Hi Doug,

I used the mri_compute_volume_fractions and fscalc commands and got this error message:

mri_compute_volume_fractions: Command not found.
fscalc: Command not found.

Other FreeSurfer commands, such as mri_segstats are working fine in the same batch script.

Alright that should work. So do I use the pet.anat.nii files
(from mri_vol2vol) as the input pet file to the
mri_compute_volume_fractions?

No, use the pet volume. This does everything in the pet space.

Also, has anyone published using this pv correction method
that you know of?

I don't know. I think this is how they do pvc in pet, but I really
don't know the lit.

An alternative method that I was thinking was to do something
similar to the cortical thickness correction Salat used and
sample on either side of the gray/white boundary and the
gray/csf boundary and calculate the ratio. Do you think this
could account for the effects of pv in pet?

David's method was not for doing pvc, and I would not use it for pet.

Actually, I think it only will affect the volume
measurement for
each structure, so that's no good. There is not a flag to
mri_segstats that will do this. If you have a registration
between
your native pet data and the FS anat, then you can use

mri_compute_volume_fractions regfile.dat pet.nii pvf
This will create pvf.{gm,wm,csf}.mgz

You can then correct the pet with something like
fscalc pet.nii div pvf.gm.mgz pet.pvf.nii

You can map the aparc+aseg into the pet space using
mri_label2vol
(and the reg from above), then use mri_segstats with the
files in
the native pet space.

Hi Doug,
I will give that a try. How will this account for the
p.v. in
pet data? Does it remove the voxels that are mixed tissue
classes? Does it account for partial volume effects between
neighbouring grey matter structures?

Hi Corinna,
try adding --pv mri/norm.mgz

Hi all,
I am wondering if partial volume is taken into
account when
calculating average uptake values of pet data. I
know that
aseg.stats takes partial volume into account and
I am
wondering if there is something similar in place for
pet data?
From what I gather, most people when using
FreeSurfer
correct
for partial volume effects by regressing out
cortical
thickness, but no basis for this correction
method has been
provided. Any insight would be appreciated.

n.b. to obtain the pet uptake values I used
mri_segstats --seg
mri/aparc+aseg.mgz --sum pet.segstats.dat --i
$petanat
--ctab
rois.txt

Thank you,
Corinna
