[Freesurfer] Hippocampal volume estimation

2014-01-23 Thread Tanya Verma
Hello,

I have to segment out hippocampus only and calculate its volume. Since
FreeSurfer segments out many sub-cortical structures and their respective
volumes, it takes a lot of time ( more than 10 hours ).

Is there any way to extract a particular sub-cortical structure only from
brain ( hippocampus in my case ) without taking a lot of time?

Thank you

no, sorry. The contextual information from segmenting everything helps a 
lot in improving accuracy, so there is no way to only segment a single 
structure.
