question on GLM
by Barletta, Valeria 10 Sep '19

10 Sep '19

Good afternoon! I have a question on the Freesurfer GLM. The command: mri_glmfit-sim --glmdir ${glm_dir}/${hemi}_contrast-${contrast}_${surfname_cme} --cache 1.3 neg is giving me blue clusters (see attached picture). Do blue clusters mean that my variable y is LOWER in the FIRST or the SECOND group listed in the FSGD file? Thanks, Valeria

eTIV and brainmask mismatch on Philips data
by Agnieszka Sabisz 10 Sep '19

10 Sep '19

External Email - Use Caution Hi all! We are running FS v.6.0. on a supercomputer operating on Linux. We have two sets of data - one from 1.5T Aera Siemens, second from 3.0T Achieva TX Philips. The T1 images on both scanners have comparable CNR, with an isotropic resolution of 1mm3 each. The recon-all finished with no errors, but in approximately half of the Philips data there is a significant (up to 40%) difference between the brain mask volume and eTIV (no such problem on Siemens). We inspected the Talairach registration (as is pointed that eTIV is calculated upon it) in the mismatched data with: tkregister2 --mgz --s <subject> --fstal --surf orig and in the corrupted data the brain mask and the WM-GM borders align in terms of placement but are of a wrong scale (proportionate to the "brainmask-to-eTIV" difference). What may be the reason and how to cope with that? We cannot normalize the volume data to eTIV (as it is not proper), what value should we use instead? Attached you will find example tkregister2 output screenshots. Best regards, Agnieszka Sabisz

Correcting defect problem after checking skull stripped and editing wm.mgz
by Jiun Wei Chen 10 Sep '19

10 Sep '19

External Email - Use Caution Dear freesurfer experts, When executing recon-all in two subjects with brain lesions, the recon-all process stopped at CORRECTING DEFECT 13 (vertices=49319, convex hull=12973, v0=65403) and CORRECTING DEFECT 6 (vertices=23529, convex hull=6740, v0=16029), respectively. After reading the relevant problem from freesufer mailing list, I had checked the skull and cerebellum not attached to the surface, two hemispheres are separated using freeview. In addition, I also load the brain.mgz, wm.mgz, ?h.orig.nofix and ?h.inflated.nofix and separately overlap the ?h.defect_label onto ?h.orig.nofix , ?h.inflated.nofix to edit wm.mgz to solve this problem. However, after editing wm.mgz in two subjects, the recon-all process still stopped at CORRECTING DEFECT 0 (vertices=32853, convex hull=7926) and CORRECTING DEFECT 6 (vertices=16533, convex hull= 4510) , respectively. Although I try to erase the non-white matter and label voxels as white matter as much as possible, there are too many voxels I think I need to label, which may cause the failure. I can't figure out how to continue to solve this problem. I use freesurfer version 6.0.0. I really appreciate your help. Thanks a lot. Best regards, Jiun-Wei

Extracting contrast data from mri_glmfit to graph
by cody samth 09 Sep '19

09 Sep '19

External Email - Use Caution Hello, I have a question regarding how to graph results that came from a vertex wise analysis using the command mri_glmfit and mri_glmfit-sim. I was interested in investigating an interaction effect between groups and my variable of interest (continuous) while co-varying for three nuisance variables. After running mri_glmfit and mri_glmfit-sim to correct for multiple comparisons. I visualized the results and found significant clusters. I'm interested in graphing these results. Based on archived questions to this mailing list the individual values for each cluster can be found within the ocn.dat file and the cluster information can be found in the summary file. My analysis looked at volume, thickness and surface area. Since mean volume and area is difficult to interpret I want to convert the values to a total measure. It has been suggested in the past this can be done by multiplying each individuals values within the ocn.dat file by the number of vertices the cluster has. However, from my understanding this could be done by altering the mri_segstats command (that mri_glmfit-sim automatically runs) to include the --accumulate option. When I do these methods to convert mean area and volume to total area and volume the results are different. My first question is 1) Shouldn't these values be identical? The values from multiplying mean volume by number of vertices are roughly around 3500. Whereas using the --accumulate in mri_segstats are around 2500. What could be causing this discrepancy? 2) If my cluster has a size of 1500 mm^2 (in a model for area) does it make sense that every individual's values after extraction and conversion to total area are larger than the cluster size? 3) ocn.dat files are the input values meaning they're raw and would need to be corrected in a statistically (in a similar way that I modeled it in freesurfer) before graphing right?

09 Sep '19

External Email - Use Caution I noticed that you guys released a fix to improve the -hires option. I have been processing some of our data using the hires flag. if i use this fix do i need to run recon-all from the beginning or can I run over the old folders?
