Hi Doug

 

I want to confirm that the signal any region flagged as cortex is restricted to gray matter. If that is the case, then I finally have what I need. Thank you.

 

Warm regards,

Are you doing an ROI analysis or a voxel-wise analysis? If an ROI analysis, then use mri_gtmpvc (with or without PVC). This will give you GM, WM, and CSF ROIs. Or do you mean you want a single average across all GM?

I would like to measure uptake exclusively in gray matter. What would you recommend to accomplish this?

In my previous message, I was wondering if adding a gray matter mask would be a potential way to restrict the analysis to gray matter. Thanks!

I don't understand. What mask?

If I only want to extract intensity from gray matter, do I need to add an additional mask?

 

Thanks!

The GTM gives you values for each ROI regardless of whether it is GM, WM, or CSF. They will probably give you similar answers, but the GTM will be more robust.

Thanks! Yes, I already mapped my PET to anatomical space using mri_vol2vol and glmdir/aux/bbpet2anat.lta.

 

RE: selection of mgx instead of gtm: I am analyzing amyloid PET data and I believe it is recommended to extract gray matter localized PET data. Is that what I am doing by using the mgx image?

You need to first map your pet to the anatomical space using mri_vol2vol and the registration glmdir/aux/bbpet2anat.lta
BTW, why are you computing the ROI anlaysis from the mgx data instead of using the output from the gtm? Note that you cannot use the white matter values that come from  mgx.

I am trying to extract mean intensity in my PET data for every ROI. Doug said to run mri_segstats passing the PET with --i and using --seg to spec the segmentation. I would like to confirm that I am using this properly.

 

mri_segstats --i $PET_DIR/$ID/gtmpvc.output/mgx.gm_average.T1.nii.gz --seg $SUBJECTS_DIR/$ID/mri/aparc+aseg.mgz --annot lh --slabel lh --sum $PET_DIR/$ID/gtmpvc.output/lh.PET_aparc.aseg

 

where $PET_DIR/$ID/gtmpvc.output/mgx.gm_average.T1.nii.gz is the PET data registered and resampled into the individual’s T1-weighrd MRI space.

If you want to do an ROI analysis using FS-based ROIs, you should do that at the individual level. Resample the PET to the anatoimical space, then run mri_segstats passing the PET with --i and using --seg to spec the segmentation. If you really want to do it in MNI305 space, then it is the same thing just using the MNI305-based (2mm) segmentation

Dear Freesurfer Developers

 

I am doing an ROI--based amyloid PET scan analysis. I have completed all of the steps from the PetSurfer wiki. I now have the preprocessed, averaged, resampled, smoothed PET data in MNI305 space which is constrained to the subcortical gray matter mask.

 

How do I extract mean intensity within all of the subcortical ROI?

 

Thank you!
