func2roi-sess w/o analysis
by Alessandro D. Gagliardi 05 Jun '09

05 Jun '09

I'd like to extract a BOLD series for a given anatomical region. It seems like this should be possible with func2roi-sess (with the -anatlabel option) but it appears to need an analysis for some reason. I'm using continuous data, no event-related or block design paradigm, so I don't have an FS-FAST analysis. I just want the time series for a given ROI, so I don't see why I should need an analysis, but I can't figure out how to tell func2roi-sess not to use one. Perhaps I'm misunderstanding func2roi-sess or maybe there's a better function for me to use for this. What is the best way to extract the time series from a given ROI (e.g. rh.medialorbitofrontal) using FreeSurfer? Thanks,-- Alessandro D.

I think you are running a 64 bit version of FreeSurfer in a 32bit linux Kernel.

Re: 'Max' in sig.cluster.summary
by Judith Segall 04 Jun '09

04 Jun '09

Hi all. After looking over our monte-carlo results, I a simple question about the sig.cluster.summary output. Is the " Max" in column 2 below a measurement of thickness? If it is thickness, is the correct interpretation the following: the most significant cluster is in the laterorbitofrontal region. The max vertex in that cluster has an average thickness of 3.312 mm and the negative directionality indicates that it is thinner in that region than in the fsaverage (from freesufer) used in the group analysis/simulations? If it does not refer to thickness, is it a statistic, etc? # Minimum Threshold 2 # Maximum Threshold infinity # Threshold Sign abs # AdjustThreshWhenOneTail 1 # Area Threshold 0 mm^2 # CSD thresh 2.000000 # CSD nreps 10000 # CSD simtype mc-z # CSD contrast lh-Avg-thickness-CAQ-CCI # CSD confint 90.000000 # Overall max 2.05497 at vertex 92846 # Overall min -3.3122 at vertex 60632 # NClusters 11 # Total Cortical Surface Area 65416.6 (mm^2) # FixMNI = 1 # # ClusterNo Max VtxMax Size(mm^2) TalX TalY TalZ CWP CWPLow CWPHi NVtxs Annot 1 -3.312 60632 278.00 -15.2 47.7 -15.4 0.08250 0.07900 0.08600 341 lateralorbitofrontal 2 -3.231 51202 118.54 -39.5 24.9 16.9 0.53620 0.52980 0.54260 212 rostralmiddlefrontal 3 -3.229 67407 163.06 -19.2 12.0 46.9 0.36360 0.35740 0.36980 337 superiorfrontal 4 -2.463 117667 37.51 -47.8 -50.8 8.0 0.63240 0.62620 0.63860 79 bankssts 5 -2.379 151243 12.92 -30.9 -42.8 36.6 0.63240 0.62620 0.63860 38 superiorparietal I am trying to finish writing up my results and just need answer to this question to continue.

scan orientation matter?
by David Qixiang Chen 04 Jun '09

04 Jun '09

Hi all,Just wondering if the scan orientation for input DICOMs matter. I know that Analyze format does not preserve left/right orientation information, but would a saggital DICOM scan have the same problem? We have a lot of axial scans, would incorporating freesurfer subjects with saggital scans in our comparisons cause any problems? Assuming that the slice thickness is 1mm with 0 spacing at 3T, with 256x256 res. We are using GE Signa HDx scanners. Thanks - David Qixiang Chen

question about wmparc stats files
by Dana W. Moore 04 Jun '09

04 Jun '09

In my wmparc.stats file I have noticed that for many structures I am just getting a value of 0. I do get output for ctx and wm values corresponding to the aparc structures and for subcortical structures corresponding to the aseg.stats file. However, towards the end of the document, there is a whole list of structures with 0 for volumes (e.g. internal capsule, thalamic regions). Why am I not getting any output for these regions? I have attached a wmparc.stats file for reference. Thanks, Dana Dana W.

"smooth sulc on only part of the surface" one more time
by Zhangyuanchao 04 Jun '09

04 Jun '09

Hi, experts, I am interested in only the positive sulc and would like to make group analysis of the postive sulc values. Hence I would like to mask off the negative values (as the lh.sulc file has both positive and negative value). Before making group analysis, I have to resample and smooth the sulc value. How do I smooth the positive sulc in a way that the negative sulc values will not have an effect on the smoothing process? Example if I smooth the positive sulc directly with the negative values, it will have some effect on the positive values since gyri and sulci are alternating. you suggest me using mri_binarize and mri_fwhm to make a mask and smooth it with a mask. As suggested, I have done so. However, there is a problem I can not tackle. Using mri_binarize --i lh.sulc --min 0 --o lh.such.mask.mgh When I read the lh.such.mask.mgh into matlab so that I can see the data inside. To my surprise, I saw a vector which contains nearly all 0's except some very small numbers like 1.401298464324817e-45, not binary file which contains only 0's and 1's. I further tried: mri_binarize --i lh.sulc --min 0 --o lh.such.mask.mgh --binval 1 It has the same problem as above. After launching: mris_fwhm --i sulc --subject Ad001 --surf white --mask lh.such.mask.mgh --hemi lh --fwhm 20 --o lh.sulc.mgh I read lh.sulc.mgh into matlab, it contains all 0's. I read the mgh file using Keith worsley's SurfStatReadData function. I do not know where it is wrong. Thank doug for your helpful suggestions! Thank you very much! yuanchao ___________________________________________________________ 好玩贺卡等你发，邮箱贺卡全新上线！ http://card.mail.cn.yahoo.com/
