Combining -3T and -mprage flags
by King, Daniel (Research Student) 30 Apr '18

30 Apr '18

External Email - Use Caution Hi Freesurfer community, I am currently running Freesurfer 6.0 and have run a number of 3T MPRAGEs through recon-all. I have also run these with the -mprage and -3T flags to compare outputs. I have therefore ended up with four runs of the same test patients: 1) Without flags 2) With the -3T flag only 3) With the -mprage flag only 4) With both the -3T and -mprage flag (in terms of order of operations I had the mprage flag then the 3T flag) However, when checking the outputted volume and CT measurements the values for the run 2 (just 3T flag) and the run 4 (with both flags) produce identical measurements. Does this mean that the mprage flag does not operate in the presence of the 3T flag? It was my assumption that the two flags call very different changes to the recon-all pipeline (-3T affects Taliarch atlas used and the nuintensity correction whilst -mprage affects mri_segment and mri_normalize parametres). In this case is there still any benefit in running both of the flags or is the 3T flag making the mprage flag redundant?

orig.mgz versus T1.mgz
by C.P.E. Rollins 30 Apr '18

30 Apr '18

External Email - Use Caution Dear Freesurfer developers, A collaborator shared with me Freesurfer outputs, but I would like to some analyses requiring the scans in NIFTI format. I understand mri_convert should do the trick for this, though I was wondering whether I should use "orig.mgz" or "T1.mgz" to convert back to the original T1 NIFTI files. Many thanks, Colleen

cannot find subject
by Jacobs, H (NP) 29 Apr '18

29 Apr '18

External Email - Use Caution Dear FreeSurfer, I just installed FreeSurfer6 on my computer and tried to run a subject (license file is set). I sourced freesurfer and have set the subjects_dir. However, when running the recon-all, I get the following error : ERROR: cannot find /Applications/freesurferv6/subjects/S006 And running echo $SUBJECT_DIR gives me this output: /Users/heidi/Desktop/tryout Any suggestions what may be the problem? Thank you Heidi

POST-DOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP IN NEUROIMAGING
by Xiaosong He 28 Apr '18

28 Apr '18

POST-DOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP IN NEUROIMAGING THOMAS JEFFERSON UNIVERSITY/ SIDNEY KIMMEL MEDICAL COLLEGE, PHILA., PA. The Department of Neurology at Thomas Jefferson University/Jefferson Medical College has an opening for a Two-Year Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Neuroimaging focusing on both clinical brain mapping and primary cognitive neuroscience investigations. The emphasis in our neuroimaging program is on cognitive and behavioral network organization and plasticity in neurologic disorders such as epilepsy. The lab focuses on the use of advanced network neuroscience measures to understand seizure networks and cognitive reorganization in epilepsy, and has had recent publications in Brian, Neurology, and Epilepsia, with some also prompting complimentary peer reviews. The lab is part of the Jefferson Comprehensive Epilepsy Center, an internationally-known epilepsy surgery program. Presurgical brain mapping studies are undertaken (MRI volumetrics, task-fMRI, resting state functional connectivity, diffusion imaging, neuropsychological assessment, electrophysiology/electrocortical stimulation) as well as post-surgical neuroimaging studies investigating clinical, cognitive, and behavioral outcomes. The pre-surgical brain mapping studies are conducted on a regular basis, utilized in image-guided surgery, and then made available for research. Studies in brain recovery and the cognitive reorganization of language and memory functions are emphasized, utilizing rich multi-modal datasets for the investigation of both cognitive and pathologic (e.g., seizure) networks. Thomas Jefferson University provides a high-level interdisciplinary research environment with grand rounds, seminars, case conferences, and opportunities to collaborate with faculty across departments such as neurosurgery and radiology. Successful applicants must have a strong background in image processing and analysis using programs such as MATLAB, SPM, Freesurfer, and FSL with a strong interest in clinical neuroimaging and cognitive neuroscience. Applicants must have a Ph.D. or MD in neuroscience, biomedical engineering, statistics, neurology, neuropsychology, radiology, or related field. Interested applicants should send a CV and cover letter stating experience and interests, 2-3 peer-reviewed publications. Anticipated start date is 7/1/18, but is flexible. Contact: Joseph I. Tracy, Ph.D., ABPP(CN). Director, Cognitive Neuroscience and Brain Mapping Laboratory, Thomas Jefferson Univ./Sidney Kimmel Medical Coll., Jefferson Hospital for Neuroscience, 901 Walnut Street, Suite #447, Phila., PA 19107, phone:#215-955-4661, e-mail: joseph.tracy(a)jefferson.edu.

?h.area
by Joost Janssen 27 Apr '18

27 Apr '18

External Email - Use Caution Hi, Short: Is it possible to generate v6.-style ?h.area based on v5.1-recon output? If so, how? Long: I have 5.1 processed data and would like to re-generate ?h.area v6-style (Winkler et al. 2018). I would like to avoid complete rerunning through v6. Thanks, -joost

Re: [Freesurfer] mri_compute_volume_fractions

External Email - Use Caution Dhivya, this syntax works for me with version 6. With version 5.3.0 I am getting the same error mesage. I do not know how the correct syntax is with version 5.3.0. Antonin Skoch Yep , I am using "o" .I am running it on Ubuntu 16.04 and my freesurfer version is , freesurfer/5.3.0/bin/freesurfer mri_compute_volume_fractions --o test --regheader 002_S 002_S/mri/norm.mgz still I am getting , unknown option --o Trying to give as per documentation, which is --o outstem --regheader subject I am really sorry to bother you with so many questions.

And the --regheader syntax different than I thought, it requires two argments, a subject name and a template volume (if you are using the anatomical space, any of the conformed volumes such as the norm.mgz should be fine). For example, I run: mri_compute_volume_fractions --o test --regheader bruce.dev bruce.dev/mri/norm.mgz $Id: mri_compute_volume_fractions.c,v 1.22 2015/09/14 12:25:01 fischl Exp $ sysname Linux hostname sulc.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu machine x86_64 user fischl setenv SUBJECTS_DIR /homes/4/fischl/links/subjects cd /autofs/space/tiamat_003/users/subjects mri_compute_volume_fractions --o test --regheader bruce.dev bruce.dev/mri/norm.mgz outstem test regfile (null) regtype 0 segfile aseg.mgz . . .
