Re: [Freesurfer] problem when convert dcm to mgz

2012-07-30 Thread Liu Yawu
Hi Bruce,
The dcm files are from SIMENS MAGNETOM VISION plus. The file does exist. Myriam 
Siefert met same problem. She suggested me to convert the dcm to nii file. 
Because Freesurfer cannot read header of the some dcm files. After converting 
to nii, it seems working now. The analysis is running now.
Regards,
Yawu

Hi Yawu

where did you get that dicom from? Does the file you are pointing to
exist?

 The monitoring script that bedpostx runs and tells you if things have or
 haven't finished properly can't always be trusted. So if that's the only
 error message you see, I wouldn't worry about it. Have the *ph1* and *th1*
 files appeared this time?


 On Fri, 27 Jul 2012, Sergio Medina wrote:

 :P

 I ran bedpostx_postproc and I've got so many errors that makes me think
 the
 problem is before this step (see output in attached
 n1-bedpostx-postproc.txt).

 So, I ran again bedpostx on the dmri directory, which the first run
 *seemed*
 to finish and didn't throw any error (I attached the output in the first
 email).
 This run did finish, and it did throw errors (full output in
 n2-bedpostx-dmri.txt):

 [...]

 wc: /volatile/tracula/results/**Diff001/dmri.bedpostX/**commands.txt: No

 Queuing post processing stage
 64 slices processed
 For some reason the bedpostX process DOES NOT appear
 to have successfully completed. Please examine your
 results carefully.
 kill: 276: No such process

 Then I started wondering whether I do have the right data to actually run
 bedpostx, so I run the script that checks that: bedpostx_datacheck, the
 output (n3-bedpostx-datacheck.txt) doesn't show any signs of errors so I
 would like to assume everything is ok with the input data...

 Any idea?

 Thanks, once again.

 Sergio.

   Hi Sergio - As with any imminent new version release, it's
   happening soon. I'd say in a month, I'm just not sure a month
   from when :P

   The fact that the temporary files (everything with *slice* in
   the name) are still in your bedpostx directory means that
   bedpostx didn't finish running properly. You can try running the
   last step of bedpostx and see if you get any error messages that
   give you any clues:
   bedpostx_postproc.sh
   /volatile/tracula/results/**Diff001/dmri

   Normally this step merges the individual slices into volumes and
   deletes the temporary files. If all else fails, I'd ask the FSL
   gurus.

   Hope this helps,
   a.y

   Hi Sergio - Thank you for your kind words, and

   The first problems you had with running
 bedpostx through
   trac-all have to do with trac-all assuming an
 older version of
   FSL than the current one, and this'll be fixed
 in the upcoming
   release of trac-all. Indeed the thing to do in
 the meantime is
   to run bedpostx by itself, as you did. I
 apologize for the
   inconvenience.


 Great! By any chance, do you know when that release
 will happen?


   About the problem you had when you ran
 bedpostx directly: do you
   get the other outputs of bedpostx, listed
 here? Are there any
   other, temporary files left over as well?

 
 http://www.fmrib.ox.ac.uk/fsl/**fdt/fdt_bedpostx.htmlhttp://www.fmrib.ox.ac.uk/fsl/fdt/fdt_bedpostx.html



 I have all of them, except for nodif_brain. And I
 only have the ones with
 i=2 while I should have the ones with i=1 too.
 Attached you can find two files, the output of ls
 -Rah on both dmri and
 dmri.bedpostX directories.




   The merged_ph?samples are the orientation
 angles of the each of
   the two anisotropic compartments (sticks,
 fibers, whatever
   you want to call them) that bedpostx fit in
 each voxel. So 1
   is the orientation angle of the largest
 stick/fiber, and 2 the
   one of the 2nd largest. If there's a 2,
 there should be a 1!


 But there are not :(

 I then ran recon-all -s subject_no -qcache ready for doing a group

 Are you able to advise me on what I can try now?  Do I need to go back a

2012-07-30 Thread Douglas N Greve
Hi Jeni, you should not smooth with both. If you want to smooth within a 
given label with surf2surf, pass that label to surf2surf then don't 
smooth with glmfit.

