Re: [Freesurfer] Analysis question

2008-01-09 Thread Bruce Fischl

Hi Corey,

you can try smoothing the individual data, but of course you won't have 
the power that you have in a group study (which is why you do the group 
study in the first place).


cheers,

Hi,

  I have a quick and hopefully simple question.  The picture on the left
is an individual fmri mean functional display.  To get it I used

Tksurfer-sess -hemi rh -aparc -s PROZ06004 -analysis simple_v_complex -c
simple_v_complex while in /space/multnomah/3/users/gow/PROZ06/fMRI

The picture is splotchy whereas the second picture which is the average
of all subjects for this same analysis and contrast is smooth and cleaner.
In order to display the averaged data I used

Tksurfer fsaverage rh inflated -annot aparc -overlay
group-analysis/simple_v_complex/rh.meanfunc.nii -fthresh 2 while in the
same directory


I'm trying to get the individual subjects to look like the smooth averaged
output.  Can you help me with this?  Thanks so much.


  Best,
  Corey

[Freesurfer] Gray Matter Mask - twist on previous post

2008-01-09 Thread Emily Trittschuh
Dear Group,
 
Back in April, Anil Roy posted a question about methods to generate a gray
matter mask that can be fed into AFNI . . . I'm wondering if the opposite
can be done? Can a functional mask made in AFNI be fed easily into
Freesurfer?  Currently this mask is saved as a NIFTI dataset.
 
Thank you.
Emily

Hi Emily,

is it a volume or surface functional map? If volume, I think it should be 
pretty straightforward to sample it onto the surface with mri_vol2surf 
then go from there. There is probably a way to do this in SUMA also.


cheers,
Bruce

[Freesurfer] segmentation of brain of age 8-13

2008-01-09 Thread BumSeok Jeong
Dear freesurfer experts,
I got uncorrected segmentation results, especially occipital cortex, from
brain of age 8-13.
I found similar problem in adult brain in freesurfer mailing list and the
resolving answer like below.
use the control points with the mri_ca_normalize flag as part of the aseg.
I've not used the command much, but you should be able to add the flag '-f
tmp/control.dat' to the normal mri_ca_normalize command to run this step

Do I have to do any procedure for brain of age 8-13 in addition to
suggestion like above?

Thanks,

bsjeong

Hi,

we don't in general use the aseg.mgz for cortical stuff, so if it look 
inaccurate, but the ?h.white and ?h.pial surfaces look accurate then I 
wouldn't worry about it. It's hard to diagnoe without any images though.

Bruce
