[Freesurfer] mri_cvs_register - use of wmparc instead of aseg

2013-03-14 Thread Güllmar , Daniel
Dear Lilla,

i'm currently applying mri_cvs_register and I'm very happy with the nice 
results. Congratulation for this very clever approach. However, some data sets 
which I work on have still aseg.mgz which are not segmented appropriately. As 
far as I understand aseg.mgz is not redefined after e.g. pial-edits or added 
control points. Thus, I think it might be better to use aparc+aseg or wmparc 
instead of aseg within mri_cvs_register. Taking this into account I have the 
following questions:

1. Do you have experience with mri_cvs_register and --asegfname  Option 
different from aseg? Does it impact the processing time? Are there options, 
which have to be adopted?

2. Since I think it is better to use aseg instead of wmparc, since it contains 
fewer IDs and registration will not be overfitted, is there a convenient way to 
generate a new aseg.mgz, which includes manual corrections like pial edits?

3. The last question regards the norm.mgz ... since it also often contains to 
much (outer brain) volume .. would it be better to mask norm.mgz with (e.g.) 
wmparc or a dilated version of wmparc before using it with mri_cvs_register ?


Thanks you,
Daniel

[Freesurfer] convert from vtk to Freesurfer surface file format

2013-03-14 Thread Christine Tardif
Hello,

I would like to use the surface registration tools in Freesurfer. I first need 
to convert my vtk surfaces into the Freesurfer format. I tried mris_convert, 
but this seems to only convert from and not to the Freesurfer file format.

Does anyone know of another conversion tool available?

Thanks for your help,

Christine.

Re: [Freesurfer] Stat doubts

2013-03-14 Thread Douglas Greve
Hi Gabriel, I've attached a matlab routine which will compute the PCC. 
If you cd into the GLM dir, then


X = load('Xg.dat');
beta = MRIread('beta.mgh');
C = load('yourcontrast/C.dat');
rvar = MRIread('rvar.mgh');

betamat = fast_vol2mat(beta);
rvarmat = fast_vol2mat(rvar);

rhomat = fast_glm_pcc(betamat,X,C,rvarmat);

rho = beta;
rho.vol = fast_mat2vol(rhomat,rho.volsize);
MRIwrite(rho,'yourcontrast/pcc.mgh')

The R2 should just be the square of the PCC, right?

For the standardized beta, do you just divide the beta by sqrt(rvar)?

you probably want to specify the SUBJECTS_DIR as being somewhere else 
that you have write permission to. You can do this with the -sd path on 
the recon-all command line, or in the environment.

Re: [Freesurfer] Estimate of number of manual edits and time to complete in 100subject sample

2013-03-14 Thread Allison Stevens Player

Hi Kev,
For the two scenarios you mentioned, here are my best estimates. I assume 
a healthy, adult population scanned with our recommended sequences. Any 
other type of dataset (pediatric, one with some type of pathology, one 
acquired long ago using a less than optimal sequence or coil, etc.) would 
likely differ by a lot in terms of time estimates.


1. fMRI on good quality 3T
Maybe 25 out of 100 need some kind of intervention, including restarting a 
process that may have failed along the way. I would expect these 25 to 
have something terribly wrong with them to make them unacceptable for fMRI 
analysis but something that is most likely easily fixed by an automatic 
intervention. I'd estimate a half hour for each of the 25 or an hour for 
each to be extremely conservative.


2. Cortical thickness on good quality 3T
Maybe 50-75 out of 100 need some kind of intervention, depending on which 
areas you might focus on if you're not only interested in global 
thickness. Edits on half of those will be very small, 15-30 minutes a 
case. Edits on the other half may be more time consuming, 30 minutes to 1 
hour.


Allison

This is a question for the FS community in general,
I gather there is variability around this, but rather than an exact number and 
time, I was hoping
for an estimate on how many scans would I expect to require manual edits(any of 
the check points
recommended in the tutorials) as well as an estimate of the time it takes to go 
through them.

For the sake of the argument, take a sample of 100 subjects.

Thanks,

Re: [Freesurfer] long_qdec_table

2013-03-14 Thread Martin Reuter

Hi Chris,

the cross qdec table is messed up ( a single line without line breaks). 
long_qdec_table has problems reading your long-table because it contains 
'tabs', several spaces instead of a single one between other columns and 
also not the line breaks it expects (the windows format).


I will look into this, to see if I can make the program more flexible 
with respect to the input. In the meantime, you can

- replace tabs with spaces
- replace multiple spaces with single space
- replace line breaks with linux style line breaks

open it in linux with nedit and you'll see.

Best, Martin

[Freesurfer] volumetrics questions

Hello experts,
   I am doing volumetric studies where I am comparing the subcortical 
structures volumes among different experimental groups.
I usually  do two mprages on one subject in a single scan at two time-points. I 
run recon all on both mprages for a single subjects. To my surprise the volumes 
of same structure of a single subject calculated by freesurfer using two 
mprages are different.

I did longitudinal run using the two mprages from same subject, however then 
also the volumes show differences.

May you please advise me what to do.

Hi Rashmi

of course they are different - there is noise in the scans and motion and 
other sources of corruption! The amount of difference will depend on the 
structure and the quality of the data.

yes, you should use the longitudinal stream for your analysis. You are 
probably better off picking the better mprage (i.e. less motion) and 
analyzing it at each timepoint

Re: [Freesurfer] volumetrics questions

2013-03-14 Thread Rashmi Singh
Ok I have done that.
 I did run longitudinal run using each mprage as an individual timepoint.
So this way I got the longitudinal run stat output for both time points.
So do you suggest I average them out or take the result of the output from
one of the long run.
Or are you suggesting that I take the volumes from the base run output.
This seems so simple, am I complicating it?
Sorry if I am not understanding you!
Please advise.

