Hi Ruopeng,

I agree that the options are treated as part of the file path in my command 
line.

Thank you for the support.

Hi Ikbeom,


I think this is because the added options at the end of file path are treated 
as part of the path by the shell and thus returns no match. I will try to put a 
fix on that.

For example, I would like to set grayscale window as min=0 and max=100 for all

The command line below works if I provide the option for each volume:
freeview -v sitename/mri/subj0401/brainmask.mgz:grayscale=0,100 \

[Freesurfer] Question re: Longitudinal processing stream transforms.

2019-10-16 Thread Jamie Hanson
External Email - Use Caution

Dear FS List,

My group was trying to look at the overlap between cortical labels in the
longitudinal processing stream and I had a question re: use of transform
files. In brief, we followed the commands for the longitudinal
processing stream, creating a "subject-specific" template for each
participant (
https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/LongitudinalProcessing#WorkflowSummary,
using FS v.6.0). We processed T1w images multiple times and now, we wanted
to transform the time 1 and time 2 (native space) scans to their
subject-specific template.

We used the following commands--
mri_vol2vol --mov
$INDIVIDUAL_SCAN_TIME1_DIR/sub-BNU_25864_001.long.sub-BNU_25864_template/mri/brain.mgz
--o $INDIVIDUAL_SCAN_TIME1/brain_001_to_temp.mgz --lta
$SUBJECT_SPECIFIC_TEMPLATE_DIR/mri/transforms/sub-BNU_25864_001_to_sub-BNU_25864_template.lta
--targ $SUBJECT_SPECIFIC_TEMPLATE_DIR/mri/brain.mgz

But when we did this for time 1 and time 2 scans, they were poorly aligned.
I also used the lta file for template to 001, but again things were poorly
aligned. Should we be using m3z files? Or combining different transforms?
Any guidance or suggestions are deeply appreciated.

Thanks much,
Jamie.

[Freesurfer] Postdoctoral Positions in Pediatric Neuroimaging at the Waisman Center, University of Wisconsin Madison

2019-10-16 Thread Doug Dean III
External Email - Use Caution

Postdoctoral Research Associate

Waisman Center, University of Wisconsin–Madison, Madison WI



The Waisman Laboratory for Brain Imaging & Behavior at the Waisman Center, 
University of Wisconsin–Madison, is seeking highly motivated postdoctoral 
researchers to work on neuroimaging research studies of young children and 
individuals with intellectual and developmental disorders (IDDs).



Areas of research include the development and evaluation of image acquisition 
and analyses for brain imaging studies of infants, young children, and 
individuals with autism, Down syndrome and fragile X syndrome. The Alexander 
and Dean labs at the Waisman Laboratory for Brain Imaging & Behavior have 
multiple projects using MRI and functional near infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS). 
Work is ongoing to develop rapid, quiet and motion-correction imaging methods 
to improve studies in these challenging populations. Studies are also under way 
to characterize brain structure, microstructure and function change during 
early brain development and how development is affected in IDDs. The 
postdoctoral research associates will have opportunities to participate in 
activities related to neuroimaging methods development and evaluation, study 
data collection and analyses, research publications, grant writing and are 
expected to make positive scholarly contributions to our interdisciplinary and 
highly collaborative research programs.


Desired Qualifications: Ph.D. in medical physics, neuroscience, engineering 
and/or a related field. Prior experience with imaging techniques (e.g. MRI, 
DTI, fMRI, PET, fNIRS) is preferred.  Experience with brain image analysis 
software tools, MATLAB, Python, C++ and/or other computer programming is highly 
desirable. Pulse sequence programming experience would be a plus but not 
required. The candidate is expected to have an emerging track record of 
publishing in academic journals, strong analytic skills, and capable of working 
within a collaborative environment.



Interested candidates should send: 1) curriculum vitae; 2) cover letter 
outlining research interests, experience, and career goals; and 3) a list of 
three references to either Dr. Andy Alexander at 
alalexand...@wisc.edu or Dr. Douglas Dean at 
dean...@wisc.edu.

the skull stripping is a hybrid procedure that uses both a watershed
algorithm and a deformable surface. There is no single intensity
threshold in it. Maybe I'm misunderstanding your question? There are
parameters you can change (for example the preflooding height), but
there is no intensity thresholding

Re: [Freesurfer] imperfect segmentation in the occipital lobe in epilepsy patient

2019-10-16 Thread Xiaoqian Yan
External Email - Use Caution

Dear Bruce,

Thanks for the reply. I have uploaded my data through the Martinos Center
FileDrop, here is the link:
+ Data_Xiaoqian.zip (169.46 MiB) <
http://gate.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/filedrop2/?p=6wbctqzrzh1>

I explained my problems in that link, but still copy and past here:

'' I am having troubles doing a good segmentation in the right occipital
lobe in a patient's brain. There is a thermal lesion in that region, a
black whole, that could make the segmentations go wrong. I tried to edit
the wm, but the results were not ideal.

