Hi Manabu,

yes, you can run the post-processing (lme analysis) on the 5.1 data. The matlab tools should work, if any command line tool fails (e.g. stacking based on longitudinal qdec table), let us know and we'll send an updated script for that (or you copy it from 5.3 if you have that available).

Best, Martin

Hi experts,

I'm planning to apply linear mixed effects models to my longitudinal MRI dataset.

I found the LME Matlab tools are not included in FreeSurfer ver. 5.1. Is it possible 
to use the standalone copy of the tools linked in the website with FS ver. 5.1?
Do I need to run an extra command to my data before using them?

I have done all the data preprocessing with FS ver. 5.1, and I hope I don't have to do it again
from the beginning with a newer FS version…

Thanks!
Best,

Manabu
