Many thanks for the reply,

Yep, unfortunately MG values are always much higher than SGTM ones (in all the ROIs). 
I wonder whether this might be related (for MG and MZ) to the absence of a normalization using the pons as a reference.

Indeed, when I look at the file with mean values extracted for each modality, I see that the pons has always 1000 as mean uptake value for no PVC and SGTM, while for MG and MZ values in the pons range from -0.02 to -0.65 (for MG) and from 0.94 to 0.99 (for MZ).
Pons should be 1.000 in the SGM and NoPVC. Which version of FS are you using? In version 6, pons was considered white matter, but I changed it to gray matter in version 7. The bottom line on this is that you cannot compute uptake in WM in MG. So, if pons (or any other ROI) is WM, then its value is bogus.

Below are the commands I’ve used to obtain the MG and MZ values:

1) With Muller-Gartner (MG):

mri_gtmpvc --i ../Subj_PET_image --reg Subj_template.reg.lta --psf 6 --seg Subj_gtmseg.mgz --default-seg-merge --mgx .01 --o gtm_MG.output

 Then:

mri_segstats --i gtm_MG.output/mgx.ctxgm.nii.gz --seg gtm_MG.output/aux/seg.nii.gz --ctab gtm_MG.output/aux/seg.ctab --sum MG_ROI.txt

2) With Meltzer (MZ):

mri_gtmpvc --i ../Subj_PET_image --reg Subj_template.reg.lta --psf 6 --seg Subj_gtmseg.mgz --default-seg-merge --Meltzer .1 .1 1 --o gtm_MZ.output

Then:

mri_segstats --i gtm_MZ.output/meltzer.nii.gz --seg gtm_MZ.output/aux/seg.nii.gz --ctab gtm_MZ.output/aux/seg.ctab --sum MZ_ROI.txt


Do you recognize any errors in the commands?


Many thanks,

Pilar

The NoPVC and SGTM values are reasonable. The MG value is pretty crazy.
I don't put stock in MZ. Is the MG value much higher than SGTM in other
ROIs? What is your mri_gtmpvc command?

Hi Freesurfer experts,

I?ve run a PETSurfer analysis in order to compare mean?uptake values
of ROIs obtained with different methods: No PVC, SGTM, MG and MZ.
However, I?ve now extracted the mean values and they are extremely
heterogeneous.
As an example, the same ROI (lh banks of the superior temporal sulcus)
has the following uptake values:

No PVC= 1.709
SGTM= 2.495
MG= 23.847
MZ= 15.564

I?m particularly worried for the huge difference between noPVC - SGTM
values and MG-MZ values.

Any advice? I wonder whether this finding is normal or there is
something I?ve missed.

Many thanks,

Pilar

Dear list,

As described by others on this list, recon-all with Freesurfer 7.1 on
a Mac operating system seems to fail for around 10% of the subjects.

The following solution was offered:

sudo curl
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/freesurfer/freesurfer/dev/scripts/rca-long-tp-init
?-o rca-long-tp-init
sudo chmod +x rca-long-tp-init
However, this did not solve the problem for me.

I re-ran recon-all for the same subjects, but it still failed, some of
them at the following step:

"#######################################
GCADIR /Applications/freesurfer/average
GCA RB_all_2020-01-02.gca
GCASkull RB_all_withskull_2020_01_02.gca
AvgCurvTif folding.atlas.acfb40.noaparc.i12.2016-08-02.tif
GCSDIR /Applications/freesurfer/average
GCS DKaparc.atlas.acfb40.noaparc.i12.2016-08-02.gcs
#######################################"

It simply stopped running there.

Others did finish running, but instead got a segmentation fault error.

What could I do? I have Mac High Sierra.

I don't know what is going wrong here. One simple thing to check is to
make sure that all the input files have the same number of vertices as
the surface. If that is the case, then upload the subject and input
files using the instructions below

From the linux command line,
Create the file you want to upload, eg,
cd $SUBJECTS_DIR
tar cvfz subject.tar.gz ./subject
Now log? into our anonymous FTP site:
ftp surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu
It will ask you for a user name: use "anonymous" (no quotes)
It will ask you for a password: use "anonymous" (no quotes)
cd transfer/incoming
binary
put subject.tar.gz
Send an email that the file has been and the name of the file.

Hi Doug,

I used FS 7.1 under WSL to analyze retinotopy data.? Since the ring
and wedge were presented at a different frequency, the data had to be
analyzed separately for each condition.? To get the field sign, I had
to use the mri_fieldsign function to combine polar and eccen data.
However, an error happened with running mri_fieldsign: ?Segmentation
fault????? (core dumped)?.? The following is the command-line output.

Thanks for your help!

???????External Email - Use Caution

Hi Doug,

I have a question surrounding our attempts to extract PET binding
values (BPND/DVR) which have been first transformed into FS subject
space, mapped to the cortical surface using mri_vol2surf (signal
averaged over the middle 80% of the cortical ribbon), and then
displayed on the inflated hemisphere surfaces.

We would like to extract the average binding values from the cortical
surface ROIs using the Desikan-Killiany atlas, but are unsure how to
go about this. Is there a simple way to use aparcstats2table or a
similar command to extract average values from surface ROIs as
defined by the ?h.aparc.annot file?

Thanks!
