Hi professor Bruce!
I got finally the segmentation of the hippocampus I was looking for.
Thought I have one more question I hope ypou could answer:
By using :
kvlQuantifyPosteriorProbabilityImages
$FREESURFER_HOME/data/GEMS/compressionLookupTable.txt \
?   posterior_right_* posterior_Right-Hippocampus.mgz

I got the the fallowing answer:
right_CA1: 2499.75
right_CA2_3: 7372.95
right_CA4_DG: 4296.22
right_fimbria: 665.066
right_hippocampal_fissure: 390.295
right_presubiculum: 3844.54
right_subiculum: 4969.41
Right-Hippocampus: 2709.7

I supposed the the total hippocampal quantification was done by summing
those up and multiplying it by 0,5^3 . But what is the last subfield (the
one by the name Right_Hippocampus)? Should I include it in the sum or is it
already the final Right hippocampus in mm3?

Once again thank you so much for all your help!

Best regards; Cecilio.

 Hi Cecilio

 all our measures are in native space and not corrected for head size. The
 estimated total intracranial volume (etiv) is what we typically use for
 correction, and it should be in the aseg.stats file. In general I think it
 is preferable to use it as a regressor rather than divide, but perhaps
 someone can comment on this. We also segment the whole hippocampus, and
 which one you use is up to you (you could add up all the subfield volumes,
 but you won't get the same volume as the hippocampus from the aseg as the
 definitions are a bit different as are the algorithms).

Thank you so much for quick answer. Well telling from your response it

 Hi again,
 - Yes, if you want the whole hippocampal volumes, you can just add all the
 substructures.
 - If you compare such volumes with those from aseg.stats, you'll see that
 they are 10%-15% smaller, but very highly correlated. We have observed that
 the addition of the 5.3 subfields is a tiny bit better when it comes to
 separating AD from controls based solely on hippocampal volume, though.

 p.s. for the tcsh bug you should just get your sysadmin to update the
 version of tcsh you are using.

  Dear professor Bruce!

 Sorry for bothering again, well I did exatly as you told before in order
 to
 process different subject at the same time:

 recon-all -s Pat1 -i Pat2 -i Pat3 -i Pat5 -all

 there Pat 1 (and the rest) are subjid. thought I got this error message:

 ARNING: tcsh v6.17.06 has an exit code bug! Please update tcsh!

 ERROR: cannot find Pat2

 recon-all -s Pat1 exited with ERRORS at Thu Apr 30 22:17:19 CST 2015

 For more details, see the log file
 To report a problem, see

 Could that be an bug in the program?

 Once again! Thank you for your help!

   sorry Cecilio, it is pretty compute intensive. If you have
   multiple cores you can use -openmp to speed things up a
   bit, or just run more than one recon-all at a time. Note
   that you don't need to invoke it twice - just run:

   recon-all -s - -i --- -all

 Dear professor Bruce!

 Thank you so much for your help, it help me a
 lot! I have a silly question,
 sorry for that, I'm using the Freesurfer to
 extract the hippocampal volume
 of two different groups. Right using this two
 commands:

 recon-all -s - -i  followed byrecon-all
 -s --all

 Is taking like a day of processing for just
 one patient. Is there any faster
 way as I'm only interested on the hippocampal
 volume?

 Once again thank you for your help!

   Hi Cecilio

   what do you mean 224 scans? I assume
 you mean 224 slices in
   each scan? And do you have two different
 runs of the same scan
   type (e.g. mprage) for each subject? You
 can try:

   mri_info
 /home/cecilio/Desktop/freesurfer/Test/Pat1/81334010

   and

   freeview
 /home/cecilio/Desktop/freesurfer/Test/Pat1/81334010

   to find out the scan parameters and also
 visualize it.

 Well my data is T1 dicom

 Though as I'm using

 Please correct me if I'm

 My error becomes:
 #@# Talairach Failure Detection Сб. апр. 25 18:25:07 CST 2015

 recon-all -s Patient1 exited with ERRORS at Сб. апр. 25 18:25:32 CST 2015

 Besides if I try to use the tkmedit I get this following:
   Tkmedit couldn't read the volume you specified.
   This could be because the image format wasn't recognized,
   or it couldn't find the proper header,
   or the file(s) were unreadable,
   or it was the wrong size.


 Please do you possibly know how to go around this problem.

 Thank you in advance!

   Hi Cecilio

   this means that the automatic checking determined that the
   Talairach transform to be very unlikely and probably a failure.
   What was your input data? If you bring it up in tkmedit or
   freeview do the directions on the screen correspond to true
   anatomical ones (e.g. is A really anterior)?
