Hi, thanks, would the fix for this problem be released as something that I then would use to rerun mris_ca_label (and mris_anatomical_stats and mri_aprac2aseg) and get better results, or would I have to rerun a whole bunch of earlier steps (so I would want to hold off with processing for now)? Jeff

Hi Jeff,
With regards to the cortical parcellation and the mislabelling of the anterior cingulate cortex (rostral anterior cingulate in the parcellation atlas), we are aware of this as a problem and are in the process of fixing it as we speak. If you were interested in editing the parcellation labels, my suggestion would be to first convert the *.aparc.annot file into individual labels (i.e. *h.rostralanteriorcingulate.label, *h.corpuscallosum.label) and edit the individual labels using tksurfer. You can view the parcellation labels with the curvature visible (Under View-->Label Style-->choose Outline instead of Filled) to differentiate cortical areas from non-cortical areas (i.e. corpus callosum, unknown).
best,
Rahul

Hi, I had a couple of questions regarding cortical/subcortical
segmentation-
- In our cortical segmentation we keep getting what look to be
inaccurate
segmentation of the rostral and caudal acc. It looks some of what
should be
labeled as one of those two areas is getting labelled corpus callosum or "unlabelled subcortical" instead, sometimes fairly large chunks. Does
this
indicate any problem earlier in the processing stream, and is there
anything
that can be done to prevent this? If not I saw that both tksurfer and tkmedit can be used to edit the segmentation, what would be the easiest
way
to do this?
- When registering a freesurfer anatomical to Feat output (using
reg-feat2anat) the registration seems to be somewhat inaccurate. Registering brainmask.mgz to our example_func using flirt has given us a better registration so far. Since reg-feat2anat seems to use flirt in
its
registration I was wondering what the difference might be resulting
from.
Does reg-feat2anat use T1.mgz as it's reference scan, and if so is there
any
way to have it use brainmask instead, as that seems to give better
results?
Thanks, Jeff
