This is a test we do before we release. The averages don't look
out of line. Putamen should be smaller because we now try to
remove claustrum. Small structures may have some large percent
differences. Some structures are not that meaningful (like the CC
because it has no real boundaries). The left lateral ventricle may
be a problem. I've seen cases where it totally gets filled in with
WM in v6. Others are hard to define -- when I would look at the
scans there would not be a good case for rejecting one and
accepting the other (eg, pallidum and thalamus don't have good
contrast at typical mprage acq parameters).
Dear FreeSurfer experts,
When I ran Freesurfer 5.3 and Freesurfer 6.0 I ran with default settings using this command. recon-all -s (id) -all for both Freesurfer 5.3 and FreeSurfer 6.0.Are these differences larger than one would expect? I think that 100% may be a little high? The difference in volume between Freesurfer 5.3 and Freesurfer 6.0 is shown in the table below calculated using asegstatsdiff.

_______________________________________________Dear FreeSurfer expert,I have compared the aseg volume between FreeSurfer 5.3 and FreeSurfer 6.0 with asegstatsdiff from FreeSurfer 6.0 for each subject in my data set. I have enclosed the range for some of the volume. I found the largest differences in subcortical structures, especially in Corpus callosum(CC). I found that FreeSurfer 6.0 CC posterior volume was 525.51 % larger than in FreeSurfer 5.3. Nevertheless, these differences were much smaller for lhCortex, but also here FreeSurfer 6.0 was on average larger than FreeSurfer 5.3. I ran the FreeSurfer 6.0 using the same option as FreeSurfer 5.30. Both versions of FreeSurfer were run on Centos. I am also enclosing a table with mean values along with min and max for differences between FreeSurfer 5.3 and FreeSurfer 6.0 aseg volumes.