 Hi Doug,

 When you say If you smooth using surf2surf, then do not smooth using 
 glmfit... are you referring to smoothing the whole hemisphere, or 
 with a label? In other words, if I had asked surf2surf  to smooth only 
 inside a label, then no need to smooth again in glmfit. But if I did a 
 smoothing of 10mm in surf2surf on the entire hemisphere instead (i.e. 
 without --label option in surf2surf), then I will need to do 
 smoothing in glmfit. Did I get it right?

 By the way, thank you for replying- on midnight Sunday! (unless you

 Hi Jeni, usually you smooth with surf2surf and include a mask or

 mask. If you smooth using surf2surf, then do not smooth using glmfit.

Hi Susan, if you are not doing a thickness study, then I don't think it 
will matter much if you have 1 or 2 or 3 T1s. There's not an easy way to 
compare the recons. You can do a paired difference using 1 T1 vs mult 
T1s. That will mostly give you bias information, not accuracy or 
repeatability.

 Hi Freesurfer experts,

 We’ve been collecting structural (1mm isotropic) and functional

 are reconstructing each subject’s surface and mapping functional data 
 processed in FSL’s FEAT to the surface. For some subjects, we have only 1 
 MPRAGE, but for others, we have multiple (2 or 3) MPRAGEs, acquired in 
 separate scanning sessions.

 Looking back at the list serve and FSLwiki 
 (http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/FsQuizAnswers), it appears that our 
 SNR should be good enough that we do not need -- and perhaps SHOULD NOT use 
 --multiple MPRAGEs when using recon-all. Is there general agreement on this?

 How does one go about quantitatively comparing one surface reconstruction 
 derived from 1 MPRAGE to another derived from 2 MPRAGEs?

 Hello,

 I have run several scans using recon-all -all -subjid subject_no -expert
 expert.opts where my expert.opts file changes the parameters for the
 mri_normalize step (this works well in my scans).  I then had to edit a few
 of the scans by adding in more white matter and a few control points.  I
 re-ran them to incorporate the edits using recon-all -s subject_no -make all
 -xopts-use.  This worked well.

 I then ran recon-all -s subject_no -qcache ready for doing a group
 analysis.  I got an error reading the curvature file in those subjects I had
 edited.  I can see from the mailing list that others have had this error
 previously and ran recon-all -s subject_no -make all to fix it.  I tried
 this, but I got a message saying that there was nothing to be done for all.

 Are you able to advise me on what I can try now?  Do I need to go back a

Re: [Freesurfer] problem when convert dcm to mgz

glad to hear it, but I'm surprised that there are dicoms that we can't 
read. Maybe it's just an old variant of the format?


good luck

Hi Bruce,
The dcm files are from SIMENS MAGNETOM VISION plus. The file does exist. Myriam

Because Freesurfer cannot read header of the some dcm files. After converting 
to nii, it seems working now. The analysis is running now.

[Freesurfer] Non rigid registration

2012-07-30 Thread SHAHIN NASR
Hi,

  In our functional MRI studies, we co-registration the functional
images to anatomical scans (a part of preproc-sess routine in version 5)
before measuring the contrasts. But for one of our studies, a reviewer has
asked if a “non-rigid image registration” would change results when we are
assessing activity within artifact-prone brain areas (e.g. anterior
temporal areas).

  As far as I know, freesurfer registration works fine and even in this
study, we have found very strong activity/contrast within anterior tempotal
lobe.  But I was wondering whether you have tested this possibility or not.
If yes, then I appreciate if you can introduce me a reference (published
article) to support our answer.

Regards

Re: [Freesurfer] Non rigid registration

2012-07-30 Thread Douglas N Greve

It depends on what the reviewer is concerned about. You don't want to 
use a fully non-rigid registration because the drop out will look like 
the edge of the brain, and the non-rigid will warp it incorrectly. If 
he/she is talking about using something more constrained like B0 
correction, then it is possible that some things could change. In 
general, where you have B0 distortion you also have dropout, so 
correcting for B0 distortion often has a very small effect (no ref on 
that unfortunately).

