[Freesurfer] erroneous ICV volume ?...

2011-04-08 Thread Gonzalo Rojas Costa
Hi: I have an MRI of a 34 years old patient that have a brain atrophy, but with freesurefer I got an ICV of 1120 cc that is near the normal size for her age... I review the talairach transform, but I think it is ok... What could be the problem ?... Could I upload the MRI volume ?...

Freesurfer's estimate of ICV (eTIV) is designed to be insensitive to brain atrophy -- after all, it is an estimate of intracranial volume, not brain volume. See the Buckner et al. (2004) paper for a validation of this. cheers, -MH On Fri, 2011-04-08 at 17:04 -0500, Gonzalo Rojas Costa wrote:
