Hi again
I want to use my hippocampal segmentation for masking 2380 brain volumes.
Is there a way to find out using Freesurfer if the hippocampal subfields
and the 2380 volumes are in the same space? The mean of the 2380 volumes
and the hippocampal subfields align correctly when I use Freesurfer's
freeview to view them. But does that also mean they are in the same voxel
space?
And if they aren't in the same space, is there any way using Freesurfer
that I can have the two in the same space?
I really appreciate any suggestions!
Thanks,
Priyanka Mehta