Re: [Freesurfer] Error with recon-all import step. ERROR: the pixel data cannot be loaded as it is JPEG compressed.

2012-07-30 Thread Douglas N Greve
it looks like someone accidentally turn on jpeg compression on the 
console. Our converter does not read jpeg. You can use dcmdjpeg from the 
dcmtk toolkit to create new dicoms that are uncompressed, something like

dcmdjpeg +te old.dcm new.dcm

Re: [Freesurfer] Issues with Tracula

2012-07-30 Thread Anastasia Yendiki


Hi Sergio - Sorry, if this occurs independently of trac-all, whenever you 
run bedpostx directly, you're better off asking for help on the FSL list. 
We've never run into this problem with bedpostx up till now.

2012/7/27 Anastasia Yendiki ayend...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu

  The monitoring script that bedpostx runs and tells you if things
  have or haven't finished properly can't always be trusted. So if
  that's the only error message you see, I wouldn't worry about
  it. Have the *ph1* and *th1* files appeared this time?

  On Fri, 27 Jul 2012, Sergio Medina wrote:

What a coincide! Our teams have both chosen the same
release cycle strategy
:P

I ran bedpostx_postproc and I've got so many errors
that makes me think the
problem is before this step (see output in attached
n1-bedpostx-postproc.txt).

So, I ran again bedpostx on the dmri directory,
which the first run *seemed*
to finish and didn't throw any error (I attached the
output in the first
email).
This run did finish, and it did throw errors (full
output in
n2-bedpostx-dmri.txt):

[...]

wc:
/volatile/tracula/results/Diff001/dmri.bedpostX/commands.txt:

For some reason the bedpostX process DOES NOT appear
to have successfully completed. Please examine your
results carefully.
kill: 276: No such process

Then I started wondering whether I do have the right
data to actually run
bedpostx, so I run the script that checks that:
bedpostx_datacheck, the
output (n3-bedpostx-datacheck.txt) doesn't show any
signs of errors so I
would like to assume everything is ok with the input
data...

Any idea?

Thanks, once again.

Sergio.

      Hi Sergio - As with any imminent new version
release, it's
      happening soon. I'd say in a month, I'm just
not sure a month
      from when :P

      The fact that the temporary files (everything
with *slice* in
      the name) are still in your bedpostx directory
means that
      bedpostx didn't finish running properly. You
can try running the
      last step of bedpostx and see if you get any
error messages that
      give you any clues:
              bedpostx_postproc.sh
      /volatile/tracula/results/Diff001/dmri

      Normally this step merges the individual
slices into volumes and
      deletes the temporary files. If all else
fails, I'd ask the FSL
      gurus.

      Hope this helps,
      a.y

                  The first problems you had with
running
            bedpostx through
                  trac-all have to do with trac-all
assuming an
            older version of
                  FSL than the current one, and
this'll be fixed
            in the upcoming
                  release of trac-all. Indeed the
thing to do in
            the meantime is
                  to run bedpostx by itself, as you
did. I
            apologize for the
                  inconvenience.


            Great! By any chance, do you know when
that release
            will happen?
             

                  About the problem you had when you
ran
            bedpostx directly: do you

listed

 mri_segstats --seg /Applications/freesurfer/**subjects/bert/mri/aseg.mgz
 --sum
 /Applications/freesurfer/**subjects/bert/stats/aseg.stats --pv
 mri/norm.mgz
 --empty --excludeid 0 --excl-ctxgmwm --supratent --subcortgray --in
 mri/norm.mgz --in-intensity-name norm --etiv --surf-wm-vol --surf-ctx-vol
 --totalgray --ctab $FREESURFER_HOME/**FreeSurferColorLUT.txt --subject
 bert
 --brainmask mri/brainmask.mgz --brain-vol-from-seg

 I get the error that SUBJECTS_DIR not defined in environment. My code
 has
 been edited to not even use this variable and yet the issue stills
 stands.
 Please advise on how to circumvent this error.

 Ever thankful,
   Matthew Goldfinger
