Confirmation regarding running GLM on command line stream
by Avi Gharehgazlou 21 Jun '19

21 Jun '19

External Email - Use Caution Hi experts, Will you please confirm below command lines I run to examine between group differences in LGI? I have 3 questions listed. I can’t run the below line, it gives an error: mris_preproc --fsgd TDvsNDDageSAsex.fsgd --cache-in lh.pial_lgi.fwhm0.fsaverage --target fsaverage --hemi lh --meas pial_lgi --out lh.pial_lgi.0.mgh mris_preproc --fsgd TDvsNDDageSAsex.fsgd --cache-in rh.pial_lgi.fwhm0.fsaverage --target fsaverage --hemi rh --meas pial_lgi --out rh.pial_lgi.0.mgh Therefore, I run the below line instead - although I know it’s for uncached data and I have already ran qcache for my subjects (using: recon-all -s 101031_01 -qcache -measure pial_lgi) mris_preproc --fsgd ASDvsADHD.txt --target fsaverage --hemi lh --meas pial_lgi --out lh.pial_lgi.mgh mri_surf2surf --hemi lh --s fsaverage --sval lh.pial_lgi.mgh --fwhm 0 --cortex --tval lh.pial_lgi.0.mgh # I run above line separately for right hemisphere 1. Do I have to write “cortex” in above command line or not? 2. Is it okay to run this command line considering that qcache has already been run on all my subjects? 3. I’ve ran qcache (and above command line) multiple times on each subject in my data. Is this ok? Or does this mess up anything? To test for main effect of group, I ran below line: mri_glmfit --y lh.pial_lgi.0.mgh --fsgd ASDvsADHD.txt dods --C betweengroupdifferencecontrollingforageSAsex.mtx --C agebydiagnosisinteraction.mtx --surf fsaverage lh --cortex --glmdir lh.ASDvsADHD.glmdir mri_glmfit --y rh.pial_lgi.0.mgh --fsgd ASDvsADHD.txt dods --C betweengroupdifferencecontrollingforageSAsex.mtx --C agebydiagnosisinteraction.mtx --surf fsaverage rh --cortex --glmdir rh.ASDvsADHD.glmdir To correct for multiple comparisons using monte carlo: mri_glmfit-sim --glmdir lh.ASDvsADHD.glmdir --cache 1.3 abs --cwp 0.05 --2spaces mri_glmfit-sim --glmdir rh.ASDvsADHD.glmdir --cache 1.3 abs --cwp 0.05 --2spaces I'd really appreciate your soon reply, Thanks so much for all your support, Avi

Tksurfer and qdec: error sourcing and floating exception

External Email - Use Caution Hello all, I have been using freesurfer-Darwin-OSX-stable-pub-v6.0.0-2beb96c on macos high sierra, then I updated to mojave 10.14. freeusrfer was working all good for a while. BUT, for unknown reasons, I am no longer able to overlay the significance maps using tksurfer and cant open qdec, like below: command: tksurfer fsaverage lh inflated output error: subject is fsaverage hemi is lh surface is inflated surfer: current subjects dir: /Users/wsweidan/Desktop/GLM_trial surfer: not in "scripts" dir ==> using cwd for session root surfer: session root data dir ($session) set to: surfer: /Users/wsweidan/Desktop/GLM_trial checking for nofix files in 'inflated' Reading image info (/Users/wsweidan/Desktop/GLM_trial/fsaverage) Reading /Users/wsweidan/Desktop/GLM_trial/fsaverage/mri/orig.mgz surfer: Reading header info from /Users/wsweidan/Desktop/GLM_trial/fsaverage/mri/orig.mgz surfer: vertices=163842, faces=327680 surfer: single buffered window surfer: tkoInitWindow(fsaverage) setting percentile thresholds (-1.00, 0.00, 0.00) surfer: using interface /Applications/freesurfer/tktools/tksurfer.tcl Reading /Applications/freesurfer/tktools/tkm_common.tcl Reading /Applications/freesurfer/tktools/tkm_wrappers.tcl Reading /Applications/freesurfer/lib/tcl/fsgdfPlot.tcl Reading /Applications/freesurfer/tktools/tkUtils.tcl Error sourcing /Applications/freesurfer/tktools/tksurfer.tcl: bad distance "0.125i": can't be negative reading white matter vertex locations... % Floating exception command: qdec output error: Floating exception I reinstalled freesurfer again and I still get the same errors. Freeview works just fine. Any input of how to solve this issue? Thanks in advance, Wafaa

Re: [Freesurfer] hippocampal subfield as CONN seeds
by Greve, Douglas N.,Ph.D. 21 Jun '19

21 Jun '19

There are several things that will need to be done, and they can be quite tricky. Since you already have a registration between the fMRI and the MNI, you will have to create a rigid registration from the FS anatomical to the fMRI, then concatenate the registrations into a single registration. You can then apply the registration to the FS segementation with mri_label2vol using the --seg option. It will not be easy to extract all these matrices, sorry, I don't know enough about SPM to help you out much more.

SPM linear? FSL non-linear? That command definitely will not work. You have to do it in exactly the same way as CONN or else the segmentations won't align.

Im not sure I understand the question because I have not successfully registered the hippoSfLabels file to mni space. I can load the hippoSfLabels.mgz file into CONN at the subject level, but I have two problems. 1st it is not in MNI space. 2nd it is the whole hippocampus and I want to be able to use masks of the individual subfields. To try and convert the hippoSfLabels file to MNI space though I used the following. mri_vol2vol --mov lh.hippoSfLabels-T1-T2.v10.mgz \ --targ $FREESURFER_HOME/average/mni305.cor.mgz \ --xfm transforms/talairach.xfm \ --o test.mgz Eric The information in this e-mail is intended only for the person to whom it is addressed.

registration with bbr and determination of motion regressors with mcdat2mcextreg
by Pfannmoeller, Joerg Peter 21 Jun '19

21 Jun '19

Hello, I have used bbr to register all EPI volumes in my time series to the brains of my participants. The fMRI time series at each vertex was determined based on this registration. I would like to use motion regressors in the GLM analysis. Is it appropriate to extract the motion parameters from the bbr registration matrices to use them as input to mcdat2mcextreg? Are there any conventions I need to take into account? Best Joerg

External Email - Use Caution Hello FreeSurfer Developers, I'm attempting to get some pictures about my results , so QDEC was used. However I can't adjust those pictures which QDEC produced, such as picture1. When I read other's paper, they provided different pictures just like picture2. If there any other methods to produce statistic pictures of brain? Can you give me some advices? Thank you for your help. Best regards Abby

bbregister- switched coronal and axial views error
by Wenzhen Zhao 21 Jun '19

21 Jun '19

External Email - Use Caution Dear list, After running preproc-sess on fmri data, bbr-sum was 0.94. After looking through images of template.nii.gz with register.dof6.lta file, I found that coronal and axial views of template(w/ registration applied) are switched. $preproc-sess -s sess01 -fsd rest -surface fsaverage lhrh -mni305 -fwhm 5 -per-run Is there any possible error that I might have made? or is there any way to fix it? I appreciate your help! Thanks, Wenzhen

Re: [Freesurfer] Problem with installation test

External Email - Use Caution Hello Shrabani, It looks like you do not have tcsh installed on your machine to run recon-all which is a tcsh script, If you are using RedHat/CentOS linux, $ sudo yum install tcsh Fedora linux $ sudo dnf install tcsh Ubuntu/debian linux, $ sudo apt-get install tcsh I would also probably install csh the same way as well. - R.
