[Freesurfer] new atlas
Dear Freesurfers,Sorry for so many and basic questions lately.I'm working with my set of subjects (T1), and I'm looking for a different WM parcellation than the aseg.mgz, I have an atlas (JHU atlas in MNI space, Mori et al 1999, and some other in Colin27 space).I'm guessing I will have to use the FSaverage subject as target space. Since FS has many algorithms to make registrations, and the mris_ca_train requieres the predefined labels into an anootation file. I'm wondering about the best way to translate all the WM labeling from this atlas into FS space.

Re: [Freesurfer] space of T1.mgz
Hi there, Sorry, if my question is confusing. This is what I want to do, I have two groups of controls and patients and I've already run recon-all on them. I now want to know the head/body/tail volumes. What I did was: 1. used mri_binarize to get the right and left hippocampal masks from the cortical segmentation (using label numbers 17, 53) 2. used mri_convert to convert left_hippo.mgz, right_hippo.mgz and T1.mgz into .nii files. 3. use itk SNAP to manually segment the total hippocampus (the freesurfer mask) into head, body and tail. now, my questions is regarding the last step. If the individual segmentations are in the native space, I can't be sure that the landmarks I'm using for head/body/tail separation is always the same (since some of the subjects might be in an oblique space). So would you recommend that I first register the T1 and segmentations all into a common space? Also, I was wondering if the segmentation is going to effect the actual volume (since the brain is going to be stretched and transformed while doing the registration). I hope I made my question clear and I would greatly appreciate your advice.

Re: [Freesurfer] tracula - posterior density just one-dimensional curve
Hi Andi - I managed to track this down by looking at the complete data set that you sent me. Your bvals file has no b=0, there's only b=2075 with some b=5 interspersed. The b=5 volumes must be your baseline volumes but unfortunately there's no way for the program to know this right now. As a hack for now I'd just set the 5's to 0's in dmri/bvals and rerun the path reconstruction step, it should be a fine approximation for that step. I'll add support to this for the next version.

[Freesurfer] Diffusion Tensor Imaging
Dear Freesurfers, I am not very experienced with Freesurfer and would like to construct a Diffusion Tensor Image. I have the .bvecs, .bvals and .img files which I believe should suffice. I am aware that the format is slightly old but I believe it should still be fine. I attempted to use dt_recon and freeview but could not quite get the results I anticipated. I would really appreciate any help.

Re: [Freesurfer] L-R Volume Flipping
Oh, right, that can be a problem. In 5.2, I've changed it to use nii by default. This breaks when spm2 is used, but then the user can spec to use img instead. doug On 12/19/12 5:38 PM, MCLAREN, Donald wrote: When we added the --spm-nii option, the problem disappears.

If the fmri has an ordering such that the columns increase as you go from left to right, then they will have to be reversed when you map them to the orig.mgz. This is generally not a problem because we always keep track of which side is left and right. If you are using a visualization tool that does not read in and act on the geometry, then things can appear to flip around. doug On 12/18/12 8:47 PM, MCLAREN, Donald wrote: Dear All, I've noticed something strange with some data I'm helping to process: When looking at the L/R asymmetry in the brains (attached), the images seem to flip after bbregister/mri_vol2vol.
