[Freesurfer] calculating percent signal change
Hello, I am trying to calculate the percent signal changes for my monkey data. I did this by running the command selxavg3-sess and looking at the cespct values (or equivalently by using h.nii divided by h-offset.nii). I found in the mailing list that this value should be corrected by a scaling factor scalef if freesurfer-4.5.0 is used (see below). If I apply this correction factor I got values that at first sight look reasonable but if i calcultate the psc using JIP (the imaging program from Joe Mandeville), i find different values. And looking at the raw data I have to conclude that the value from JIP are the correct ones... For example if i look at the same voxel in MT if find: with JIP: -14.45% with FS: -8.15 % notice that the values are negative and pretty large due to the fact that we use and iron oxide contrast agent. If, instead of applying the scaling factor scalef (defined below), I apply the factor max(x.X(:,1)) as a scaling factor (which according to me is the maximum value of the convolved design matrix,or 'the EV' in FSL lingo), then I end up with a value of -15.09%. Which is pretty close to the value obtained with JIP. I got the last idea from mumford.fmripower.org/perchange_guide.pdf Do you have any clue where the differences come from? or if I am doing something wrong? Also, one of my colleagues used both the gamma model and FIR model to calculate the percent signal change (psc) for his event-related designed experiment, and the values are also quite different. He applied the scaling factor for the values from the gamma model, and didn't do it for the fir model. What he got is 0.6% signal change if he takes the peak of the time course (which looks quite ok) that fitted from the FIR model and 1.5% signal change from the gamma model. It seems that there is more than 2 times differences between these two values. Is it normal, or we need another scale factor for the fir model? Thanks for the answers! regards, Thomas Janssens ps: My selxavg3-sess analysis was done using the following parameters in the analysis.cfg file: -gammafit 0 8 -gammaexp 0.3 -timewindow 40. -prestim 0 -acfbins 10 -fix-acf -autostimdur -no-fsv3-st2fir -no-fsv3-whiten -polyfit 2 -TER .1000 -autowhiten 30 -nskip 0 -fwhm 0 -rescale 1000 -- [Freesurfer] Calculating % Signal Change from roisummary-sess readout Douglas N Greve Wed, 04 Aug 2010 14:25:52 -0700 That's right, though you may/will run into the problem of very small values in which case you can use this fix: cd bold/analysis x = load('X'); tirf = x.flac0.ev(3).tirf; Xirf = x.flac0.ev(3).Xirf; scalef = sum(Xirf .* repmat(tirf,[1 size(Xirf,2)])); scalef will be something like 184.

Re: [Freesurfer] Surface Area and Cortical Volume
perhaps an alternative is to use the surface area measure of an ROI, namely the aparc regions, to conduct a group analysis, as the vertex distribution problem is averaged-out over the region. n. On Wed, 2010-09-29 at 21:02 -0700, Don Hagler wrote: The area maps do contain the actual surface area of each vertex with units of mm^2. The problem is that the area at a given vertex depends on how many vertices a given patch of cortex was divided into, which is initially uniform but then varies arbitrarily due to topology correction, rendering it useless for making statistical maps. If you are interested in making statistical maps of between-group differences in surface area, the best way to do that is by calculating the areal expansion measure. This is not a normally used feature of freesurfer, but is possible by using make_average_subject separately for each subject. If you use the area values in the aparc stats files, those are the sum of area for all vertices in each parcellation, and they have units of surface area (unlike measures of areal expansion).

Jeff, Posting this back to the list so that others can see your reply. cheers, -MH Forwarded Message From: Jeff Sadino jsadino.que...@gmail.com To: Michael Harms mha...@conte.wustl.edu Subject: Re: [Freesurfer] Surface Area and Cortical Volume Date: Wed, 29 Sep 2010 17:29:45 -1000 Hi Michael, After reading your answer, I can see it as valid for each individual subject. If I wanted to picture the average surface area for my controls, I think the approach would break down. I would have to transform all the surface areas onto a common space subject (fsaverage), and then all of the controls would have the exact same surface area, and so would the study group for that matter. My understanding was that the surface area is a measure of how much each triangle needs to be squished or stretched in order for it to match the triangles in the common space (fsaverage), and so it is a measure of squishiness, not surface area. I may be getting my understanding of vertex-wise analysis mixed up with something else. Your insight is appreciated!

Once the surface is parcellated, the area of each surface parcellation as provided in the aparc files is simply the area represented by the triangles in the mesh of the white matter surface. If you want the area of the pial surface instead, you can generate those using the appropriate flag in mris_anatomical_stats. But they are real areas, at least at the parcellation level. (It is questionable, as I understand it, whether VERTEX-WISE analyses across groups of the area and volume files are meaningful or informative, but that is a different beast). Yes, for cortical quantification, you want to use the stuff in the aparc files, since it is based on the surface analysis stream. cheers, -MH Hello, As I understand it, the surface area measure is not a real surface area measure.
