Dear Bruce,
Thank you for your quick and precise answer.
One last question. Is it possible to segment the Nucl. Subthalamicus? It is a subcortical anatomical structure, and is a part of the basal ganglia. It is not included in the output following the command:
asegstats2table --subjects 1_T1W_recon-all 2_T1W_recon-all 3_T1W_recon-all 4_T1W_recon-all 5_T1W_recon-all --meas volume --tablefile Subcortical.txt
Kind regards
Morten

Hi Morten
the insula you should be able to get out of the cortical labels in the various *.annot files. The substantia nigra we don't segment at the moment, and I suspect it would be hard to do so from only a T1-weighted scan.

Dear Experts,
I am interested in retrieving the volume of the insula and substantia nigra from T1W structural scans converted to nii.gz files. All scans have undergone the recon-all process without error.
I have seen volume estimations of Insula and substantia nigra performed in several studies, but I can’t seem to figure out how I retrieve these volumes.
I ran the command:
asegstats2table --subjects 1_T1W_recon-all 2_T1W_recon-all 3_T1W_recon-all 4_T1W_recon-all 5_T1W_recon-all --meas volume --tablefile Subcortical.txt
SUBJECTS_DIR : /Applications/freesurfer/subjects
Parsing the .stats files
Building the table..
Writing the table to Subcortical.txt
following this I get at fine output with several volume estimation of subcortical structures, but without the Insula (left and right), and without the substantia nigra (left and right).
I tried to run the same command on “Bert”, and ended up with the same result (with the insula and substania nigra still missing). I also tried to add the
--all-segs
But without any change in the output.
On the FreeSurferColorLUT(https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/FsTutoria l/AnatomicalROI/FreeSurferColorL UT) I can see that the structures I am interested in have the following numbers: 19, 27, 55 and 59.
Could you provide me answers on how to extract the volumes of the insula and substantia nigra?
Thanks a lot!
Kind regards
