Hi, I am having problems with tracula pre-processing for a case of a series I am analyzing. The processing worked without errors for two out of three cases I was running at the same time. I received a 'segmentation fault' error. I checked the FreeSurfer recon-all output, and it was completed without errors. I tried to re-process the case alone: got the very same outcome. I am enclosing the log file of the tracula processing of the case that's giving me an error. Let me know if you need more information/files. Thanks, -Michele

I don't think that would change the results (significantly), so you would just be wasting processing time. It depends on the quality of your data. In this thread, as Anastasia said earlier, there is distortion around the L orbitofrontal cortex, which may have caused the problem Michele was having (reconstructing the L uncinate).
But if you're *only* interested in a subset of the available tracts, you should probably comment out the others, if you want to save time.

Dear all,
What does this mean? That tracula is more robust when running it seperately for the tracts I am interested in? Thanks, Barbara

errata corrige: it did work! I had to re-run the whole thing including only that specific tract...and eventually it worked.

Tried...unfortunately it didn't improve

You can try just re-running "trac-prep -prior" and "trac-paths" for the L uncinate and no other tracts

So, I re-ran the case with the set reinit option. It "half" worked!...in the sense that the new results show the left uncinate right, but the right-side one is still a dot (see screenshot of the brain view from the bottom). Any further suggestion? Thanks.

Thanks! it's running...

Hi Michele,
Don't think there is anything wrong with the attached dmrirc.tutorial file. You definitely need to add the '-c' flag infront of the path to your configuration file. Right now it reads the path to your file as a flag, which is of course not what you want.
Best, Barbara

Hi Anastasia, I am probably doing something wrong with the syntax of the dmrirc file. I get this error message
trac-all -prior /Users/michele/Desktop/tracula/sages_diff_test_tracula/sages_uncinate_dmrirc.tutorial

Could you please check the attached file?
