Hi Alex,

the -pvol flag assumes ever border voxel is a linear combination of the class that it is labeled as and another class that it borders. The local class means are computed by as the sample mean in a local window of all non border voxels of that class.

The mac and linux version should be compatible, as long as you make sure they are the same version of the software.

cheers,
Bruce

Hi,
Just had a couple of questions re: the -pvvol flag in mri_segstats:
How does it take account of partial voluming?
Is there anyway to visualize what the partial volume-corrected volume would 
look like?
Would you recmmoned using this falg routinely to obtain  subcortical volumes?

Finally, on a completely unrelated question, is there any reason to think that 
surfaces created using the same freesurfer distribution on a Mac would be 
incompatible with those created using a Linux machine (ie., would you be able 
to pool them for one study without any problems, and could you start creating 
surfaces on one, and then re-run afdter manual edits on the other?)

Thanks,
Alex

You should be able to use mri_segstats somehow. You'll need a
segmentation, though. You could tell it to report
on the aseg wm values. You could also use the fill volume (127 and
255?). Check out the --help

should be easy enough to do in matlab. Just load the wm volume, then find all
the T1 voxels that are nonzero in it.

Is it possible to obtain and intensity histogram of the wm voxels, or
descriptive stats (eg., Mean, SD) as a quick check?

if it succeeds then the intensity in the wm should be exactly 110 over
much of the brain, and 90<wm<120 pretty much everywhere

Hi

What is a typical example of when the intensity normalization process
fails?
Does the over-all image seem brighter?  What is a good indicator of
success
or failure?

Thanks,
Tracy
