Dear Freesurfer's,
I'm wondering if it is possible to use FreeSurfer to do the caudate segmentation automatically. I'm asking that because I did all my fMRI data analysis in BrainVoyager and currently I need to run more statistical analysis in this specific region (caudate). For that I need to have this ROI. However, to create it manually in BV I would need a lot of time. I'd like to check if there is a possibility to create this ROI automatically,using Freesurfer, and then export it to BV in order to finish my functional analysis there. Do you think this can be done ?
Thanks in advance!
All the best, Paula
Hi Paula
sure, we segment left and right caudate as part of recon-all (in addition to pallidum, putamen, ventricles, amygdala, hippocampus, etc....)
