[Freesurfer] fitting a priori ROI masks to freesurfer
Dear all, I have an a priori ROI mask previously created in AFNI for functional data. My hypothesis requires me to derive cortical thickness values for the same ROIs. How would I obtain the values using these ROIs from freesurfer? The mask was generated in Talairach space and are surface level ROIs. I tried using mris_anatomical_stats but it didn't seem to work (possibly because the masks weren't created using freesurfer/weren't saved in .label files). How would I proceed? I realize this is probably pretty simple but I'm new to freesurfer and really appreciate any guidance. -- Sonya Kaur Clinical Psychology Graduate Student Department of Psychology The University of Texas, Austin 1 University Station, A8000 Austin, TX 78712 SEA 4.110E sonya_k...@mail.utexas.edu ___ Freesurfer mailing list Freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu https://mail.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/mailman/listinfo/freesurfer The information in this e-mail is intended only for the person to whom it is addressed.

Re: [Freesurfer] trac-all -path error
Oh, ok. That's a known issue, it has to do with changes in the command line of the latest version of bedpostx. We've updated trac-all and it'll be working in our next release but for now you'll have to run bedpostx by itself and not through trac-all. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Re: [Freesurfer] trac-all -path error
What's in the diff_slices directory? That's a temporary directory that bedpostx creates and that gets deleted after the results get "merged". So my guess would be that bedpostx didn't finish processing.

Re: [Freesurfer] Cutting closed line for flat map
Hi Bruce, I tried opening a new tksurfer and not clicking in it except to cut this circle. Specifically, I opened the inflated surface, loaded the curvature and previously saved patch, then drew the circle (having not clicked in the window at all), finally clicking cut closed line. I still get the extra line tangential to the cut circle. I also tried opening a different subject (without a previously saved patch), drawing the anterior relaxation line, then drawing an intersecting circle and hitting cut closed line. Again, I get the additional line tangential to the circle. There does appear to be a GUI bug with respect to de-selecting cut points. If I click 5 different vertices, and then right-click, the first four go away but the fifth appears to stay. However, if I then click elsewhere the fifth point goes away and a new sixth point appears. The sixth point can be option-clicked to make it disappear, so that no cut points remain highlighted. Importantly, the tangential line has nothing to do with these six cut points (in occipital cortex, but the line still goes toward orbitofrontal PFC). --Greg Greg Burgess, Ph.D. Staff Scientist, Human Connectome Project Washington University School of Medicine Department of Anatomy and Neurobiology Email: burge...@pcg.wustl.edu On Mar 23, 2012, at 9:51 AM, Bruce Fischl wrote: > Hi Greg > > do you see this on all your datasets?

Re: [Freesurfer] Cutting closed line for flat map
Hi Greg do you see this on all your datasets? I don't think I've seen this unless it's because one forgets to right click before starting Bruce On Fri, 23 Mar 2012, Greg Burgess wrote: > Hi Bruce, > > I've been using the "Unmark Vertices" option from the edit menu, but I've > also tried right-clicking the image and it doesn't make a difference. > > I've also tried clicking things in order, deleting cut points that might be > out of order. > > I've been trying to understand the issue by starting with very small circles, > then expanding them in size or changing their location.

[Freesurfer] recon-all error
Hello all, I have been using FS5.0 and just started using 5.1. I tried running a recon with the new version with two of my subjects, and in both cases I got the same error message: IFLAG= -1 LINE SEARCH FAILED. SEE DOCUMENTATION OF ROUTINE MCSRCH ERROR RETURN OF LINE SEARCH: INFO= 3 POSSIBLE CAUSES: FUN CTION OR GRADIENT ARE INCORRECT OR INCORRECT TOLERANCESoutof QuasiNewtonEMA: 008: -log(p) = 7003.6 tol 0.10 This error did not stop the rest of the recon from running for quite some time after the error, however, it ultimately exited with errors. I searched the mail archive and found reference to this error message, but I couldn't identify how it was resolved/what the cause of it might be. Any suggestions as to what might be causing this?

[Freesurfer] mkbrainmask-sess
Dear Freesurfers, I am currently trying to do some retinotopic mapping. I have been successful in running the reconstruction commands and setting everything up for the analysis, but I have run into problems when using the selxavg3-sess command. i.e. selxavg3-sess -a rtopy.self.lh -s IFEE2211 -no-preproc ( -no-preproc since I have co-registered and motion corrected my files in SPM). I was unable to run this command as freesurfer could not find /media/sf_DATA1/RETINOTOPY/IFEE2211/bold/001/global.meanval.dat So I ran mktemplate - sess, which was successfully completed. And then I ran mkbrainmask-sess (see below). Any help with this would be much appreciated.

Re: [Freesurfer] Cutting closed line for flat map
Hi Greg two possible problem: 1. Make sure you right click before starting to define medial wall so all other clicks are erased. 2. Make sure you click in the order you want things connected. cheers Bruce On Fri, 23 Mar 2012, Greg Burgess wrote: > I'm trying to cut the medial wall as described in Step 2 on > http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/FreeSurferOccipitalFlattenedPatch . > However, each time I click "Cut Closed Line", I get a jumble of lines that go > all over the cortex and medial wall, rather than a clean circle around the > medial wall.

I'm trying to cut the medial wall as described in Step 2 on http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/FreeSurferOccipitalFlattenedPatch . However, each time I click "Cut Closed Line", I get a jumble of lines that go all over the cortex and medial wall, rather than a clean circle around the medial wall.

Re: [Freesurfer] Checkout release and stable branch
Hi Nick, the ./setup_configure works perfectly on the stable branch whereas it looks like it is not working anymore on the dev branch. With a checkout from last week I didn't have this issue.

Re: [Freesurfer] Cortical Normalization Questions
Our reply to that is here http://bjp.rcpsych.org/content/196/5/414.2.long which reminded me of other papers that have also used a global thickness measure to covary for mean cortical thickness and thereby "address whether any regional thickness differences were in excess of global cortical thickness differences between groups" -- see references [1,4] in our Reply. cheers, -MH > Hi Michael and others, > > maybe it's this one: > > http://bjp.rcpsych.org/content/196/5/414.1.long > > best, > -joost > > > On Fri, Mar 23, 2012 at 2:15 AM, Michael Harms > wrote: > >> >> Hi Jeff, >> I personally like the idea of using average thickness as a covariate to >> control for a reduction in "whole brain" thickness, and have used that >> approach in a paper.
