myelin analysis with cortical thickness pvr
by Damien MARIE 26 Nov '18

26 Nov '18

External Email - Use Caution Hi, I would like to replicate an analysis I did with qdec but regressing out thickness at the vertex level. It’s a myelin group difference with age and left average myelin as nuisance factors. I used the mri_glmfit command line generated during that qdec analysis and added the pvr flag but I got that error message: ERROR: dimension mismatch between X and contrast /home/damien/bin/freesurfer6/subjects/qdec/10nov/contrasts/lh-Avg-Intercept-R1projfrac0.5.mat X has 7 cols, C has 6 cols I understood I had to change the contrast.mat and added a 0 at the end for the pvr: +1.00000 -1.00000 +0.00000 +0.00000 +0.00000 +0.00000 +0.00000 Can you please tell me if it is correct??? I would like to be sure. I see more or less the same results than before except that some clusters are a bit degraded let say, as if I was working with a lower level of smoothing. Damien

freeview showing results in a strange manner
by 姜时泽 26 Nov '18

26 Nov '18

External Email - Use Caution | | Dear freesurfer experts, I am using freesurfer to analyze my PET data according to the tutorial online. It works pretty well and I write the values of the results of each region to the template with Matlab (file attached here entitled "lh.subj1.mgz"). However, when I try to open it with freeview, the image looks quite strange ('Picture_1') but it works with tksurfer (Picture_2). Does any one know what is wrong with this? Did I plot the result in a wrong way? Thanks very much Shize -- Shize Jiang Fudan University, Department of neurosurgery, Huashan Hospital, Shanghai Medical College Shanghai,200032,P.R.China Mobile: (86)18317079839 E-Mail: sjiang13(a)fudan.edu.cn | | | |

Paired Analysis Contrasts
by srishti goel 26 Nov '18

26 Nov '18

External Email - Use Caution Hello, I am trying to perform a paired analysis for a data set that has subjects' who belong to either group1 or group2 and have data at time point1 (tp1) and time point2 (tp2). I am following all the steps on the wiki but I want to clarify if the contrasts I plan to use for my analyses are appropriate. For my analyses, I only have two groups and no covariates. I am interested to know if the decrease in cortical thickness of subjects in group 1 across tp1 and tp2 is more than the decrease in cortical thickness of subjects in group 2 across tp1 and tp2. The contrast I think should be used for this is: 1 -1. Is that correct? I am also interested to know if the cortical thickness decreased for subjects regardless of the groups so should I use the contrast: 1 for that?

recon-all after n4 correction
by Kathryn Fitzgerald 26 Nov '18

26 Nov '18

External Email - Use Caution Dear FS experts, I was wondering if it is possible to run recon-all (e.g. autorecon2, autorecon3) on skull-stripped images which have gone through N4 correction. Would it be okay to run? recon-all -i sub1.nii.gz -subjid s1 -autorecon1 -sd . -noskullstrip I saw the work around for already skull-stripped images, but I wasn't sure if this would be appropriate for images which have also been corrected by N4. Or is there another way I should approach this? Thank you for the help in advance! Kind regards, Katie

Re: [Freesurfer] error while loading shared libraries, FSLVm7_64

External Email - Use Caution Hello Karin, If you take a look at this page, https://surfer.nmr.mgh..harvard.edu/fswiki/CMake  you should see there is a link to a file makefile.wiki which you can download.   Besides trying to run the cmake command for you to help with building Freesurfer, there are some notes in the makefile about what packages to install with “sudo yum install <package>” for CentOS/Redhat linux.  So you could try installing those packages, and then also try using that makefile to run cmake and build freesurfer..- R.

e-TIV
by 박경일 26 Nov '18

26 Nov '18

External Email - Use Caution Dear experts, When I see the images through freeview to edit, upper brainstem and optic chiasm were always included in wm or brainmask.mgz, as an attached picture below. Left side seems to be recognized as white matter, and right side as cortex. My concern is that this could affect the final value of e-TIV after recon-all process, so I need to edit these areas manually. I'd appreciated your help. Thanks so much. Kyung

extracting FA from FA_skeletonised with freesurfer parcellation
by Winkelbeiner, Stephanie A 23 Nov '18

23 Nov '18

External Email - Use Caution Hi, I try to extract FA values from the FSL FA skeleton using the freesurfer aparc.a2009s+aseg+2mm parcellations. I did the following: 1. Recon-all to obtain --> aparc.a2009s+aseg+2mm 2. TBSS in FSL to obtain --> all_FA_skeletonised 3. Tbss_deproject to split up all_FA_skeletonised into individual skeletons (native space) (*_FA_FA_all_FA_skeletonised.nii.gz) 4. Non-linear transformation of aparc.a2009s+aseg+2mm to subjects' native space (parc2dwi.nii.gz) 5. Creating binary mask for each subjects FA skeleton to exclude 0 voxels (*_FA_skeleton_mask.nii.gz) 6. Extracting FA values using mri_segstats with the following command: cd subj1/ mri_segstats \ --seg mri/parc2dwi.nii.gz \ --ctab $FREESURFER_HOME/FreeSurferColorLUT.txt \ --i skeletons/SPN01_CMH_0001_01_FA_FA_all_FA_skeletonised.nii.gz \ --mask skeletons/SPN01_CMH_0001_01_FA_skeleton_mask.nii.gz \ --excludeid 0 \ --sum skeletons_FA.stats The FA values I obtain are around 0.1 which is highly unlikely, especially for regions such as the corpus callosum. Is there some obvious error in my approach? Or can someone recommend a different approach? I would be very grateful for some help!
