Thanks Martin for your reply, I am agree with you on point 1. What would you say in the case that we are interested in rates of decline from baseline to 12 months, but besides 6 months follow-up we also have 24 months?. Here I see more conceptual problems. In an hypothetical context of severe

Hi Daniel, I'd also include 24 month into both the processing and analysis. It is not really that we are trying to improve a registration here. We are trying to improve segmentation and surface placement of each time point. I'd aways use all data, except there are good reasons to drop (eg strong

Hi Janosch there should be some corrected subjects in the tutorial. The white matter surface shouldn follow the perceived boundary, although it may look wrong when it is when it is curving sharply out of plane. I don't have much experience with MDEFT, so I can't comment on the parameters

Given the different time distances, the best would be mixed effects models. The 2 stage model should also work as it incorporates time (but not different correlations according to time distance). Again I don't see what you are analyzing with only one group. There will always be thinning, and

Hi Elisa it's tough to tell from just the wm.mgz image. Are the voxels excluded from the pial brain or are they dura? What does the orig surface show? If the orig doesn't follow the wm.mgz and you think it should, that means there is a topological defect that was inaccurately corrected and
