Dear all, I notice that there is a file called wmparc_stats.txt http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/FsTutorial/AnatomicalROI#Tableofwhitematterparcellationvolumes Is it possible to get corresponding WM info for a given label? Best, Daniel -- Daniel (Yung-Jui) Yang, Ph.D. Postdoctoral

That is the jacobian of the white matter surface when it is registered to fsaverage (not related to the actual white matter). On 03/02/2014 08:40 PM, Yang, Daniel wrote: Hi FreeSurfers, A related question (I can't find the answers on the FS website): what's jacobian_white (as a measure)?

Thanks, Doug! But that is about using wmparc.stats as IV or continuous/covariate variables. I would like to use WM vol as the DV (measure). -- Daniel (Yung-Jui) Yang, Ph.D. Postdoctoral Researcher Yale Child Study Center New Haven, CT Tel: (203) 737-5454 E-mail: yung-jui.y...@yale.edu On 3/3/14

Hi Doug, I am able to find wmparc.stats in stats. It shows WM vol based on pre-defined ROIs. However, do you know how can we generate corresponding WM vol for a given label (not the D-K ROIs)? I'd like to use WM vol as DV but are limited to pre-defined ROIs. Best, Daniel -- Daniel

I don't understand. What label do you have? Do you mean a WM label or a cortical label that you want to find the WM under? On 03/03/2014 02:12 PM, Yang, Daniel wrote: Hi Doug, I am able to find wmparc.stats in stats. It shows WM vol based on pre-defined ROIs. However, do you know how can

Sorry, I wasn't clear. It's a cortical label that I manually created, based on the pial surface. Is it possible to generate the corresponding WM vol based on a new label (not pre-defined)? -- Daniel (Yung-Jui) Yang, Ph.D. Postdoctoral Researcher Yale Child Study Center New Haven, CT Tel:

yes, but not easily. You will have to create an annotation with your new label in it (and any other label for the other parts of cortex) (probably using mris_label2annot), then run mri_aparc2aseg to generate a new wmparc-style volume, then run mri_segstats. You can look in the recon-all.log

Sounds like a lot of work, but thanks for your reply. By the way, the wm vol generated this way is 5mm from white surface into the center of the brain, correct? Thus, it is not necessarily the complete WM vol underneath the label? Daniel -- Daniel (Yung-Jui) Yang, Ph.D. Postdoctoral

Dear FreeSurfer Experts, FS provides thickness as the DV in qdec and mri-glmfit. Do you know how I can have WM vol as the DV in these tools with the same GLM model? For example, I want to test the WM regions that is most strongly positively correlated with a given factor. Thanks! Daniel
