Dear Shane,

I have checked the aseg.mgz and in only one I would say the segmentation failed however the others look fine and I'm taking the measurements from the text file that is generated from the aseg.stats.
Should I redo the recon-all with a different input? I have always given freesurfer T1 and a T2 scan to process  both having a resolution of 0.8x0.8x0.8 mm.

Sincerely,
Michel Hu

Hi Michel Hu,

Yes, that’s too large for MCI or even controls for that matter I think. Have you checked the aseg.mgz? I generally find that the hippocampus is well segmented, even in patients with a lot of atrophy.

Are you taking the measurements with the asegstats2table?

Sincerely,

Dear Shane,

I apologize for not being clear. The reported value is of only one half of the hippocampus.
I have only run 4 subjects of the 75 however they all have a reported value of between 6000 to 10000 mm^3 summed together for the hippocampus.

Sincerely,
Michel Hu

Hi Michel Hu,

Is that a summed value of left and right hippocampus? That seems normal to me since averaged total hippocamppal volumes for MCI have been typically reported at around 2500-3500mm3.

Thanks,

Dear Freesurfer experts,

I have run several subjects through the recon-all pipeline including the hippocampal segmentation with freesurfer 6.0 on Ubuntu 16.04. However when looking at the text file with the volumes it seems that all the numbers are bigger than normal as all my subjects have MCI and freesurfer reports them having all over 5000 mm^3. I was wondering if the problem could lie somewhere in the recon-all process?
Thank you for your time

Sincerely,
Michel Hu
