Re: [caret-users] Issue with displaying voxel intensities

Hi Rickert,

Assuming you used File: Open Data File: type = Volume Anatomy File, you should 
see a normal T1w image.

If you see solid white, then please upload the volume here, so we can try to 
replicate the problem:

[caret-users] Issue with displaying voxel intensities

2014-06-18 Thread HINDRIKS, RIKKERT
Dear all,

When I load a T1-weighted scan into Caret, the image looks like a mask,
that is, all white voxels covering the brain. The voxel intensities
themselves are, however, nicely distributed and the grey and white matter
peaks are clearly visible. Also, the intensities are normalized between 0
and 255. This problem does not occur when I view the scan with MRIcron or
SPM. Does anyone know what is going on here?

Thanks alot,
Rikkert

Re: [caret-users] Brodmann areas 13-16 - Insular cortex

2014-06-18 Thread David Van Essen
Hello Milan,

Years ago, I generated the Brodmann surface-based maps in Caret by manually 
estimating areal boundaries on a surface-based atlas using as a reference the 
classical Brodmann drawing of a right hemisphere (reprinted in Polyak, 1947).  
Because this illustration did not include insular cortex, these areas were 
omitted from the surface-based parcellation.   

Several other parenthetical comments that you and others might find helpful:

1) The Brodmann areal boundaries on our surface-based atlases are only crude 
approximations, because Brodmann did not indicate their location within sulcal 
cortex.

2) Human cortical parcellation is a very active research arena.  We have made 
available surface-based parcellations based on architectonics that cover about 
1/3 of cortex, along with resting-state fMRI parcellations that span all of 
cortex.

3) FYI, Caret software is being maintained but not developed further.  My lab 
is currently focused on  continued development of Connectome Workbench 
(http://www.humanconnectome.org/software/connectome-workbench.html).  Workbench 
performs most of what Caret can do (but better!) and has many additional 
visualization and analysis features.  Caret spec files and data files can be 
imported into workbench-compatible format.
