It's a funny coincidence that the number of meshes is equal to the number of labels... For each mesh, you can rasterize all labels, indexed as in the table.

Okay. I'm still a little unclear. So I'm looking at the compression lookup file (left in this case) and seeing this:

24   2  CSF     60 60 60 255
2   0  Left-Cerebral-White-Matter     0 225 0 255
3   1  Left-Cerebral-Cortex     205 62 78 255
17   3  Left-Hippocampus     220 216 20 255
550   5  left_CA2_3     17 85 136 255
552   9  left_CA1     204 68 34 255
553   4  left_fimbria     204 0 255 255
554   7  left_presubiculum     221 187 17 255
555   10  left_hippocampal_fissure     153 221 238 255
556   6  left_CA4_DG     51 17 17 255
557   8  left_subiculum     0 119 85 255

Then when I look at the CurrentMeshCollection, I am seeing Positions 0-9, and the reference position, which as you said is -1. What is the correspondence between these labels and meshes? Sorry if I'm being obtuse--I'm just having trouble piecing it all together.

Best regards,
Raja

Hi again, Raja.
Which labels and meshes to use depends on what you want to do. If you extract all the priors corresponding to all the labels in the atlas (the list is in $FREESURFER_HOME/data/GEMS/compressionLookupTable.txt), you would have a volumetric version of the atlas (rather than a mesh).

Final question regarding this: what combinations of labels and meshes should I use? Should I do all combinations between labels and positions, matching labels/positions only, etc? How can I tell which meshes correspond to what labels/areas?

Thanks for your time,
Raja

Shame on me; there's a way of doing this. You need a reference volume; for the hippocampal subfield atlas:
$FREESURFER_HOME/data/GEMS/CurrentMeshCollection30.gz
the reference volume would be:
$FREESURFER_HOME/data/GEMS/imageDump.mgz

The command would be:

kvlRasterizeAtlasMesh CurrentMeshCollection30.gz imageDump.mgz [labelNumber] [meshNumber]

"meshNumber" is the index of the mesh to extract in the collection; use -1 for the reference position.
labelNumber is the label whose probability map you want to rasterize ( 0 = white matter, 1 = gray matter, 2 = CSF, 9 = CA1, etc; see $FREESURFER_HOME/data/GEMS/compressionLookupTable.txt).

From the volumetric rasterized prior probability map, you can easily compute volumes, if you want.

Cheers, and sorry again for the original wrong answer,

Hi again! 

I have another question about the hippocampal subfields atlas--might be a silly one. Is there a way to extract volumes from the mesh collection?

Thanks a lot,

Did you run recon-all -subjid bert -hippo-subfields? If so, there should be a log file with the output from the hippo-subfield code in $SUBJECTS_DIR/bert/scripts/hippo-subfields.log. You can take a look at it to get an idea of what happened.
Kind regards,

Thanks very much for the prompt response. The command I ran was 

$ kvlQuantifyPosteriorProbabilityImages /Applications/freesurfer/data/GEMS/compressionLookupTable.txt posterior_right_* posterior_Right-Hippocampus.mgz

in $SUBJECTS_DIR/bert/mri

And yeah, it's not in the mri directory. Any idea what might have gone wrong and how I can try and fix it?

Thanks,
Raja

Hi Raja,



I'm have a question regarding the GEMS hippocampal segmentation. I saw on the wiki how to run -hippo_subfields, but how do I access the atlas itself? What file is it under.

That would be $FREESURFER_HOME/data/GEMS/CurrentMeshCollection30.gz



Also, I'm not sure if I'm missing some files: whenever I try to do one of the individual commands using, for example, posterior_Right_Hippocampus.mgz, it gives the following error:

volumeInVoxels:
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'itk::ExceptionObject'
  what():  itkMGHImageIO.cxx:216:
itk::ERROR: MGHImageIO(0x56b5c0): Can't find/open file: posterior_Right-Hippocampus.mgz
Abort trap


What command is this? In any case, it's pretty clear that the file is missing....


Also, upon searching through my freesurfer directory, I cannot find any posterior_Right-Hippocamus.mgz or posterior_Left-Hippocampus.mgz files.
It should be under the "mri" directory. If it isn't, there was some problem running the algorithms.

Cheers,

/Eugenio





Thanks very much for your time,
Raja
