Re: [Freesurfer] mri_concat pet images into 1 template image

Hi Doug, There is a bit of movement across the 3 acquisitions. How may I align everything together before running mri_concat? 1. Run bbregister or mri_coreg to register 1 acquisition to T1 2. Use the reg file to move the remaining 2 acquisitions ? Is there a quicker way? Thank you. --  Shane

Hi Doug, I want to derive a single averaged PET volume from the three reconstructed 5 min acquisitions, expressed in detected counts. Then we will divide the counts based on the cerebellum. Following that, I want to use PetSurfer for partial volume correction and GLM comparisons. May I upload

Dear Doug, My PET data is 3 x 5 minute acquisitions. Each subject has  subject123_a.nii.gz, subject123_b.nii.gz, subject123_c.nii.gz and I am supposed to align and average them. Please advise. Thanks! --  Shane Schofield On 8 March 2017 at 22:31:06, Douglas Greve (gr...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu)

No, the template is a within subject template used for registration. If your pet data only has one frame (eg, FDG SUV), then you don't need to run mri_convert or mri_concat, just use your pet image as the template On 3/8/17 11:11 AM, Shane S wrote: Hello Freesurfer, I have 3 PET images per

Hello Freesurfer, I have 3 PET images per individual. I am learning PetSurfer based on the Greve et al., 2014 paper.  On the PetSurfer link, there are 2 methods. mri_convert pet.nii.gz —frame frameno template.nii.gz  or mri_concat pet.nii.gz --mean —0 template.nii.gz What are the differences?
