[Freesurfer] white matter snr

2014-12-04 Thread Lars M. Rimol
Hi,

I would like to know whether it is a good idea to use the snr measure
from *wm-anat-snr
*as a covariate in lme (or glm) analyses? I find significant effects of snr
on cortical area and thickness. Am I right in thinking I should be more
cautious about interpreting findings in regions where wm snr has a
strong/significant effect on the dependent variable?

Also, if I use it in an lme model, would it be permissible to use it as a
random factor?

And finally, is there any similar snr measure for gray matter? (There is of
course a wm/gm contrast measure but it is not very thoroughly documented.)


Thank you!




yours,

  My impression is that CUDA drivers are not available for AMD FirePro
  graphics boards. Aren't they?

Sorry, I dont know the answer to that question. In regard to the next 
release of freesurfer, my guestimate would be between 1-2 months.

 I've been using for a long time my own bash script that parallelizes the

 I also tried with VMWare Fusion and a VM with CentOS 6.6, and it mapped

 reduced by about 2/3.

 Francesco,

 There are ways to speed up single subject processing time by
 parrallelizing the parts of the recon-all stream that deal with the left
 and right hemisphere so they get processed simultaneously. This would
 require a custom script and thus is a bit more complicated than a single
 call to recon-all. But I can provide you the skeleton of such a script
 if you like.

 We no longer support CUDA but it is included in the 5.3 release and
 people have reported success using it. The gpu can be used along with
 the openmp flag to further quicken processing time, but only on CentOS
 machines, as openmp is not supported on the Mac build of freesurfer
 v5.3. However, the next release of freesurfer WILL support openmp on the
 Mac side.

[Freesurfer] --pca flag on mri_glmfit

2014-12-04 Thread Thomas DeRamus
Dear Freesurfer experts,

Potentially super-noob question here, but I'm curious about the --pca flag
on mri_glmfit.  I can see that it does PCA/SVD on the dataset? in question
and saves the residuals to the glmdir specified, but I was unable to find
anything in the documentation describing what exactly it is doing. I got
sdiag.mat, stats.dat (with some rather large eigenvalues, on the order of
40k, but they might look more normal once I demean my variables), a u.mtx,
a v.mgh surface overlay, and an error log (stating MatlabRead: readHeder
returned NULL, ImageRead (/path/glmdir/pca-eres/sdiag.mat) failed. When I
loaded the v.mgh, it looked rather binarized (with red and blue colors
covering the entire cortex mask for that hemi).

May I ask how it is computing these eigenvalues? What the sdiag and u.mtx
files are used for? And what is being displayed in the v.mgh (is it
components? if so, what do these components reflect?).  And most
importantly, is this meant primarily for functional data or can it be
applied to mophometric data? If it can be used for the latter, what is
being fed into the PCA/SVD to determine spatial components?

[Freesurfer] Some questions about fsaverage

2014-12-04 Thread Alexandre Routier
Hello,

I am currently working with cortical thickness and more particularly with
the fsaverage. Since the thickness has the same number of voxel, I would
like to correspond the voxels with some ROI, for instance the Desikan-Killiany
Atlas https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/CorticalParcellation or
the Brodmann area
http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/BrodmannAreaMaps.

Are they any label or text files which correspond a ROI with the indices of
the voxels in fsaverage ?

Thanks in advance for you help,
Alexandre

you can use mri_annotation2label to convert each annotation into a

Re: [Freesurfer] --pca flag on mri_glmfit

2014-12-04 Thread Douglas N Greve

It performs pca/svd on the residuals. The sdiag.mat I think includes the 
singular values but also the percent variance explained by each 
component and the cumulative explained by all components upto and 
including that component. You probably just need to change the overlay 
thresholds on the v.mgh to make it look more reasonable. The range of 
the singular values depends on your data so you can't just look at them 
and decide they are too big. The u.mtx are the temporal components.

Re: [Freesurfer] mri_vol2surf --prodist measuring from pial surface

Thank you, Doug.

Can I just check that projdist is the same as projabs but with a different

Just in case I'm using an old/wrong version, here's the last line from the
mri_vol2surf help output:

From that help and your email I'm looking to run:

mri_vol2surf --mov input_volume \
--o $output_name \
--projdist -2 \
--interp nearest \
--surf pial \
--hemi lh

Which will give me values that are 2mm toward white matter from the pial
surface.

Thanks again for all the help!

Re: [Freesurfer] mri_vol2surf --prodist measuring from pial surface

2014-12-04 Thread Kirstie Whitaker
Sorry - if anyone's looking at this in the future, you also need
--regheader subID in the command:

mri_vol2surf --mov input_volume \
--o $output_name \
--projdist -2 \
--interp nearest \
--surf pial \
--hemi lh \
--regheader subid

 Thank you, Doug.

 Can I just check that projdist is the same as projabs but with a different
 name?

 Just in case I'm using an old/wrong version, here's the last line from the
 mri_vol2surf help output:
  $Id: mri_vol2surf.c,v 1.63 2011/03/05 01:11:14 jonp Exp $

 From that help and your email I'm looking to run:

 mri_vol2surf --mov input_volume \
 --o $output_name \
 --projdist -2 \
 --interp nearest \
 --surf pial \
 --hemi lh

 Which will give me values that are 2mm toward white matter from the pial
 surface.

 Thanks again for all the help!

  I've had a look through the help for mri_vol2surf and nothing's jumping
 out at me, is there an obvious option I'm missing?!

Re: [Freesurfer] Some questions about fsaverage

2014-12-04 Thread Bruce Fischl

Hi Alexandre

I'm not entirely sure what you are asking, but the fsaverage Brodmann 
areas and parcellations should all be stored in the directory:


$FREESURFER_HOME/subjects/fsaverage/label

cheers
Bruce

Hello,

I am currently working with cortical thickness and more particularly with
the fsaverage. Since the thickness has the same number of voxel, I would
like to correspond the voxels with some ROI, for instance the
Desikan-Killiany Atlas or the Brodmann area. 

Are they any label or text files which correspond a ROI with the indices of
the voxels in fsaverage ?

Thanks in advance for you help,
Alexandre
