to point to bash instead of dash.  But you will need sudo/root privileges to do that, e.g., $ cd /bin$ sudo rm sh$ sudo ln -s bash sh - R.

External Email - Use Caution Trying to run FS7.2. on a dataset and am getting dicom errors as shown below. Looks like some issues related to dicom compression and bad fd number. Any suggestions from the FS experts please?

External Email - Use Caution Hey, I'm trying to run "trac-all -prep -c $TUTORIAL_DATA/diffusion_tutorial/dmrirc.tutorial" but keep getting this error : /shared/centos7/freesurfer/7.3.2/bin/free/sources.csh: No such file or directory. My colleague ran this step on the same data and it worked for her but not for me. We load the same freesurfer version and use the exact same commands.

Two basic questions: brainmask file versions and qcache
by Harriott, Emily M 18 Jan '23

18 Jan '23

External Email - Use Caution Dear FreeSurfer experts, I hope this email finds you all well. I have two relatively basic questions that I am hoping to get some help with. My basic planned processing pipeline is: Run initial recon-all with gcut and ws flags Edit white matter/pial voxels and add control points (as needed) Run second recon-all with autorecon2 and autorecon3 flags Run LGI I have two questions about this: When I run the initial recon-all, I end up with three versions of the brainmask within the /mri/ folder: brainmask.auto.mgz, brainmask.gcuts.mgz, brainmask.mgz. Which brainmask version do I edit, so that my edits are incorporated into the second recon-all run and thus the second attempt at wm/gm segmentation is better? When and with what command(s) do I use the qcache flag? I apologize that these are quite basic, but sincerely appreciate any input anyone might be able to provide. Thank you so very much in advance! All the best, Emily Harriott Doctoral student at Vanderbilt University

External Email - Use Caution Dear Rahul, I just used the wiki of the Freesurfer functions, the information is very complete. If you want to use Freesurfer, you can start by doing the cortical reconstruction process for each subject ( https://secure-web.cisco.com/1Lj_XzmtE_iAYreTtmjwq2Q0VTCaZWdcX4QFapQPQO_Y7j…) and then prepare the maps to do the analysis that interests you. In the case of PET analysis, you can follow the steps explained on the PetSurfer wiki ( https://secure-web.cisco.com/1SUsUq0XwDtpjwx2dSpE1KOdwDPRl2MG5fyhegdBeDHaK3…) If you have any particular questions about feature options, you can search this list if other users have asked before. In case the question is not resolved, you can ask it here so that the experts can answer you. I hope it helps. Cheers, Marina.

External Email - Use Caution Hi all, I am willing to use mri_synthseg and mri_easyreg which are available in the 7-dev version on a high-performance cluster. Is there a way to do it without installing the 7-dev version on it? I didn't have enough RAM space to do them on my local machine. Best, Amir
