[Freesurfer] FreeSurfer algorithms

2006-05-18 Thread anthony gallo
Surfers,Can someone please point me towards some detailed description of the algorithms that freesurfer uses to process the data...maybe there are some papers that talk about this?? Anthony

[Freesurfer] inflated images

2006-05-17 Thread anthony gallo
Hello all,Can some one edify me regarding how FreeSurfer is able to maintain the same basic brain geometry (hemisphere shape) when it creates an inflated file image. I would figure that some areas (because of deeper sulci) would blow up (produce more inflated surface) much differently than others thus not maintaining the basic shape. I was thinking that maybe the program just flattens it all period, but then I wouldn't really be able to explain how you can still view the respective cortical thickness data because that too must correspond with all the nooks and crannies.
I appreciate your help,Anthony

How should one interpret the curvature function...what is the essence of it's being...what does it mean?

[Freesurfer] tksurfer - cuvature - thickness

2006-04-05 Thread anthony gallo
I loaded the curvature - thickness file...I don't understand how this gives you thickness measurments. On the surfer interface what are the distance and curvature numbers measured in.what are the units? What is taken as center for those measurements as well? 
Thanks very much for your help!
