Hi Keith,

your longitudinal qdec file looks OK. Something must have gone wrong before (in the processing, e.g. maybe the base was reprocessed and the longs were not updated or things were renamed?)

I would create a new directory with only this subject, then start from scratch. create both cross (kp5 and kp5b), the base (kp5_base) and both longs with the correct naming . Then check if the long_mris_slopes command still fails.

Best, Martin

Dear Freesurfer experts,

I have a dataset of 2 time points. I ran into problems when I tried to use the two-stage approach to pull out statistics such as the rate of change in Freesurfer 5.1.

I could not even get the first stage working. The error messages I got were "ERROR: MRISar1: Surf/Src dimension mismatch" "ERROR -11 : mri_glmfit did not work?"

I did further trouble-shooting for this particular message "nv1 = 140942, nv1 = 143525", and I found out that "143525" was in the "base" folder (kp5_base), and "140942" was for the two longitudinally registered images (kp5.long.kp5_base, and kp5b.long.kp5_base).

The command line I used was : "long_mris_slopes --qdec ./qdec/AS_long_qdec.dat --meas thickness --hemi lh --do-avg --do-rate --do-pc1 --do-spc --do-stack --do-label --time weeks --nosmooth".

The first three lines in the qdec file:

"fsid fsid-base weeks age sex FSS avgPain

kp5 kp5_base 0 48 0 4.1 7

kp5b kp5_base 20 48 0 8.6 6"

This error was similar to what was in a previous post (https://mail.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/pipermail/freesurfer/2012-June/024576.html by joost janssen Jun 29, 2012). I tried to fix any similar problems, but still wasn't able to get it working.

What else could I have been doing wrong?

The on screen error output is provided as follows

Many thanks
