File cnr.mgh
by Jürgen Hänggi 08 Jan '09

08 Jan '09

Dear FS experts I am not sure whether the file cnr.mgh represents the contrast-to-noise ration (CNR) on one hand and how to interpret it. When I loaded the cnr.mgh in tkmedit, there is actually no image visible and only one value is shown e.g., 0.355 or -0.965. What do these values mean? In my opinion, these values are to small for a classical CNR, isn't it? Can I use the cnr.mgh file to control the CNR (and also the SNR) of the FS surfaces derived from images acquired on two different scanners? Is there another way in FS to check whether the SNR and CNR is comparable between surfaces derived from images acquired on different scanners?

Hello, I´d like to know if there is some way to create a ROI-label of a subcortical structure. If there is a way, please tell me how to do. Thanks, Kelly Veja quais são os assuntos do momento no Yahoo! +Buscados http://br.maisbuscados.yahoo.com

mri_vol2surf - MNI subject
by Yigal Agam 08 Jan '09

08 Jan '09

Hi, If I have volume data in MNI subject space (produced using --tal option in mri_vol2vol), how do I project it onto the surface in the same subject space? There does not seem to be an equivalent tal option in mri_vol2surf. Thanks, Yigal

Trouble Creating label
by Zeidan, Mohamed A. 07 Jan '09

07 Jan '09

Hello all, I'm creating a label on a volume in tkmedit and as I do it, tkmedit will unexpectedly close and give me the following error message in the terminal window: =================================== ERROR: A segfault has occurred. This is not your fault, : but is most likely an unrecoverable error and has : made the program unstable. : : Please send the contents of the file .xdebug_tkmedit : that should be in this directory to analysis-bugs(a)nmr.mgh.harvard.edu : : Now exiting... Any thoughts? Thanks, Moe

Parameter comparison in native vs. template space
by Christine Ecker 06 Jan '09

06 Jan '09

I would like to export cortical thickness measures and compare the data across subjects in a vertex-by-vertex fashion. Please could you confirm that similar functions such as mri_glmfit are based on the parameters in template space e.g. lh.thickness.fsaverage.mgh and not on the parameters in native space e.g. lh.thickness. So for a group comparison I would have to export the files in template space (e.g. lh.thickness.fsaverage.mgh) and could then map the output back onto the template? Also, why are the parameters not the same in native and template space? Finally, in order to compare groups on the basis of the parcellated regions (e.g. lh.aparc.stats). Are parameters such as area, volume, curvature etc comparable across groups or would they still have to be corrected for whole-brain volume? I would be very grateful if you could help me further. Thank you!

Loading Projects Files
by Bramen, Jennifer E. 06 Jan '09

06 Jan '09

Dear Freesurfer Community I have been unable to load any of my saved Project files , and I cannot find any explanation in the tutorial or in the list arcives. I have been saving the project files inside of the qdec/<Design Name> directory as <?h_description>.qdec. However, when I try to load them, I get an error. I am using Qdec 1.1. Any ideas about what is wrong? Thank you.

How to overlap FSL statistical map onto surface in Matlab?
by Yunjie Tong 06 Jan '09

06 Jan '09

Hi I was able to view the statistical maps (from FSL) on the subject's surface following the tutorial (FsTutotial/FSLFeatFreeSurfer). I would like to see the same image in Matlab. I could show the subject's surface as well as the the cortical parcellation in Matlab by modifying the functions freesurfer_read_surf.m and read_annotation.m. I do not know how to overlap the statistical map onto the surface then. Is there any Matlab function I can use? Thanks. Best, Yunjie

Poor labeling
by Jason S. Minamora 06 Jan '09

06 Jan '09

Hello, I'm using a home-grown GCA constructed from five acallosal subjects to try to improve the automatic labeling and segmentation of volumes from this population. However, the labeling was quite bad when performed on a representative subject, and the ventricles were only partially filled and crossed the IHF in areas: Left_Lateral_Ventricle (4): linear fit = 1.00x + 0.0 (713 voxels, overlap=0.480) Left_Lateral_Ventricle (4): linear fit = 1.00x + 0.0 (713 voxels, peak = 38), gca=37.8 Right_Lateral_Ventricle (43): linear fit = 1.00x + 0.0 (370 voxels, overlap=0.292) Right_Lateral_Ventricle (43): linear fit = 1.00x + 0.0 (370 voxels, peak=38) I also noticed that the 152-subject MNI atlas that came with FS had ventricles that were much "darker" (when converted to NIFTI and displayed in fslview) than my own atlas: the mean ventricle intensities were about 15 and 30, respectively. We suffer from a lack of data, too. Is it possible to improve the GCA and labeling with such limited data? Jason
