Add the following lines to your startup.m file

FSH = getenv('FREESURFER_HOME');
fshmatlab = sprintf('%s/matlab',FSH);
path(path,fshmatlab);
clear fshmatlab;

It's the screen distance from the cursor or point clicked to the
vertex it's reporting as the one the mouse is over or clicked.

Re: [Freesurfer] regarding mkanalysis-sess.new and brainmasks

2006-04-10 Thread Doug Greve


I usually set it to about 20 sec (the interpretation of this parameter 
is that the temporal autocorrelation will return to 0 beyond this 
spacing). The brain mask is used to restrict the voxels overwhich the 
autocorrelation is computed and averaged (don't want to include air 
voxels in the computation). What do you mean that you see non-uniform 
values in the sig volume?

the sig volume, while actually expecting close to nothing, but I guess 
I have not groked how the masking is supposed to work... I would be

And while on the matter, is there a way to allow empty conditions, 
i.e. use a sparse condition numbering in the .para files (trading the 
check for missing conditions versus the possibility to use stable 
identifiers for loads of conditions used over different days).

	Mmh, I was expecting that all the voxels outside the brainmask would 
not take part in the analysis/calculation at all, or that all the 
non_brain voxels in the sig_NNN.bfloat volume of the contrasts would be 
zero as well. Mmh, maybe that is because I did not specify a -taumax.
	Just started a test run with -taumax 20, and each Slice N, NN. 
-- line is followed by a NBrainVoxs =  line, so user 
error on my part. Redid an analysis right now, and the end result with 
-taumax 20 has way less significant activation outside the brain 
proper. Thanks for the explanation.

[Freesurfer] Repeated-measures in mris_glm

2006-04-10 Thread Fornito, Alexander
Hi,
I'd like to run a simple repeated-measures analysis tetsing for change in 
thickness measures between 2 time points. There is no between-subjects factor, 
only the effect of time. Do I just set up a standard DOSS FSGD file, or do I 
use a different format? The tutorial only covers between-subjects designs.
Thanks,
Alex

Re: [Freesurfer] Repeated-measures in mris_glm

2006-04-10 Thread Doug Greve


There are two ways to do it:

1. You can use DOSS, making each subject it's own class. Then create one 
Variable. For a given input, set the variable to either +1 or -1 
depending upon whether it corresponds to  the first or second time 
point. Then create a contrast as [0 0 0 0 ... 0 0 0 1], where there are 
as many 0s as subjects. The last 1 will correspond to the Time Point 
variable.


2. Alternatively, if you are using mris_preproc, you can specify 
--paired-diff, then just use a one-sample group mean test. See the 
--help. This may be easier, and will also allow you to add a between 
subject factor.

 Subject: Re: [Freesurfer] Repeated-measures in mris_glm


 There are two ways to do it:

 1. You can use DOSS, making each subject it's own class. Then create one
 Variable. For a given input, set the variable to either +1 or -1
 depending upon whether it corresponds to  the first or second time
 point. Then create a contrast as [0 0 0 0 ... 0 0 0 1], where there are
 as many 0s as subjects. The last 1 will correspond to the Time Point
 variable.

 2. Alternatively, if you are using mris_preproc, you can specify
 --paired-diff, then just use a one-sample group mean test. See the
 --help. This may be easier, and will also allow you to add a between
 subject factor.

 Hi,
 I'd like to run a simple repeated-measures analysis tetsing for change in 
 thickness measures between 2 time points. There is no between-subjects 
 factor, only the effect of time. Do I just set up a standard DOSS FSGD file, 
 or do I use a different format? The tutorial only covers between-subjects 
 designs.
 Thanks,
 Alex

RE: [Freesurfer] Repeated-measures in mris_glm

2006-04-10 Thread Doug Greve


Oh, I'm sorry. I see the problem now. When I said to create a class
for each subject, I meant for each person, not for each FreeSurfer
subject. So there should only be 5 classes, not 10.

So do something like this:

Class class_subj1
Class class_subj2
Class class_subj3
Class class_subj4
Class class_subj5

Variables   Time
Input time1_subj1 class_subj1   -1
Input time2_subj1 class_subj1   +1
...

Yes, mris_preproc is new with stable. In your FSGD file, try
specifying the title as a single string without spaces.

Hi Doug,
Is mri_preproc a new addition to the stable version? I'm using recon-all-nmr,v 
1.104 2005/09/07 and can't seem to find it.
I tried running the analysis through mris_glm as per option 1 as you described, 
but came across a problem. Command, error, and my FSGD are below. Thanks,
Alex
