I'm sorry but I have another question for you. Sometimes the cutting planes are not correct and it doesn't delete the cerebellum. Whay can I do? Manual editing is my only chance? Thanks a lot Massimiliano Calabrese Neuroimaging Group Neuroimmunology Branch NINDS, NIH

Re: [Freesurfer] FsFast file conversion/preprocessing
by Margaret Duff 08 Nov '04

Hi, so, instead of converting the files, i unpacked them into bshort and it gave me, i think, the right amount of files. then i used the command preproc-sess --sf sessid --df sesspar --fwhm 6. it ran for a while, gave me the sections converting input to afni, motion correcting, and matlab file. after it opens matlab it has the errors saying the mc-sess failed. i am running this from /space/troy. it does create the file fmc.mcdat and it looks like its complete. it just stops after that and doesn't make the actual motion corrected files. thanks for your help. margaret SPM stores each *frame* in a separate file, but all slices for a given frame in the same file. Thus, the number of files will equal the number of frames. bshort/bfloat stores each *slice* in a separate file, but all frames for a given slice in the same file. Thus the number of files will equal the number of slices. Does this resolve the difference? It sounds like your bshorts are not being converted to AFNI properly. Can you send me your preproc-sess command-line and the location you are running it from? doug Margaret Duff wrote: > > Hi, I have 12 runs of functional data I am trying to convert to FSFast > formats and then preprocess.

tksurf doesn't recognise mouse position
by Glenn Lawyer 03 Nov '04

03 Nov '04

Hi, I'm having a problem choosing points with tksurfer. Essentially, it does not register the mouse position. More specifically, when I start the program [badger@dhcp-1017-4 ~/freesurfer]$ tksurfer HU0018 lh inflated The tool/command window shows the cursor vertex index as none and the mouse vertex index as none. When I move the mouse over the display window (no clicking yet!), the mouse vertex index shows 83914. This number does not change, regardless of the position of the mouse. It is not a latency issue, as even after a full minute, nothing has registered. Note that the cursor vertex still shows "none". Now I left-click with the mouse. The cursor index shows 83914, and a blue star appears on the image at that location REGARDLESS of mouse position when I click. I move the mouse, and click with the mouse, but the mouse and cursor vertexes do not change. If I manually edit the cursor vertex index, I can move the blue star. Oddly, if I right-click on the image, it re-draws. So at some level mouse events are getting through. Also, tkmedit seems to work, at least the mouse and cursor values update as I scroll around the image. setup: RH9, tk/tcl 8.3, modern machine (2.6 gh pentium 4, 1.5 gigs ram, intel video-on-motherboard) /usr/lib/libtk8.3.so /usr/lib/libtcl8.3.so /usr/lib/libtcl.so /usr/lib/libtclstub8.3.a Ideas, anyone? +glenn -- I want to go farther, farther!

Re: [Freesurfer] tkregister2
by George Papadimitriou 01 Nov '04

01 Nov '04

tkregister2 was used to overlay (i.e. co-register) volume s to volume f. This actually succeeded; you can see results with: % tkregister2 --targ f_000.bfloat --mov s_000.bfloat --reg \ register1.dat Now, I want to actually create an actual new volume (e.g. s_to_f) that is in register with f, using the information contained in register1.dat. For this purpose I used mri_vol2vol, but ended up initially with a "zero volume" and then with a stretched out of version of s that is not in register with f. Does this make sense? Please, let me know if you need me to provide additional info. Thanks a lot! George P.

Re: mri_vol2surf error
by Joongnam Yang 01 Nov '04

01 Nov '04

Thanks Doug, I am having trouble doing functional overlay with structural, either with GUI or command-line. On GUI, I open "structural" and "functional" directories in "csurf", but the overlay option under "File" doesn't show the overlay. I chose *.w file for the overlay data. Question1: Should "functional" directory in "csurf" be set to a *.feat directory which is the output of FEAT of FSL? Question 2: When the functional overlay is complete, how does it look? Of course, it depends on the functional data, but in general. I guess that the structural brain overlaied with functional data in COLOR? right? Take care Nam.

Hi Doug, I tried running mri_vol2vol again (after you made the changes); the good news is that as you said the output is not zero, but at the same time the output volume is definitely not correct (the brain appears stretched, and not in register with the template). From what I can gather, you also tried this in: /space/friday/users/dtuch/tkregister2/s_to_f-dng I also tried a suggestion that Bruce had made earlier (i.e. specifying the output to be a bfloat volume, instead of COR), but it yielded the same result (output appears stretched and not in register). I would really appreciate your help resolving this issue. Thanks, George P. On Mon, 1 Nov 2004, Doug Greve wrote: > > OK, mri_vol2vol should give non-zero output now.

FsFast file conversion/preprocessing
by Margaret Duff 01 Nov '04

01 Nov '04

Hi, I have 12 runs of functional data I am trying to convert to FSFast formats and then preprocess. I have been using mri_convert to make my .img files into bshorts. However mri_convert makes only 30 files when my folders originally contained 37 or 73 files. Is this what it is supposed to do? I am also then trying to run preproc-sess on these files but i keep getting an error during the motion correction of the first run. it says can't register a 1 brick dataset to itself, and ERROR: 3dvolreg existed with status 1. I am using the command "preproc-sess -sf sessid -df sesspar -fwhm 6" for preprocessing and "mri_convert 028/f001.img 028/f_001.bshort" for file conversion. Does anyone know why my steps aren't working or knows of a better way to do these steps? Thank you so much, Margaret Duff
