RES: [Freesurfer] Individual thickness data extraction from plot
by Pedro Paulo de Magalhaes Oliveira Junior 27 Apr '09

27 Apr '09

Check the User contribution section of the FreeSurfer wiki. I've put there a small script to do this. Sent from my Nokia phone @E71 -----Msg original----- De: Marina.Lopez(a)crccorp.es Enviada: 22/04/2009 05:43:39 Assunto: [Freesurfer] Individual thickness data extraction from plot Hello all, I have the following plot of thickness value in a specific vertex for all my subjects: My single question is: how can I take the data list of y-values (vertex thickness for all subjects) in this plot in an automatic manner (and have them in a table)? I have to extract thickness values of a lot of vertices and a quick manner will help me a lot.

Gradient directions of DTI data.
by Zhen Zonglei 26 Apr '09

26 Apr '09

Hi FreeSurfer and FSL Guru: We have analyzed our Siemens Trio 3T dti data with dt_recon, and hope to do TBSS and FDT analysis with FSL in the next step. However, we are not very sure that we can directly use the gradient_mgh_dtiNN.gdt in FSL. To my understanding, FSL’s default orientation is different from Freesurfer’s. Can TBSS and FDT interpret the gradient correctly? Should we adjust the gradient? Please give us some suggestions. Thanks -- Zonglei Zhen, PhD Assistant Professor of Cognitive Neuroscience BNU Imaging Center for Brain Research, State Key Laboratory of Cognitive Neuroscience and Learning, P.R. China

4.3.0 macosx leopard mri_normalize segfaults
by Sebastian Moeller 24 Apr '09

24 Apr '09

Dear fellow surfers, in the process of hoisting my monkey scripts for processing of anatomical data from stable3 (3.0.5, boy some programms really expect completely different arguments now, :)) to the cutting edge 4.3.0 I am encountering some problems. On an intel mac (leopard 10.5.6) mri_normalize leads to segmentation faults, while the centos4_x86_64 version of 4.3.0 mri_normalize, happily performs the normalization using the same commandline. Here is bugr's output: --------------------------------------------------------------------- FREESURFER_HOME: /opt/freesurfer/ Build stamp: freesurfer-Darwin-leopard-i686-stable-pub-v4.3.0 Kernel info: Darwin 9.6.2 i386 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please include the following additional information in your report: 1) subject name n/a, non human primate data; selfmade scripts, mri_info of nu.mgz: hms-beagle:myscripts_anat moeller$ mri_info ../mri/nu.mgz Volume information for ../mri/nu.mgz type: MGH dimensions: 256 x 256 x 256 voxel sizes: 1.0000, 1.0000, 1.0000 type: UCHAR (0) fov: 256.000 dof: 0 xstart: -128.0, xend: 128.0 ystart: -128.0, yend: 128.0 zstart: -128.0, zend: 128.0 TR: 1450.00 msec, TE: 3.05 msec, TI: 800.00 msec, flip angle: 10.00 degrees nframes: 1 ras xform present xform info: x_r = -1.0000, y_r = 0.0000, z_r = 0.0000, c_r = 13.3323 : x_a = 0.0000, y_a = 0.0000, z_a = 1.0000, c_a = 2.5991 : x_s = 0.0000, y_s = -1.0000, z_s = 0.0000, c_s = 40.7345 talairach xfm : Orientation : LIA Primary Slice Direction: coronal voxel to ras transform: -1.0000 0.0000 0.0000 141.3323 0.0000 0.0000 1.0000 -125.4009 0.0000 -1.0000 0.0000 168.7345 0.0000 0.0000 0.0000 1.0000 voxel-to-ras determinant -1 ras to voxel transform: -1.0000 0.0000 0.0000 141.3323 -0.0000 -0.0000 -1.0000 168.7345 -0.0000 1.0000 -0.0000 125.4009 0.0000 0.0000 0.0000 1.0000 So to my knowledge nu.mgz looks okay, it displays okay in tkmedit 2) the entire command-line executed mri_normalize -n 1 -no1d -gentle ../mri/nu.mgz ../mri/T1.mgz adding -nosnr or removing -gentle does not solve the problem, it always segfaults with the following output 3) the error message generated performing 3d normalization 1 times disabling 1d normalization... performing kinder gentler normalization... reading from ../mri/nu.mgz... normalizing image... computing initial normalization using SNR...

Registration file conversion
by John Kuster 24 Apr '09

24 Apr '09

Dear Freesurfers, I was wondering if anyone can tell me if there is a command to convert an existing register.dat file from to .mat format for FSL, and vice versa. Thank you! Jake

Registration matrices
by John Kuster 24 Apr '09

24 Apr '09

Hello! I was just wondering if anyone can tell me about any issues in converting registration matrices from register.dat to register.mat for FSL. Does conversion change the orientation of the matrix for the two images? Do the matrices contain orientation data, or just translational data? Thanks!! Jake

error running 'fast'
by Dominique Jennings 24 Apr '09

24 Apr '09

Hi, I have been getting a new error when using 'fast', FMRIB's automated segmentation tool. I can run 'fast -t2' on my T2-weighted images without errors (the result is expected segmentation of CSF, WM and GM). However, isolating the number of tissue classes using the command 'fast -c 2' inevitably results in an error, even when I run this command on data I have successfully segmented in the past. Error reads: [aura[129]:] (nmr-std-env) fast -c 2 temp FAST - FMRIB's Automated Segmentation Tool Version 3.53 Image: /tmp/fsl_3bA3BQ_temp AVWReader: Warning, /tmp/fsl_3bA3BQ_temp -- Can not read header file! Can not open file /tmp/fsl_3bA3BQ_temp.hdr! If anyone is familiar with 'fast', any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance. Nicki

Tal QA log outputs
by carl＠nmr.mgh.harvard.edu 24 Apr '09

24 Apr '09

Nick, Could you please help me reconcile your reply to Zhen below with Avis note below about the tal_QC_AZS script? Below we have pasted a sample of our recon all log. Is the talAviQA in the default log the same as the eta term that Avi describes as output of the tal_QC_AZS script below in his note to Zhen? What does the z refer to in the recon all log? It appears that the default tal check does not generate the atlas_transform_error term, correct? ( I also dont see any term less than 15). Does one need to run Avis tal_QC_AZS script to generate the atlas_transform_error term ? While it looks like tal check not not automatically output the value of the atlas_transform_error term, Is the z score that DOES appear (automatically) in the log file the same z score that Avi mentions below, that compares the atlas_transform_error term to the training set? Thanks!

Overinclusive white matter surface
by Kathryn Devaney 24 Apr '09

24 Apr '09

Hello freesurfers, I am running a reconstruction of a macaque in stabe4, and I am having a problem with the smooth white matter surface not following the wm boundary in the wm.mgz volume (please see attached for examples in the wm and T1 volumes). The non-wm area included in the surface was never part of the wm volume, but I edited the other defects in wm.mgz and re-ran fill, tessellate, smooth1, inflate1, qsphere, fix, finalsurfs, smooth2, amd inflate2. Unsurprisingly, this problem persisted. Is there anything that I can do to fix this? Thanks! Katie
