Hi, I’m new to freesurfer, I’m an undergraduate currently doing research involving analyzing mri scans to produce volume measurements of the hippocampus. I’ve been using FSL’s FIRST method to do this thus far, but from what I’ve read online, freesurfer is much better for volumetric analysis of subcortical structures. The problem is that I can’t seem to find a good step by step tutorial to use free surfer. Also I’ve noticed free surfer runs on omgz files, and I’m dealing with nii files. I’d appreciate it if I could a step by step list of instructions on:
1) How to convert the nii files to mgz files correctly
2) getting volume of hippocampus from an mri scan
I appreciate the help, thanks!
