External Email - Use Caution
Hello,
Does FreeSurfer have an option for calculating gray matter density during recon-all, or does one need to calculate it manually? In that case, what is the formula?
The reason I would like to compute density is to replicate the effects show in this paper: http://www.jneurosci.org/content/early/2017/05/02/JNEUROSCI.3550-16.2017. I have seen other threads on FreeSurfer indicating that density is gray matter per unit volume, but it's unclear how to compute this.
Thanks!

That paper does not use FreeSurfer. We don't have a way to compute "density". Usually this is used in the context of VBM, but I don't see that mentioned in the paper either.
