Hi all,
We want to normalize our data using eTIV and compared
the eTIV values generated in aseg.stats to the total brain volume we
calculate by summing:
1) Non-cerebral cortex volumes from aseg.stats (including ventricles)
2) Cerebral cortex volumes from lh and rh.aparc.stats
We
compared eTIV to the total brain volume as calculated above from aseg
and aparc.stats for 40 subjects and found that, on average, eTIV is 27%
larger. This difference is larger than we expect. Are we missing
something?
Thank you!
Jason
