Hi,
I am new to freesurfer. I have run reconall on 50 AD subjects. I have also run recon-all -qcache.
So I have the following -
1) Whole brain thickness map for each AD subject 2) age of each subject 3) gender of each subject 4) clinical score of each subject
I DO NOT have control subjects.
I want to run a glm to investigate whether if there is a relation between the clinical score for each subject and their cortical thickness while accounting for age, gender and whole brain average thickness.
Can I use qdec for this ?
This is my first time doing this sort of analysis, so I will be grateful if I can get some step-by-step help.
Thank you very much
Subha
Hi Subha, yes, you can. You will need to create a table in the format with QDEC expects. Have you looked at the tutorial?
