External Email - Use Caution
Hello FreeSurfer Developers,
I was wondering about the volume calculation of the structures in the aseg.stats file.
VoxelVolume_mm3 0.512 NVoxels 8616 Volume_mm3 4312.4 StructName Right-Hippocampus
After my calculation of NVoxels * VoxelVolume I get a slightly different value. 0.512*8616 = 4411.4
Where does the difference come from?
Thanks, René
Hi René
our volume calculation corrects for partial volume effects, so it does more than just counting voxels. cheers Bruce On Thu, 25 Apr 2019, Schranzer René wrote:
