The parcellation I mentioned below is CIFTI, so it will work without issue with 
CIFTI fMRI data.

Peace,

Matt.

The CIFTI fMRI data does not contain subcortical information outside those 
defined ROIs.  If you need to redefine them, you would need to get the data 
from the volume fMRI files, and the resulting cifti files would be challenging 
to compare/use with the released cifti data.

You can incorporate volume subcortical parcellation data within the existing 
CIFTI subcortical ROIs into a dlabel file that also contains a cortex 
parcellation, see

 .

Ok, but is it possible then to use another NIFTI parcellation, for instance, a 
functional parcellation, with the CIFTI fMRI data? Or, since the subcortical 
regions are already defined in the CIFTI file, is not possible to re-define 
these ROI?

Thank you again,

Vicente

The AAL parcellation is not thought of as a particularly accurate functional

Thank you for the prompt reply. We are interested in whole-brain parcellations, 
in particular we would like to extract the averaged time courses according to 
the AAL parcellation (Tzourio-Mazoyer et. al, 2002), so it would include both 
cortical and subcortical regions.

Best,
Vicente

What kind of a NIFTI parcellation is this?  Subcortical?

parcellation


Dear HCP data users,

We would like to use the fantastic resting state fMRI data set from the HCP :)

We are interested in extracting the time series from the minimal preprocessing 
resting fMRI data to later perform our own analysis.

After checking the available information, it seems that the most appropriate 
way to extract the average signal in each region of interest is to use the 
cifti-parcellate command.

In the help section we have seen that the cifti-parcellate command has four 
arguments:

wb_command -cifti-parcellate

<cifti-in> - the cifti file to parcellate

<cifti-label> - a cifti label file to use for the parcellation

<direction> - which mapping to parcellate (integer, ROW, or COLUMN)

<cifti-out> - output - output cifti file


Our questions are:

1) For the <cifti-label> argument, how can we transform our nifti parcellation 
atlas into a cifti label file for both cortical and subcortical areas?

We have seen that there is a wb_command -cifti-create-label command, but we are 
worried that for example our hippocampus label is different from the 
hippocampus label in cifti… So, is there any way to transform our nifti atlas 
into cifti without using the already determined CIFTI structures?

2)For the for <cifti in> argument, we use the file  
“rfMRI_REST1_LR_Atlas_hp2000_clean.dtseries.nii”

from the folder 
100307_3T_rfMRI_REST1_fixextended\100307\MNINonLinear\Results\rfMRI_REST1_LR . 
Is that correct?

Thanks in advance for your help,

Vicente and Ana
