Re: [Freesurfer] Strange Discrepancy Between Activation Location on Surface vs. Volume

2017-07-05 Thread Douglas Greve
So, it looks ok in the volume (using tkmedit) but not on the surface 
(using tksurfer)? Something is definitely weird. The only thing I can 
think of is that the surface is not the surface of the subject you think 
it is. What is your tksurfer command line? What is the subject name in 
the contents of the registration file?

Hello,

I am running into an odd issue. In particular, I have run a GLM 
analysis in _volume_ space, and I am visualizing the results both on 
the surface using tksurfer, and on the volume using tkmedit. In both 
cases, I am using the register.dof6.dat file to do the registration. 
Oddly, when I visualize the results on the _surface_, the activation 
patch falls on the medial surface of the hemisphere, in the 
_precuneus_, whereas when I visualize the results on the _volume_, the 
patch is in the _intraparietal sulcus_ (which is where we expect to 
see this particular activation). I have made a label out of the 
activation in both cases and viewed it in the other space just to make 
sure that it is in fact the same activation, and it is. Any idea what 
might be going on? It seems to me that it can't be an issue with the 
BOLD volume --> structural volume registration, since the activations 
look normal on tkmedit. It seems to me, then, that it must have to do 
with the relationship between the anatomical volume and the anatomical 
surface--could this be where the problem lies? Maybe an imperfect 
surface reconstruction?


I've attached pictures of what I mean. The activation in question is 
in the right hemisphere. On the surface it can be seen on the medial 
part of the hemisphere , and in the volume it's where the red cursor 
is (as I mentioned, I verified by making labels that these are in fact 
the same activation).


Thank you very much,

JohnMark

[Freesurfer] Strange Discrepancy Between Activation Location on Surface vs. Volume

Hello,

I am running into an odd issue. In particular, I have run a GLM analysis in
*volume* space, and I am visualizing the results both on the surface using
tksurfer, and on the volume using tkmedit. In both cases, I am using the
register.dof6.dat file to do the registration. Oddly, when I visualize the
results on the *surface*, the activation patch falls on the medial surface
of the hemisphere, in the *precuneus*, whereas when I visualize the results
on the *volume*, the patch is in the *intraparietal sulcus* (which is where
we expect to see this particular activation). I have made a label out of
the activation in both cases and viewed it in the other space just to make
sure that it is in fact the same activation, and it is. Any idea what might
