Thanks bruce, like creating expert.opts text file in the scripts directory and inserting the command "mri_normalize -norm-b 25". Right? This is the modified script
1 #!bin/bash -eux 2 set -e 3 echo -e "EntireFreeSurferpipelinewithAutocontrolpoints" 4 5 SubjectID="$1" 6 SubjectDIR="$2" 7 T1="$3" #T1 FreeSurfer Input 8 T2="$4" #T2 FreeSurfer Input 9 10 recon-all -autorecon-all -i $T1 $T2 T2pial -s $SubjectID -parallel -hires
11 #we need to get aseg, brainmask, norm, brain 12 aseg=$SubjectDIR/$SubjectID/mri/aseg.presurf.mgz 13 brainmask=$SubjectDIR/$SubjectID/mri/brainmask.mgz 14 norm=$SubjectDIR/$SubjectID/mri/norm.mgz 15 brain=$SubjectDIR/$SubjectID/mri/brain.mgz 16 17 #make sure to create an expert.opts text file in the SubjectID/scriptsdirectory like this (SubjectID/scripts/expert.opts) and write down the command line "mri_normalize -norm2-b 25 18 echo "mri_normalize -norm2-b 25" > x.opts 19 20 #include T2pial since you are rerun -autorecon3 21 recon-all -s $SubjectID -autorecon2-cp -autorecon3 -expert x.opts 22 23 echo -e "done"
2) Since I am rerun -autorecon2-cp and -autorecon3 then, do I need the T2pial flag. 3) I named the expert option file expert.opts, shouldn't I replace the "x.opts" with the name of the file (please see lines 18 and 21) 4) For line 18, any reason why you suggested I remove "mri_normalize -mprage -norm2-b 25 -aseg $aseg -mask $brainmask $norm $brain"? 5) Do I need to specify the path to the expert.opts files? Cheers, Pascal

Hi Pascal
I think you need to put it in an xopts file as the command line calls -mprage after -b 20 and so will reset it. BTW: I used all the way up to -b 25 and things improved, so you might try that. At some point you will start eroding the gray/white boundary as you increase the -b threshold, but 25 looked ok to me

Thanks bruce. That's
Line 1 recon-all -all -i T2 T2pial -s subjectID -parallel Line 2 mri_normalize -mprage -norm2-b 20 -aseg aseg.presurf.mgz -mask brainmask.mgz norm.mgz brain.mgz This is in visual studio code

you can put the mri_normalize -b 20 line in a file, and use it as the expert options in recon-all torerun autorecon2-cp and autorecon3 with it

yes, that is the right command line. I don't know ifyou will need more control points, but that helped a lot. -a specifies the intensity threshold above 110 and -g specifies the spatial gradient for the 1d normalization cheers Bruce
On Fri, 3 Feb 2017, Pascal Goodman wrote: Hello Bruce, Thank you very much. a) The mri_normalization command line is wherecontrol points starts (normalization2). Right? b) Also, is this right command " mri_normalize -mprage -b 20 -aseg aseg.presurf.mgz -mask brainmask.mgz norm.mgz brain.mgz"? c) Do I need any other flag besides -b? d) I don't need to make the manual control point edits right? e) Lastly, what does -a (float a) and -g (float g) mean? Cheers, Pascal

I don't thinktissue priors will help due to the complexity and variability of the folding patterns. There may be other interventions though - can you send us some examples of where things don't look accurate to you?

HelloBruce, Thanks for replying. I am trying find ways to improve white matter surface (to reduce manual intervention by control points) with the probability map. Also, how do I extract the multiple prior maps you mentioned. Thank you. Best, Pascal

whatare you trying to achieve? Internally we have multiple prior maps of this type, but I don't think we are setup for a user to supply a different one

Hello Freesurfer, I do have a question. Can FS take probability maps of tissue
segmentation as prior?
Thanks,
