Re: [Freesurfer] Tracula error - unknown queue "long.q", "short.q"

Thanks!

I will try that and let you know!

Yes, it does look from the images like the L-R and A-P directions are swapped. So you can switch around the x and y columns of you gradient table and rerun the preprocessing and check the eigenvectors again. It may be some other combination of swaps that needs to be done, but the x and y looks like the most likely to me. For sure the gradient table is wrong.

I've uploaded those files as well as dmrirc and bvecs and bvals.

Let me know what you think.

  Indeed, they look like they're oriented A-P in the corpus callosum

and L-R in the cinglulum, when it should be the opposite obviously. This'd mean you'd have to swap things in the gradient table. It's hard to tell for sure from the screenshot though. If you upload the dtifit_FA and dtifit_V1 volumes for me here, I'll look at them: https://gate.nmr.mgh.harvard.**edu/filedrop2/https://gate.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/filedrop2/

        Hi Anastasia,
        Thanks! I checked dtifit_FA and did the overlay with V1.

        They don't look ok to me (see attached picture). Any

suggestions on how to solve this? Perhaps by modifying any of the previous steps?

        Thanks!

              Hm, this looks uniformly bad. Have you checked that the

gradient directions are correct? You can check that by looking at the eigenvectors from the tensor fit that's done as part of the preprocessing. Although tracula doesn't use tensors for tractography, it's a quick way to check that your inputs are correct.

              In fslview, overlay dmri/dtifit_V1.nii.gz on

dmri/dtifit_FA.nii.gz, and display dtifit_V1 as lines. Then make sure that the lines follow the basic anatomy e.g. in the corpus callosum (L-R), cingulum (A-P), corticospinal tract (I-S).

                    Hi,
                    Thanks for all the replies, I solved the problem

I had before.

                    However, after finishing the Tracula

pre-processing steps I tried to visualize the tracts by typing:

                    freeview -tv CTR01/dpath/merged_avg33_mni_**

bbr.mgz

                    And, as you can see in the picture I'm attaching

to this email, it seems the tracts were not properly reconstructed.

                    Does anyone know why?

                    Should I make some changes and for example set

the control points differently from the ones proposed on Tracula website?

                    Any help will be greatly appreciated!

                    Thanks,

                    joana

                          Thanks for the pointers, Chris. I'd call it

an "opportunity for FSL customization" rather than an "FSL problem" per se :o)
