Hi Tom,
Could be the qdec table has weird characters. Try with a simplified table (only a few rows, created in a text editor from scratch, space separated).
best, Martin

Dear FreeSurfers,
I've been trying to run a longitudinal cortical thickness analysis in FreeSurfer but unfortunately, so far, it has not worked.
After preprocessing the data following the instructions from the tutorial, I tried running: long_mris_slopes --qdec /Volumes/WD/Long/qdec/long.qdec.table.dat --meas thickness --hemi lh --do-avg --do-rate --do-pc1 --do-spc --do-stack --do-label --time years --qcache fsaverage --sd /Volumes/WD/Long/
And the following error came out: Parsing the qdec table: /Volumes/WD/Long/qdec/long.qdec.table.dat ERROR: qdec table /Volumes/WD/Long/qdec/long.qdec.table.dat not found or empty?
The path is correct and there are no empty lines in the file.
When I ran: mris_preproc --debug --qdec-long qdec/long.qdec.table.dat
This comes out: set echo = 1 ; set debug = 1 ; set debug = 1 breaksw breaksw
end end while ( $#argv != 0 ) while ( 2 != 0 )
set flag = $argv[1] ; shift ; set flag = --qdec-long shift
switch ( $flag ) switch ( --qdec-long ) if ( $#argv == 0 ) goto arg1err ; if ( 1 == 0 ) goto arg1err set fsgdf = $argv[1] ; shift ; set fsgdf = qdec/long.qdec.table.dat shift if ( ! -e $fsgdf ) then if ( ! -e qdec/long.qdec.table.dat ) then echo "ERROR: cannot find $fsgdf" ; echo ERROR: cannot find qdec/long.qdec.table.dat ERROR: cannot find qdec/long.qdec.table.dat exit 1 ; exit 1
Do you have any idea why this is happening?
Thank you so much!
