Hi Matt,

Thank you very much for the quick answer.

We have our data analyzed with another pipeline that also uses Freesurfer functions. For this reason we prefer to calculate myelin maps outside of the HCP Pipelines.

Do you think the way of calculating the maps that I explained in the previous question is evenly valid?

Best wishes,

Marina

I would use the HCP Pipelines for this.

Dear experts,

I want to calculate myelin maps using the ratio of T1w and T2w MRI images.
I saw that the correction of partial volume effects can be used to create
the maps (Shafee, Buckner & Fischl, 2015)*.

Can I use the PVC functions of PetSurfer for this purpose? And in case I
can:

Should I apply PVC only on T1? Or also in T2?

Which T1 should I use? The original T1 or the T1 with corrections (for
example, the nu.mgz file that is corrected for variations in intensity)?

Any other advice for calculating myelin maps would be welcome.

Thank you in advance,

Marina
