Dear Bruce,

I read this article "Atlas Renormalization for Improved Brain MR Image Segmentation Across Scanner Platforms(2007)" and I wonder if theses steps  "normalization" and "normalization2" do the Atlas Renormalization which mentioned at that article or should I use another command myself to do the Atlas Renormalization that the article proposed? (sorry if the question is basic)


Best,
Nazanin

Hi Nazanin

there is no easy way to display a partial volume. You can still use Dice/Jaccard on the hard segmentations, but we have found that the partial volume correction improves e.g. test/retest reliability and probably accuracy, although that is harder to prove.

cheers
Bruce

Dear Bruce

is there any 3D image file which shows the segmentation regions after this
correction ?and if there is not is it right to use aseg.mgz file for
reporting Dice or Jaccard Index (I have manual segmentation as gold
standard)?

Best Regards,
Nazanin

      the volumes reported in the aseg.stats file have been corrected
      for partial volume effects.

            Dear FreeSurfers,
            I have a question about aseg file. I load the aseg
            file of bert subject in
            itk-snap and read the volume for 17 and 53 label but
            it is a bit larger of
            the volume in bert stats file. I do the same for
            some of my subjects too and
            I see the same result .I don't know why it is like
            that ?would you please
            clear the reason for me.because I need to  compare
            the FreeSurfer result and
            I should use of aseg file labels but I'm afraid the
            comparison I'm doing is
            not valid.   

            Sincerely yours,
            Nazanin
