Dear freesurfer users,
I have used freesurfer to segment hippocampal subfields. Then I used freeview to convert the derived .mgz files in .nii files for further analysis. I estimated the hippocampal subfields volumes with the command:
kvlQuantifyPosteriorProbabilityImages $ FREESURFER_HOME/ data/ GEMS/ compressionLookupTable.txt posterior_right_* posterior_Right-Hippocampus.mgz
I have calculated the number of voxels in the converted .nii files using SPM and realized that they do not fit the estimated volumes through freesurfer Example
for CA2-2 estimated voxel number though freesurfer: 6851 voxels found in .nii file: 15812
Did somebody had similar problems? Do you have any suggestion? Are there any incompatibilities between SPM and freesurfer? I did not find any apparent error in my counting script. Thank you very much and regards,
