Hypothalamic module fixed
by Iglesias Gonzalez, Juan E. 19 Nov '20

19 Nov '20

Dear all, The problem in the volume estimates provided by the tool for segmentation of the hypothalamus and its nuclei has been fixed in the latest development version. Just to recap: if you downloaded the development version of FreeSurfer between September 18th and yesterday, the hypothalamic module produces *correct* segmentations BUT *incorrect* posteriors and therefore *incorrect* volume estimates in the CSV files. We apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused. Kind regards, Eugenio Juan Eugenio Iglesias Senior research fellow CMIC (UCL), MGH (HMS) and CSAIL (MIT) http://www.jeiglesias.com

mri_vol2surf

External Email - Use Caution Hello, I have a couple of questions: 1. I asked before how to obtain AAL labels on Freesurfer. I am following your instructions, but I don't know how to load the AAL onto my T1w template to ensure everything aligns 2. Secondly, I tried to run mri_vol2surf with the following command: mri_vol2surf --src /home/neuroimage/fsl/FreeSurfer/AAL.nii --regheader MNI --projfrac 0.5 --hemi lh --out /home/neuroimage/fsl/FreeSurfer/AAL-lh.img. However I obtained an error "ANALYZE FORMAT ERROR: ncols 161783 in volume exceeds 32768". How can I fix it?

External Email - Use Caution Hello, i have been trying to use the dcmunpack command and it always says command not found, i searched in the archives and some said it could be because the tcsh or csh wasnt installed however i have both installed (which tcsh and which csh return their location) and when i run dcmunpack it always returns "command not found", how can i solve this? Thank you!

question about PVC of PETSurfer
by 蒋袁芳 19 Nov '20

19 Nov '20

External Email - Use Caution Hello Freesurfer, We know that the freesurfer7 has given a new module to separate hippocampal subfields in MRI image, but we encoumter problems in registering the PET image with MRI image. We find that the resolution radio of PET image is not enough, it made the SUVr of hippocampal subfield we get is not accurate. So we want to use the PVC function of PETSurfer. Whether the PETsurfer output the result of PET image after PVC ? so that we can use it directly to registering with MRI image. If it doesn't output the result, can we save it in some ways? Thank you for your guidance.

Single Hemisphere Option Availability for Segmentation of hippocampal subfields and nuclei of the amygdala (cross-sectional and longitudinal)
by Park, James 18 Nov '20

18 Nov '20

External Email - Use Caution Dear Freesurfer team, Thank you so much for your support for this software thus far. As we were considering using the module for segmentation of hippocampal subfields and nuclei of the amygdala (cross-sectional and longitudinal), we came across an interesting scenario: Due to certain conditions for some subjects we seek to analyze, we would like to only run this module of freesurfer on one hemisphere. I understand that recon -all has this option (-hemi ?h) but found that there was no documentation regarding single hemisphere segmentation of the Hippocampus / Amygdala. Could you let us know if there are any hidden options that enable single hemisphere processing or workflows that allow for this? Thank you so much for your help as always.

recon-all for 0.85 isotropic images error
by Lee Subin Kristine 18 Nov '20

18 Nov '20

External Email - Use Caution Hello FreeSurfer Developers, I'm trying to run recon-all (v.6) on T1- and T2-weighted images that have 0.85mm^3 isotropic voxels I have entered the command as below, with the T2, T2pial, cm, cw256 flags. recon-all -i $T1_DIR/"oT1_"$subj.nii -T2 $T2_DIR/"oT2_"$subj.nii -T2pial -cm -cw256 -subject $subj"_test" -all However, I keep getting the error as follows. ERROR! FOV=272.000 > 256 Include the flag -cw256 with recon-all! Inspect orig.mgz to ensure the head is fully visible. I'm guessing that conforming to the small voxel size results in a FOV that is out of limit? However, when I check the orig.mgz file it looks fine. (It has an image dimension of 320 x 320 x 320). Even when I include the flag -cw256 as the error message says, I still get the same error message. (Also, I cannot find any documentation about the -cw256flag on the help page). I have pasted the full log below. Thank you for your help.

Striatum Mask for Choi et al 2012
by RENXI LI 18 Nov '20

18 Nov '20

External Email - Use Caution Hi Freesurfer Experts: In $FREESURFER_HOME/average/Choi_JNeurophysiol12_MNI152 directory, there are a striatum parcellation masks based on functional connectivities to the cortical networks by Yeo et al 2011. I would like to register this striatum parcellation mask to each subject’s striatum mask. But to create the striatum mask in the native subject space using mri_binarize, which segmentation file do you recommend to use and which segmentations should I be including in the mask to cover all regions in Choi’s striatum mask? Best, Renxi

distance between two vertices in Freeview
by Nasiriavanaki, Zahra 17 Nov '20

17 Nov '20

Dear Freesurfer experts Hi I was trying to measure the dimensions of a surface ROI in a flatten map on Freeview. I used the 3D scale bar to measure the longest diameter of the ROI. My question is how the scale bar is calculating the distance between the two points? Is it the euclidean distance between the two vertices? I calculated the euclidean distance in matlab between the two vertices (using their x and y coordinates) , and the number I get, is much higher than what I see in freeview. I wonder why this discrepancy is happening? I appreciate if you could please let me know the answer to my question. Thanks MOna Zahra (Mona) Nasiriavanaki, M.D. Postdoctoral Research Fellow Department of Psychiatry Massachusetts General Hospital 149 13th Street, 149-2615 Charlestown, MA, USA, 02129
