Freeview question
by Nasiriavanaki, Zahra,M.D. 22 Jul '21

22 Jul '21

Hello experts, I am trying to load two types of labels on left hemisphere of a single subject. In tksurfer, both labels load without an issue, but in Freeview, one type of labels (neg.label) don’t show up. There is no error in the terminal, so I’m not sure what’s going on. I copied the labels and subject’s lh.inflated in the scratch directory below: /autofs/cluster/scratch/thursday/mona I need to use Freeview, since I’ve written a code to take screen shots. Deeply appreciate it if you could please help me on this. Thanks, Mona Zahra (Mona) Nasiriavanaki, M.D. Postdoctoral Research Fellow Department of Psychiatry | MGH/HMS 149 13th Street, 149-2615 Boston, MA, USA, 02129

How to quickly check whether the segmentation of thalamic nuclei or the amygdala is correct
by 梁晓芳 22 Jul '21

22 Jul '21

External Email - Use Caution Hi, I have tried to segment the thalamic nuclei and amygdala, using segmentThalamicNuclei.sh and segmentHA_T1.sh. But is there any method to quickly check whether the segmentation is accurate? Because I have so many scans that using freeview to check the results one by one may cost me a lot of time. Meanwhile those volumes extracted from the segmentation are really important in my study. So I think I do need to ensure the accurate segmentation. Thank you very much! Best wishes, Xiaofang

Re: [Freesurfer] FreeView issue!

External Email - Use Caution Your crash report listed an Intel Mac running BigSur 11.4.  The screenshot below shows running the freesurfer 7.2.0 release installed on an Intel Mac running BigSur 11.4 (after installing the pkg file from https://secure-web.cisco.com/1w0xxEMjJUzMzaNI7qL3KE_kI0NAwbdBtOto…)   In the terminal window you will see FS_LICENSE was manually set in the environment to point to the license.txt file.  But the environment variable QT_MAC_WANTS_LAYER is not in the environment at all.  After opening an empty freeview window, the volume /Applications/freesurfer/7.2.0/subjects/bert/mri/brain.mgz was loaded.  Please give that a try on your machine. - R.

Control points and white matter segmentation
by Rosalia Dacosta Aguayo 21 Jul '21

External Email - Use Caution Dear Freesurfer team, Sorry for this basic question. I wonder if once I have edited the white matter (topological defects), I can run control points without deleting what I have done to white matter segmentation. Kind regards, Rosie

delineating gyral boundaries in native space
by Robin Cash 21 Jul '21

21 Jul '21

External Email - Use Caution Hi, Is there a tool within freesurfer that can be used to delineate gyral boundaries (delineate sulci) from an individual's T1 scan in native space? To be clear, the purpose wouldn't be to broadly identify or parcellate different gyri, but to delineate the boundary between gyri and sulci. Many thanks, Robin Dr. Robin Cash (PhD) | ARC Senior Research Fellow Department of Biomedical Engineering, UNIVERSITY OF MELBOURNE Melbourne Neuropsychiatry Centre, Level 3, Alan Gilbert Building, 161 Barry St, Carlton VIC 3053 Australia Twitter<https://secure-web.cisco.com/1acjuoQqXB1dkDPlCJpMqGSMi53R45KVmVJko7Ik-Kfmqd…> | Google Scholar<https://secure-web.cisco.com/1Z4EkX_ch_GUS5nKc90QaGpU6mdLSm8Xs315eYJQOYKtpd…>

sbTIV versus eTIV
by AJ 20 Jul '21

20 Jul '21

External Email - Use Caution Hi, I am looking at interscanner differences between Philip and GE. I get significantly less variation between the scanners when looking at sbTIV (coefficient of variation < 1.5 %) than eTIV (12%) within subjects. Any thought as to why? Normalizing ROIs with sbTIV improves these differences even more. Thanks for your help. AJ

DOSS Question
by WON JONG CHWA 20 Jul '21

20 Jul '21

External Email - Use Caution Dear FreeSurfer Experts, I have been having trouble with performing DOSS analyses with mri_glmfit. One of the groups in my sample is too small to be performed with DODS, but when I try to call the DOSS option in mri_glmfit, it returns the same error, saying that DODS is not possible with this sample. I even tried defining the design matrix manually using --X, but it returns the same error. mri_glmfit --glmdir lh.rate.CI.paired-diff.thickness.DOSS --y mgh/rates/lh.thickness-rate.stack.fwhm10.mgh --fsgd FSGD/CI_baselines/paired-diff-demean-CI.fsgd doss --surf fsaverage lh --C Contrasts/BMICorrelationCI_DOSS.mtx gdfRead(): reading FSGD/CI_baselines/paired-diff-demean-CI.fsgd INFO: DeMeanFlag keyword not found, DeMeaning will NOT be done.

With 2 variables and using DODS, you need at least 3 members If anyone has any ideas on how to go about this, that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. William
