Hi,
No such option in ft_read_cifti currently.
I've added Robert in case he wants to comment.

You should be able to remove the NaN and get a standard ordering.  If you want to check, you can use the 'ciftiopen.m' alternative for loading CIFTI and compare that you get the same ordering.

cheers,

Subject: Re: [HCP-Users] ft_read_cifti too many grayordinates

Hiya,

Is there such an option with ft_read_cifti to omit these "non-standard” grayordinates? 

If not, and instead we use Matlab to remove the NaN rows/columns and ‘squeeze’ the connectivity matrix, can anyone confirm that we will always get a “standard”, correctly ordered, dense connectivity matrix that we can directly compare across subjects? (I’m assuming that I always get a 96854^2 matrix from ft_read_cifti and then find and remove 5572 rows/columns of NaNs). No other gotchas, pitfalls etc?

Cheers,

M@

HI Matt - thanks - so is there an option with ft_read_cifti for excluding those grayordinates that are not part of the "standard" 91k set, upon read-in?
Cheers

Some of us don’t think that code should do that.  You can manually remove the NaNs, or use alternative software (option B):


Peace,

Matt.

Subject: [HCP-Users] ft_read_cifti too many grayordinates

Hi,

When I use ft_read_cifti to load the dense connectome I end up with 96854*96854 grayordinates and lots of NaN's. This appears to be because the centre of the brain is included in the cortical surfaces, which I can remove manually to end up with the expected 91282 grayordinates and no NaN's. However, I was just wondering if this behaviour is expected and fixing it manually is ok, or if this is indicative of other associated bugs please?

Thanks!!

Best wishes,

Janine
