regions, but not that measure of mean thickness for the hemisphere. Could I be missing something? thanks Daniel Message: 15 Date: Tue, 30 Oct 2012 11:17:56 -0400 From: Douglas N Greve gr...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu mailto:gr...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu Subject: Re: [Freesurfer] average measure

[Freesurfer] average measure of cortical thickness

2012-10-30 Thread Daniel Ferreira
Hi, I was wondering what should I use as an average of cortical thickness for the whole cortex. The aparc.stats output gives a value of Mean Thickness for each hemisphere. But this value does not coincide with the one I get if I average the 34 variables from aparc.stats. Do you know why? thanks

Hi Daniel the parcellations are not uniform in size, and therefore the average of them will not be the same as averaging over the cortex. cheers Bruce On Tue, 30 Oct 2012, Daniel Ferreira wrote: Hi, I was wondering what should I use as an average of cortical thickness for the whole

Please, is there any automatic way to extract this Mean Thickness values for lh and rh for a big group of subjects? As for example aparcstats2table? thank you very much Daniel 2012/10/30 Bruce Fischl fis...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu yes, I think so Bruce On Tue, 30 Oct 2012, Daniel Ferreira

You can get thickness with aparcastats2table with the -m thickness option. This gives you a measure of mean thickness for the hemisphere as well. do8ug On 10/30/2012 11:02 AM, Daniel Ferreira wrote: Please, is there any automatic way to extract this Mean Thickness values for lh and rh for a
