External Email - Use Caution Hi Matt,
Many thanks for your prompt reply, you are right. Any tips on how I could do that? Should I regress out cortical thickness from my myelin maps at the individual level, save the individual output myelin maps and run analyses on the latter? If yes how? That’s really important to me otherwise a reviewer could claim the myelin differences we detect might be supported by cortical thickness variations and not myelin… Thank you and best, Damien > Glasser, Matthew > <https://www.mail-archive.com/search?l=freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu&q=from:%22Glasser%2C+Matthew%22> > Mon, 22 Oct 2018 12:57:43 -0700 > <https://www.mail-archive.com/search?l=freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu&q=date:20181022> > > Regression would be better than division. > Matt. > > From: > <freesurfer-boun...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu > <http://nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/><mailto:freesurfer-boun...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu > <mailto:freesurfer-boun...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu>>> > on behalf of Damien MARIE <damien.ma <http://damien.ma/>...@unige.ch > <http://unige.ch/><mailto:damien.ma...@unige.ch > <mailto:damien.ma...@unige.ch>>> > Reply-To: Freesurfer support list > <freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu > <mailto:freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu><mailto:freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu > <mailto:freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu>>> > Date: Monday, October 22, 2018 at 8:54 AM > To: "freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu > <mailto:freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu><mailto:freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu > <mailto:freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu>>" > <freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu > <mailto:freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu><mailto:freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu > <mailto:freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu>>> > Subject: [Freesurfer] Myelinated cortical thickness ratio map > > > External Email - Use Caution > > Dear experts, > > I am working with R1 maps that I project on the surface.
