Hi,
I'd like to know where I can find a detailed description of the sub-cortical segmentation stages
thanks
Valentina
Hi Valentina,
they are described in:
Fischl B, Salat DH, van der Kouwe AJW, Makris N, Sonne F, Dale AM. Sequence-Independent Segmentation of Magnetic Resonance Images. NeuroImage 2004, 23 Suppl 1, S69-84.
Fischl B, Salat D, Busa E, Albert M, Dieterich M, Haselgrove C, van der Kouwe A, Killiany R, Kennedy D, Klaveness S, Montillo A, Makris N, Rosen B, Dale A.M.. Whole brain segmentation. Automated labeling of neuroanatomical structures in the human brain. Neuron. 2002; 33(3): 341-355

Hi, I used the statistical parametric map provided by Freesurfer to evaluate the differences in mean cortical thickness and the software marked an area (in red) located under the corpus callosum, in a region the does not correspond to any of the 34 regions of the atlas (unlabeled sub-cortical region). How I have to interpreter this result? thanks Valentina
Hi Valentina,
you should ignore the noncortical regions like this one. The thickness maps are meaningless there.
cheers, Bruce

Ok, but can you explain me why it marks those regions? Just to know because I need to explain the meaning of this results and I really don't know how! thanks Valentina

usually we mask them out so they are zero. What version are you using? In the most recent versions they shouldn't be an effect there, but it's something we fixed relatively recently.

I'm using the Version 20060418 that should be the last one right?

What tool are you using? If mri_glmfit, you can add
--label $SUBJECTS_DIR/fsaverage/$hemi.Medial_wall.label --mask-inv
If you're using something other than fsaverage and you don't have a medial wall label, then you can create one by mapping all the labels in aparc.a2005 to label files with mri_annotation2label.

Hi Doug, I didn't understand very well how to create a medial wall label. Where I can find I more detailed explanation? thanks

cd $subjecct/label Then run mri_annotation2label on the ?h.aparc.a2005.annot (run it with --help for more docs)

Hi, I sent an e-mail few days ago asking for the direction to create a medial wall label by mapping all the labels in aparc.a2005 to label files with mri_annotation2label to mask the non cortical regions on the thickness map. Can someone help me?
Thanks Valentina
Sorry, I've been in and out. Did you try mri_annotation2label ?