The thermal lesion can be clearly seen from the axial slices 108 - 115,
e.g. in RAS coordinate [40,-50,-4] on the axial slice 112. The bad
segmentation (wm and pial surface) can be seen from the coronal slices 54 -
62, e.g. in coordinate [42, -52, -10] on the coronal slice 57. The wrong
segmentation made it impossible to overlap the functional activations in
the OFA (occipital face area) region on the surface.

In my uploaded data directory, I already edited the wm and brainmask, and I
only reran 'recon-all -autorecon2-wm -subjid name' to save time. ''

Thanks in advance, and best wishes,

Xiaoqian

[Freesurfer] Postdoc Position at UPenn

2019-10-16 Thread Mackey, Allyson P
External Email - Use Caution

Postdoctoral Fellowship in Pediatric Neuroimaging at the University of 
Pennsylvania

Drs. Allyson Mackey and Dylan Tisdall are seeking a postdoctoral fellow for an 
NIH-funded study on early childhood brain development. The goals of the study 
are to develop motion-resilient structural and functional MRI sequences, and to 
validate the new sequences in 100 children between the ages of 3 and 5. 
Children will be recruited from high-poverty, high-opioid use neighborhoods of 
Philadelphia. This study is part of the HEALthy Brain and Child Development 
(HBCD) 
planning initiative. Ultimately, HBCD will enroll pregnant mothers and follow 
children for at least 10 years, and will include data on children’s 
experiences, brain structure and function, and social, emotional, and cognitive 
development.

The postdoctoral fellow will join the Changing Brain 
Lab at the University of Pennsylvania, an 
interdisciplinary research group that studies how young children’s experiences 
change their brains. We are interested in the development of 
academically-relevant skills including reasoning, curiosity, creativity, and 
persistence. The CBL is part of a vibrant psychology and neuroscience community 
at Penn, and is affiliated with mindCORE, the 
Center for Neuroscience and Society, and the 
Positive Psychology Center. Imaging is conducted at 
the Center for Functional Neuroimaging, 
which includes research-dedicated 3T Siemens Prisma and 7T Siemens Terra 
scanners.

We welcome candidates with doctoral degrees in a wide variety of fields, 
including physics, engineering, statistics, neuroscience, and psychology. 
Applicants should have strong publication records, experience with pediatric 
neuroimaging, strong statistical training, and excellent computational skills.

To apply, please send a cover letter describing your doctoral research and your 
goals for postdoctoral training, as well as your CV to Allyson Mackey at 
mack...@upenn.edu. As the position involves 
collaborating with multiple advisors, graduate students, and research 
assistants, please provide contact information for someone who has mentored 
you, and for someone you have mentored.

Applications will be reviewed as they are received.The position is for one 
year, renewable for up to 3 years total. Ideal start date is on or before 
February 1st, 2020.

[Freesurfer] Group effect Contrast for 6 groups

2019-10-16 Thread cody samth
External Email - Use Caution

Hi,

I'm designing an analysis that will have 6 groups (two factors/three
levels). I was wondering if I could get some input regarding my contrast
for the group effect. Based on the group effect contrast under the FSGD
examples for 3 groups I've written a five line contrast file that compares
group 1 against the other 5 groups.

1-1 0 0 0 0
1 0 -1 0 0 0
1 0 0 -1 0 0
1 0 0 0 -1 0
1 0 0 0 0 -1

Which from my understanding should cover the rest of the contrasts such as
2v5 3v6 and etc. Is my understanding of this correct?

Re: [Freesurfer] imperfect segmentation in the occipital lobe in epilepsy patient

2019-10-16 Thread Bruce Fischl

Hi Xiaoqian

it's pretty hard to tell what's going on from these images. If you tar/gzip 
your whole subject dir and upload it with an email telling us the specific 
voxel coords that you want us to examine


cheers

Dear Douglas,
Thanks for your reply. I double checked my results. It was true that the
rh.orig.nofix and rh.orig did not overlap over the region that I was
interested in. I re-edit the wm, and only ran 'recon-all -autorecon2-wm
-subjid patientname' to check the results, but the rh.orig.nofix and rh.orig
were still not overlapped. Do you mind helping me check my wm edits? For me,
the thermal lesion is a black hole that big enough to confuse the
segmentation. Maybe there is a way to mark that region or add a label,
before I run the recon-all?

P.S. in the attached figures, pial is in green, rh.orig.nofix in red, and
rh.orig in yellow.

Thanks and have a nice day,

Xiaoqian

  I think that the wm edits should have worked. Can you load the
  rh.orig.nofix and rh.orig to see if they encompass your edits?
  If not, then maybe your did not re-run it properly.

  Dear Freesurfer experts,
I am trying to do the segmentation on a patient's T1 image. I
did not get error messages running the 'recon-all' (recon-all -i
T1.nii -subjid PatientName -all), but the segmentation over the
right occipital lobe was imperfect, which caused failures to map
the functional activations in this region onto the surface. 

I tried to manually edit the wm.mgz several times, but the
output did not change a lot (please see the attached image). The
patient had depth EEG electrodes implanted in this region
before, so there is a thermal lesion which I thought could have
caused the bad segmentation.  Do you have any ideas about what I
can do next, or it is possible for you to help me editing the
data?

Thanks in advance, best wishes

Xiaoqian
