Re: [Freesurfer] How to avoid overlaps between volume labels?
Hi Yuko I think you can use multiple label tags when using mri_label2vol like below: mri_label2vol --subject $subject_name --hemi $hemi --label $label1 --label $label2 --label $label3 --temp $template --o $output --fillthresh 0.3 --proj frac 0 1 0.1 --identity The output volume would have non-zero voxels, marked with three different values.

Re: [Freesurfer] [FREESURFER] atlas applicability. (fwd)
Dear Lilla I appreciate your answers. It was very helpful. Just another follow-up question. I think freesurfer itself ended without errors and the skull-stripped and surfaces look okay. I think in the recommended reconstruction Pipeline, check segmentation is related to checking atlas worked. Still, I wonder there is a gold standard to check the atlas (Deksian atlas) works okay. .

The lower bound, in our experience, is about 4-5 yrs. Of course, it depends on your data quality but we had success all the way down to that age. I am not aware of any upper limits. Again, if you are processing these kind of extreme populations, make sure that you inspect the outcome of the FS recon pipeline carefully before proceeding with any type of analysis.

[Freesurfer] [FREESURFER] atlas applicability.

Re: [Freesurfer] Freesurfer for stroke subjects?
Hi Bruce. Thanks for your answer. What should I do for a larger one like removal of almost all of temporal lobe or prefrontal cortex. Modifying wm.mgz is not enough? Best, Han.
