[Freesurfer] Problems running Monte Carlo Simulations

Hi all, I'm trying to run Monte Carlo simulations on cortical thickness data I got using mri_glmfit, but I'm running into some errors. 1) I used the command mri_glmfit-sim --glmdir lh.thickness.fwhm20.diagnosis_scanner.dods.glmdir/ --cache 2.0 pos The error I receive says cannot find

[Freesurfer] Subcutaneous fat and intensity normalisation

2014-04-11 Thread N. Medic
Dear FreeSurfers, I have a question concerning pctsurfcon and subcutaneous fat. The first step in the Freesurfer processing pipeline is intensity normalisation, which assumes that high intensity signal is due to white matter and uses this as a reference point. However this happens prior to

Hi Nenad we actually do the intensity normalization mutliple times, the final one on the skull stripped images. We do try to distinguish even if the skull is in the image using connectivity constraints. cheers Bruce On Fri, 11 Apr 2014, N. Medic wrote: Dear FreeSurfers, I have a question

Good to hear. That was just a naming convention to keep track of how each version was generated. To continue, all you need to do is rename the good brainmask (generated with the modified gcuts command) to brainmask.mgz. -Louis On Fri, 11 Apr 2014, Markus Gschwind wrote: Thanks Louis!
