Re: [Freesurfer] major lobes
Thanks Doug! maybe I'm making this too complicated! What I want is to know which label (number) corresponds to each of the main lobes. Right now my freeSurfer_lobes.nii.gz image has lables in the range of 0-100's (which is WM if not mistaken), and then labels in the range of 1000-1035 for the left and 2000-2035 for the right hemisphere with zero labels in 1002,1008-1035 2002,2008-2035! (and these labels correspond to the GM, correct?!) I tried --ctab option by running the following command: mri_annotation2label --subject P2 --hemi lh --ctab new_ColorTable.txt --lobesStrict freeSurfer_Results/P2/label/lh.freeSurfer_lobes.annot but it's not saving anything! Could you please tell me how to properly use this option?

If you just load freeSurfer_lobes.nii.gz into tkmedit, the label names will be all messed up because you don't have the proper color table, but you should still only get 7 per hemi. To get the proper color table, run mri_annotation2label with --ctab, then merge the two ctabs you get (lh and rh).

Re: [Freesurfer] converting cortical labels into volumetric ROIs
Hi all, I would like to follow up on my question! So, I figured it's not really necessary to move the labels into their native space, since my final goal is to have the ROIs in the DTI (B0) space. So, I directly registered the nu-corrected output from freeSurfer to my B0 image, am I correct? But, I still don't know how to get the correct lobar masks! as mentioned before, I tried the following command: mri_aparc2aseg --annot freeSurfer_lobes --s P2 --o freeSurfer_Results/P2/label/freeSurfer_lobes.nii.gz But, it's not giving me lobe masks and instead it creates a very detailed segmentation, although I'm using an annoation file (freeSurfer_lobes) which was created using mri_annotation2label with the --lobesStrict option.

Re: [Freesurfer] space of T1.mgz
Hi there, Sorry, if my question is confusing. This is what I want to do, I have two groups of controls and patients and I've already run recon-all on them. I now want to know the head/body/tail volumes. What I did was: 1. used mri_binarize to get the right and left hippocampal masks from the cortical segmentation (using label numbers 17, 53) 2. used mri_convert to convert left_hippo.mgz, right_hippo.mgz and T1.mgz into .nii files. 3. use itk SNAP to manually segment the total hippocampus (the freesurfer mask) into head, body and tail. now, my questions is regarding the last step. If the individual segmentations are in the native space, I can't be sure that the landmarks I'm using for head/body/tail separation is always the same (since some of the subjects might be in an oblique space). So would you recommend that I first register the T1 and segmentations all into a common space? Also, I was wondering if the segmentation is going to effect the actual volume (since the brain is going to be stretched and transformed while doing the registration). I hope I made my question clear and I would greatly appreciate your advice.

My question is, are the T1.mgz and aseg.mgz files in the native space of the image or in the atlas space? I know the voxel size is different (1x1x1 mm) from the original voxel size (0.49x0.49x0.45), but I want to know if the original images are registered to a common atlas space or just resampled to a different voxel size. The reason I'm asking this, is because I'm doing a group study and I want to make sure all my subjects are in the same space so that the segmentation I do is accurate for all.

Re: [Freesurfer] Talairach registration
thanks Bruce :) -Mojdeh On 07/20/2012 04:27 PM, Bruce Fischl wrote: Hi Mojdeh it's really hard to say how much you should correct. In general we don't do that much. A couple of control points or a few voxels added to the wm.mgz can have a big effect if you are experienced. Mostly just see if the ?h.white and pial surface are visually accurate, and if not see if some small intervention might fix them. cheers Bruce On Fri, 20 Jul 2012, Mojdeh Zamyadi wrote: Hi Bruce, Thank's for the reply!

[Freesurfer] cortical thickness and ICA of resting state fMRI
Hi all, I was wondering if anyone knows about any articles that compare/relate cortical thickness analysis with resting state ICA results? More specifically, I'm looking for articles that study cortical thickness changes in different regions of brain and its possible relation to group clusters found using ICA analysis of resting state fMRI.
