I believe Dr. Iglesias previous responses on this exact question have been, "yes it's possible, but your results may be harder to reproduce" e.g. If someone wanted to replicate your study they may have a harder time having to download 2 different versions of freesurfer to achieve comparable results with your study.
I think the general consensus is "how many subjects do you have?" -- if it's less than 50, you may want to just rerun v6 on your subjects as it should preserve the edits -- but it's recommended you still open them up and double check. -Adam On Thu, Jan 26, 2017 at 8:37 AM Rizvi, Batool <br2...@cumc.columbia.edu> wrote: > > > > > > > > > > > > > Hi, > > Can anyone comment on my question below? > > > I think the FAQ page mentions that the same version should be used to > process all cases within a dataset, but my question is whether I can have > the same dataset used for two different versions for separate analyses? > This is considering that I've already > > processed all my data with 5.3, but am interested in getting hippocampal > subfields through 6.0. > > > > > > > > > > > > > Thanks so much! > > > Batool > > > > > ------------------------------ > > > *From:* Rizvi, Batool > > > *Sent:* Wednesday, January 25, 2017 12:54 PM > > > *To:* freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu > > > *Subject:* freesurfer 6.0 with some of the analyses > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Hi, > > > I'm wondering if it's okay to run some of the analyses within one study > on v.5.3 and the other hippocampal analyses on 6.0? > > Or do you recommend us starting over for the analyses we've already done > in 5.3 for that study? > > > > > > > Thank you! > > > Batool > > > > > > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > > Freesurfer mailing list > > Freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu > > https://mail.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/mailman/listinfo/freesurfer > > > > > > The information in this e-mail is intended only for the person to whom it > is > > addressed.