[Freesurfer] question about autorecon2-cp, autorecon-pial and autorecon-wm flags

2013-03-14 Thread Mehul Sampat
Hi Folks,
I was looking at the autorecon2-cp, autorecon-pial and autorecon-wm flags
in recon-all help and also here
http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/OtherUsefulFlags

My interpretation is when I use autorecon-pial, I only need the command:
recon-all --autorecon-pial -s subject

While for autorecon2-cp and autorecon2-wm we need the command:

recon-all -autorecon2-cp -autorecon3 -s subject
recon-all -autorecon2-wm -autorecon3 -s subject

since for autorecon2-cp and autorecon2-wm only a subset of stages are
processed as described in recon-all help:
-autorecon2-cp : process stages 12-23 (uses -f w/ mri_normalize, -keep w/
mri_seg)
-autorecon2-wm : process stages 15-23

Thanks

take the best mprage at each timepoint and run it through cross-sectional

Re: [Freesurfer] Process flow: ReconAllDevTable

2013-03-14 Thread Mehul Sampat
Hi Nick
I have a followup question about Scenario D:

Scenario D (for pial edits):
1. recon-all -s subject -autorecon1 -autorecon2
2. edit brainmask.mgz (
http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/FsTutorial/PialEdits)
3. recon-all -s subject -autorecon-pial

I think -autorecon-pial is a subset of -autorecon3 ?
Is so then could i still run -autorecon-pial without running -autorecon3?
Or if i did this would i miss some of the outputs generated by -autorecon3.

Also if -autorecon-pial is a subset of autorecon3, is the following
scenario valid.
Scenario E (for pial edits):
1. recon-all -s subject -autorecon1 -autorecon2
2. edit brainmask.mgz (

3. recon-all -s subject *-autorecon3 (instead of -autorecon-pial)*

  However, when i run recon-all -s subj -autorecon1 -autorecon2
  i see that ?h.pial is also already created.
  Does this mean I am interpreting the process flow table
  incorrectly or is there an error in the table ?
 
 
  2. Also if ?h.pial and ?h.white are already created at the end

  need to run autorecon3 only once and save resources.

Re: [Freesurfer] mri_cvs_register - use of wmparc instead of aseg

2013-03-14 Thread Lilla Zollei

Hi Daniel.

 i'm currently applying mri_cvs_register and I'm very happy with the nice 
 results. Congratulation for this very clever approach. However, some data 
 sets which I work on have still aseg.mgz which are not segmented 
 appropriately. As far as I understand aseg.mgz is not redefined after e.g. 
 pial-edits or added control points. Thus, I think it might be better to use 
 aparc+aseg or wmparc instead of aseg within mri_cvs_register. Taking this 
 into account I have the following questions:

 1. Do you have experience with mri_cvs_register and --asegfname  Option 
 different from aseg? Does it impact the processing time? Are there options, 
 which have to be adopted?

I only minimally experimented with this option, alowing users to use 
segmentation files that are edited or modified from the default version. 
processing time and registration options might change with a new file, but 
that will depend on thenature of the new file that you want to use. I 
belive that if you use either of the files that you mentioned above 
neither of those will (need to) change.

 2. Since I think it is better to use aseg instead of wmparc, since it 
 contains fewer IDs and registration will not be overfitted, is there a 
 convenient way to generate a new aseg.mgz, which includes manual corrections 
 like pial edits?

If you make manual edits to the aseg.mgz file you can always save it under 
a different name and use the --asegfname option to indictae the new input 
to mri_cvs_register. For manual editing we recommend using Freeview and on 
the below page you may find useful advice
http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/FreeviewGuide/FreeviewWorkingWithData/FreeviewSegmentations

 3. The last question regards the norm.mgz ... since it also often contains to 
 much (outer brain) volume .. would it be better to mask norm.mgz with (e.g.) 
 wmparc or a dilated version of wmparc before using it with mri_cvs_register ?

That never caused a problem for me, and the answer in your case will 
depend on the amount of error that exists in your datasets. If you 
do decide to use a mask though, you should do that consistently on all 
of your data sets.

Let me know if you have any further questions.

the LINE SEARCH messages can be ignored, but not the watershed one. The

2013-03-14 Thread Matt Glasser
She wants to go from Caret to FreeSurfer, rather than from FreeSurfer to
Caret, which is what I do.

Kara, I believe we are meeting tomorrow to discuss the options for this?

I don't know anything about the FreeSurfer longitudinal pipeline, but it
would take going through the pipeline and finding all of the inputs needed
and converting them or generating them.  I think the main goal here is to
use the longitudinal surface registration.

Matt.

Hi Kara

I think the answer is yes as there are people at Wash U that do this
routinely. Maybe Matt Glasser or someone else can chime in?

cheers

 I am new to Freesurfer, and I am trying to input/process preterm infant
 brain data (ultimately attempting longitudinal registration). I already
have
 surfaces generated from Caret, as well as the original T1/T2 images.  My
 question is: Does anything exist to take processed data from Caret into
 Freesurfer?  If not, is there a good way to process the T1/T2 images in
 Freesurfer despite the differences in contrast and intensity (and
anatomy)? 
 
 Thank you in advance for your advice,
 Kara
