External Email - Use Caution        

Hi, 

I am interested in the Hippocampal Subfields And Nuclei Of Amygdala module and 
have a few questions regarding its functionalities. 

Regarding the segmentation of amygdala nuclei, you say that currently, "volumes 
of the nuclei must be interpreted with caution". What does it mean exactly ? 
Can these volumes be used for comparison between patients and controls, or must 
we wait for further test ? 

I would like to create masks from this module and use these masks in functional 
connectivity analysis (Conn toolbox). Is it possible and if so, how can I do 
that ? 

You mention that the freesurfer command "recon-all" must be used before the 
segmentation of the nuclei is performed. I tried this and recon-all took about 
7 hours to compute on one subject. I plan to use this module on 150 subjects, 
so do you know if there is a way to speed up data processing ? 

Thanks in advance for your help.
