Great thanks Douglas! I'm glad that this is available, I wasn't too keen on using the 'flip the brain' method of looking for hemisphere asymmetries.

Just a few questions regarding the first step - Apply an existing atlas (fsaverage_sym); this looks like a "for" loop, which I'm not great at figuring out. I would like to know how to actually do this.

It seems like I would need to give it a list of all my subjects so that it can go through each subject separately without me having to run each participant separately. Is that correct? If so, and I have 40 participants, I'll need to leave the computer for a few days to do this. Is that correct?

Lastly, how do I create the subject list? I tried just creating a list of my subjects using text mate and keeping it in the subjects folder, then using that in place of (subject list). This didn't work.

Thanks again!

Hello,

I need to do a within group hemisphere comparison to see if there are any hemisphere asymmetries in a patient group. I would like to do this in QDec or if possible, somehow do it in freesurfer without using Qdec. I asked this question two years ago and you mentioned that you were working on this and it should be available soon. Has there been any progress?

Thanks!

Krista
