External Email - Use Caution        

Thank you. How do I generate this image? It wasn't generated using recon-all.

aparc+aseg does not have the thalamic nuclei. You need to run it on ThalamicNuclei.v10.T1.FSvoxelSpace.mgz

Hi Douglas,


mri_segstats wouldn't generate binary ROI masks, so I tried using mri_binarize and mri_extract_label to produce masks for thalamic nuclei, but I run into the same problem of generating empty masks (these commands worked for other ROIs):


  •   $: mri_extract_label aparc+aseg.nii 8005 thalamus_vent_lat.nii

reading volume from aparc+aseg.nii...

extracting label 8005 ()

writing output to thalamus_vent_lat.nii.


  • $: mri_binarize --i aparc+aseg.nii --o thalamus_vent_lat.nii --match 8005

7.1.0

cwd /data/freesurfer/subjects/S12452/mri

cmdline mri_binarize --i aparc+aseg.nii --o thalamus_vent_lat.nii --match 8005

I'd appreciate any feedback you may have.

I don't know. I'm not that familiar with FSL programs. If you want our help, try using mri_segstats. If something goes wrong send the command line

Hi Douglas,

I see the CLUT file, it's the same one I've been using. I have been using FSL (fslmaths) to extract anatomical ROIs from the aparc+aseg using the CLUT indices as thresholds. This normally works, but results in empty ROIs for thalamic nuclei (but not for whole thalamus). What do you think could be the problem?

Best,
Ameen

Dear Freesurfer Developers,


I hope this email finds you all safe and well. I have two questions regarding the new version of freesurfer: 

  • Is there a new CLUT associated with FS7? I tried to use the CLUT labels to extract thalamic subnuclei ROIs, but got empty ROI files.
They should be  in $FREESURFER/FreeSurferColorLUT.txt
How are you extracting?
  • Given that Freesurfer version 7 contains segmentations not previously generated in recon-all (i.e. hippocampal subfields), is it possible to extract these ROIs using aparc+aseg images generated using previous versions of Freesurfer? Or do we need to repeat the cortical parcellations (i.e. rerun recon-all) using FS7?
You can run  the hippocamal and thalamic segs on FS version 6 subjects.

I’d highly appreciate your time and feedback on this matter. Thank you.


Best,

Ameen
