[Freesurfer] Qdec - generate stats data table

[Freesurfer] editing pial surface
Hi freesurfer experts, I am trying to correct the pial surfaces of my data. I was able to remove voxels with the right button of my mouse, but unfortunately, it didn't work out to add voxels. Can somebody please help me with that? Do I need a middle button on the mouse for it? Attached you may find a slice of the brain data. The red line (indicating the pial surface) and green line (indicating the grey matter/white matter boundary) cross, which should not happen in my opinion. Is there any possibility to change the lines so that they don't cross anymore?

Re: [Freesurfer] editing pial surface
Hi Julia it's really hard to tell from just this image. If the problem is the skull strip removing voxels you can use the clone tool to paint them back in from another volume like the T1.mgz.

Re: [Freesurfer] mkheadsurf and smseghead
Hi Will, I noticed this as well. I don't know Doug's thinking, but I suspect it was just to avoid generating lots of files. The new script overwrites the lh.seghead, when smoothing. I would just update your script to use lh.seghead instead of lh.smseghead.

[Freesurfer] Future of freesurfer
Hi all, I'm currently compiling/installing freesurfer on mac osx lion, ubuntu 12.04 (will be relased soon) and lots of packages which are required by freesurfer appear to be outdated. Is there any step-by-step installation/compilation tutorial somewhere in the web? Therefore I have a couple of questions: Do you plan to update the default libraries to newer versions sometimes soon? (I'm not sure for how long building against old packages will build viable?) Shouldn't freesurfer links against the current release of each library? Regarding the build system, do you consider switching to cmake? It would make easier to maintain, keep up to date and deploy freesurfer over mac and linux?

[Freesurfer] calculating DLPFC or frontal lobe grey and white matter volumes
Dear All We want to find frontal lobe grey and white matter volumes in a patient group to compare it with control group. In particular, we want to see the grey and white matter volumes in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC). However we seem to be having problems finding this region on the processed data for white matter volume (after recon-all command). It was previously suggested in this mailing list that we can get grey matter volume for the DLPFC by combining the following volumes: $hemi.G_frontal_middle.label $hemi.S_frontal_inferior.label $hemi.S_frontal_middle.label We are wondering how to get white matter volumes in the same region... If getting the DLPFC volume is difficult then can we just use the frontal grey and white matter volumes to make between group comparisons. From aseg and aparc files in the stats folder, adding all the following values below would give us frontal white and grey matter volumes. Or is there a simpler and less time consuming way to calculate grey and white matter volume in the frontal lobe?

Re: [Freesurfer] ERROR: comparison in expression (FS with SGE)
I'm dredging this 2 year old post up for the benefit of Google and anyone else who wonders about the cause of this. It is a non-fatal error (for FreeSurfer, but perhaps not other things) that is caused by having set the variable: POSIXLY_CORRECT=1 It causes bc (on Debian/Ubuntu) systems to fail when making comparisons like: echo '3.5 2.5' | bc -l I am guessing (because this is what I was doing) that the poster was using fsl_sub to launch FreeSurfer jobs in SGE. fsl_sub sets this flag for some reason, but commenting it out seems not to cause any problems.

[Freesurfer] QDEC with cluster-wise p=.1
Hello FreeSurfers, I want to do several cluster-wise corrections at a p value of .1, preferably in QDEC. To create the new template cluster, I am using this command: mri_mcsim --o test --base mc-z --surf fsaverage lh --nreps 1 --fwhm 10 Is there a way that I can tell mri_mcsim to do a threshold of 1.00 (p=.1) and only the abs sign?

[Freesurfer] Jacobian Questions
Hello, Since the jacobian files contain only positive numbers, is there any way to make a distinction between a brain area that needs to be stretched bigger to fit the template versus a brain area that needs to be squished smaller? fsaverage is comprised of 40 subjects, but I wonder if the jacobian is most accurate only for my subjects that have the same age as the fsaverage mean? If so, then the younger subjects would need to be squished and the older subjects would need to be stretched. But since the jacobian is always positive, then on a scatterplot of jacobian versus age, this would look like a hump centered on the fsaverage mean age. Am I on the right track with this?

[Freesurfer] Cortical Normalization Questions
Hello, For cortical thickness normalizations, Bruce said not to normalize based on a HBM abstract ( http://www.mail-archive.com/freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/msg06646.html). Is this still the consensus? For cortical volume, it is pretty standard to normalize to eTIV. For cortical surface area (jacobian), I couldn't find any information on the wiki. Does anyone have any recommendations?

Re: [Freesurfer] Jacobian Questions
Hi Jeff 1 means compressed and 1 means expanded. You can take the log if you want to turn it into the real line. I'm not sure age matters that much for the white matter surface, although it would for the pial one cheers Bruce On Thu, 22 Mar 2012, Jeff Sadino wrote: Hello, Since the jacobian files contain only positive numbers, is there any way to make a distinction between a brain area that needs to be stretched bigger to fit the template versus a brain area that needs to be squished smaller? fsaverage is comprised of 40 subjects, but I wonder if the jacobian is most accurate only for my subjects that have the same age as the fsaverage mean?

Re: [Freesurfer] Cortical Normalization Questions
Hi Jeff yes, I think this is still our recommendation for thickness, although perhaps David Salat can verify. As far as surface area, you might get Anderson Winkler to send you a preprint of his newly accepted paper on surface area comparisons and how to do them properly. I would have said normalize by the 2/3 root of ICV (maybe David can comment on this as well) cheers Bruce On Thu, 22 Mar 2012, Jeff Sadino wrote: Hello, For cortical thickness normalizations, Bruce said not to normalize based on a HBM abstract (http://www.mail-archive.com/freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/msg06646.html).

Re: [Freesurfer] Cortical Normalization Questions
Hi Jeff, I personally like the idea of using average thickness as a covariate to control for a reduction in whole brain thickness, and have used that approach in a paper. If the Abstract that you mentioned indicated that this is flawed, I'd be curious to know what the reason was... cheers, -MH On Thu, 2012-03-22 at 21:00 -0400, Bruce Fischl wrote: Hi Jeff yes, I think this is still our recommendation for thickness, although perhaps David Salat can verify.

Yes, I think Mike's approach is a good one also, although you have to be clear about the somewhat different hypothesis you are testing On Mar 22, 2012, at 9:15 PM, Michael Harms mha...@conte.wustl.edu wrote: Hi Jeff, I personally like the idea of using average thickness as a covariate to control for a reduction in whole brain thickness, and have used that approach in a paper.
