[Freesurfer] ROI from left to right hemi - cortical thickness

2012-07-09 Thread Irene Altarelli
Dear all,

I have a ROI on the left hemisphere and I'd like to extract cortical
thickness values from the homologous region in the right hemisphere. For
this I applied the interhemispheric registration process and got my ROI
mapped into the right hemisphere in /subject/xhemi/label. 
However when I tried to run mris_anatomical_stats on /subject/xhemi it
failed, as there is no wm.mgz file in /subject/xhemi/mri.

Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Irene

[Freesurfer] mris_divide_parcellation

2012-07-09 Thread Arnaud Messé
Dear all,
I'm using mris_divide_parcellation to subdivide cortical regions into 
smaller regions and I've some questions about such process.
I would like to transform my new annot file to labelled surface and 
labelled cortical volume.
For the former, there's a 'simple' way to transform annot file to 
surface? I only found utilities that tranform label2surf..
For the latter, I think that I need to use mris_annot_to_segmentation, 
however I need a colortable associated with my annot file. So my 
question is how can I generate a colortable from 
mris_divide_parcellation output.
I would be really greatful for any insights about these.
Thanks.

[Freesurfer] Using SPM transformation matrices as initial guess in talairach_avi

2012-07-09 Thread Baudrexel, Simon
Hello,

since I experienced a high rate of registration errors using talairach_avi in 
the conventional recon-all processing stream (more than 50% misregistration), I 
would like to incorporate SPM affine registration parameters (as provided in 
the seg_inv_sn.mat file obtained from the segmentation routine) as initial 
guess to help talairach-avi. Is there a possibility to do this? How do I have 
to adjust the transformation matrix that it can be handled by freesurfer?

I also tried to circumvent the registration-problem using skull-stripped 
images, which unfortunately also did not improve the results (I think a 
template made from skull-stripped images has to be used in that case)


Any help would be much appreciated

Regards,
Simon

[Freesurfer] Brainhack 2012

2012-07-09 Thread MCLAREN, Donald
Dear colleagues,

I wanted to draw your attention on the upcoming 2012 Brainhack, 1st
edition, to be held from September 1-4 at the Max Plank Institute for Human
Cognitive and Brain Sciences, Leipzig, Germany. Brainhack is not a
conference or a workshop. It should be closer to one of those exciting
conversations you may have had at HBM during cocktail or poster sessions.
Except that we will have over three days to build up those conversations
into full-fledge collaborations. One should come to brainhack ready to
engage into collaborative projects, and with some material (slides, ideas,
data, tools) ready to start a project or a discussion panel. Brainhack will
build on the successful techniques used in other
unconferenceshttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unconference to
keep the meeting focussed and productive. It is possible to start a project
and build a team as early as today. Please have a look at the website for
informations on the conference and a sample of projects (more will be added
over the summer):
http://brainhack.org/2012/04/06/brainhack-2012-unconference/

The list of confirmed attendees includes F. Xavier Castellanos, Michael
Hanke, Michael P. Milham, Tal Yarkoni, Arno Villringer, and many members of
the neurobureau http://www.neurobureau.org/NeuroBureau/Welcome.html.
Brainhack
is a satellite of the resting-state connectivity
conferencehttp://www.restingstate.com/.
Although many participants will have an interest in connectivity analysis,
there will also be attendees coming from a variety of backgrounds within
neuroscience. Registration is now opened:
http://www.cbs.mpg.de/events/workshops/brainhack

Please do not hesitate to share this invitation with your circles.

Re: [Freesurfer] wm problems

2012-07-09 Thread Bruce Fischl

Hi Nicole

what version are you running? It's hard to diagnose from just the images. 
In general, if the surface doesn't follow the wm.mgz it means there was a 
topological defect that was corrected in that region. You can find it and 
fix it be editing the wm. If you can't find it, upload it and send us the 
coords you are looking at and we'll find it and show you.

Hi all,
I've been having two variants of problems with wm.mgz, using version5.1. One
can be seen in the attached screenshot FI137 - areas that are not white

create problems with both surfaces. This has happened in a number of our
subjects, in multiple locations throughout each brain. Is this something we
just need to delete manually on each subject, or is there a more efficient
way to deal with this?

The second is seen in the screenshots of MP860 wm. An area that is not white
matter, and is not designated as white matter on wm.mgz, is still created as
a white matter surface. This hasn't happened as often as the above, but we
don't know how to get rid of an inaccurate wm surface if it's not on wm.mgz.

Thanks for your help,

Re: [Freesurfer] wm problems

2012-07-09 Thread Nicole Senecal
Hi Bruce,

It's version 5.1. Thanks for the suggestion about the second problem
(surface not following wm). For the white matter hypointensity problem
(surface follows wm volume, but wm is incorrect; this occurs in several
places on multiple subjects), will we just have to delete this manually
from wm.mgz in every case? I can upload a recon with the problem if this
would help.

thanks,
Nicole

Re: [Freesurfer] Using SPM transformation matrices as initial guess in talairach_avi

2012-07-09 Thread Bruce Fischl

Hi Simon

what version are you using?  Avi Snyder (ccd) has been tracking down some 
interactions between his talairach code and our intensity normalization 
that seem to have made it more fragilie, particularly in 5.1. He has some 
suggested fixes that may improve things for you.

Re: [Freesurfer] nu_correct problem

2012-07-09 Thread Christopher Bell
I believe this post slipped through the cracks. Anyone have any thoughts
on this nu_correct error. Some subjects ran fine, so it seems to be an
intermittent
problem and not an installation problem.

Also, is this possibly related to the avi_talairach/intensity normalization
issues
being discussed in another post?

 I can see on the archive that several others have run into this problem,

[Freesurfer] multiple correction

2012-07-09 Thread Meng Li
Hi, freesurfer expert,
I have three questions about the multiple correction.

I performed the statistical analysis between two groups first in left 
hemisphere, and got some regions which showed different.
1) so if I then do multiple correction, i don't need to run the mri_glmfit-sim 
command, and just press the button of the monte carlo null-z simulation in the 
qdec interface, am i right?
2) Whether mri_glmfit-sim --cache command line and the mc-z in qdec get the 
same results, or not?  and as to the option --cwpvalthresh, should i choose 
0.05 or 0.025?
3) And what is the difference between fdr and mc-z correction?
Thanks,
Meng
