Re: [Freesurfer] recalculate mean cortical thickness and/or regional thickness using a SD threshold or exclusion mask
External Email - Use Caution
Hi Bruce,
Thank you, I didn't realize it would be so simple in matlab!
To help others who might be looking for a solution:
I was able to use MRIread for both my data.mgh file (created using
mri_surf2surf, resampled to template space for the thickness values) and
mask file (which i inverted using mri_binarize --binval 0 --binvalnot 1).
Then I was able to use a simple multiplication across the two vectors (as
they have the same number of vertices) to conserve the thickness values
from vertices of interest and remove values from vertices I wanted to
exclude.
matlab code:
datafile_lh=MRIread('data_lh.mgh')
maskfile_lh=MRIread('mask_lh.mgh')
newmatrix=datafile.vol.*mask.vol).
Thanks again!
Lindsay

[Freesurfer] recalculate mean cortical thickness and/or regional thickness using a SD threshold or exclusion mask
External Email - Use Caution Hello Freesurfer Community, I am wondering if it is possible to recalculate cortical thickness metrics (perhaps using mri_segstats or aparcstats2table) while including either a SD threshold or an exclusion mask. Using mri_surf2surf to register scans to the same space and then mri_surface_stats to create the std maps I have been comparing the variability of cortical thickness across the cortex for multiple scans across the same subject. From this I can determine a SD threshold point (0.5 say) or create a mask that includes all regions above that threshold. I would like to use this to threshold the regions showing the highest variability out of my calculations for mean hemispheric thickness and also regional thickness.

[Freesurfer] using tkregister2 to check registration to custom atlas
External Email - Use Caution Hello Freesurfer Community, I am interested in seeing how well my subject scan registered to a custom atlas after being run through recon-all. From Freesurfer Wiki, although it is possible to see this in freeview, tkregister2 seems to be the best method as manual edits can be made if the registration went badly. I am however running into issues trying to load the subject image, atlas image, and surfaces in the same space. If I understand correctly, when I ran my recon-all specifying a custom atlas (-custom-tal-atlas RLB700_atlas_as_orig) the transform files (talairach.xfm) are to the custom atlas rather than the talairach atlas. If I load: tkregister2 --s 180523_HTP02168_ANAT5_init2base --fstal --surfs the subject scan, talairach atlas and surfaces load just fine. It is clear the talairach atlas was not used.

[Freesurfer] Extract individual vertex thickness values from cortical parcellations
External Email - Use Caution Hello Freesurfer Community, I am looking for a way to extract thickness values at the level of each vertex from Freesurfer atlas-based parcellated regions (aparc.annot), or more generally lobes. Is this possible? Using mri_segstats I know it is possible to get more general metrics such as min, max and average thickness values, and # of voxels. Is it possible to use an annot file to read out the raw thickness values? This post was the closest I could find to answering my question, however, this was at the group level and not specified for parcellated regions. https://mail.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/pipermail//freesurfer/2012-January/022097.html Thank you in advance, Lindsay -- *Lindsay Hanford, PhD* *The Buckner Laboratory* *|* *Harvard University* ___ Freesurfer mailing list Freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu https://mail.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/mailman/listinfo/freesurfer
[Freesurfer] create mask from cluster number?
Hello Freesurfer Developers, The main point of my post is to determine whether its possible to create a mask from a cluster ID run using a subset of the sample, and then use that mask to extract cortical thickness values from a model run with the full sample. I am running a pretty basic cortical thickness- behavioural correlation analysis with two groups using fsgd. Because I have a relatively small sample size (just over 40 participants in each group) I wanted to restrict my analysis to only regions that showed a relationship within the HC group. I ran the model using mri_glmfit: mri_glmfit --y HC.43.rh.10.mgh --fsgd Behav.fsgd --C v1.slope.mtx --surf fsaverage rh --cortex --glmdir MCCB.HC.43.rh Behav.fsgd setup: GroupDescriptorFile 1 Title MaineffectofGroup Class HC Variables BehavMC Input 128 HC -5 Input 132 HC 8 Input 192 HC -10 Input 193 HC -6 ... v1.slope.mtx: 0 1 *quick side question - in the past I was curious to see if this could test positive and negative relationships. I tried two different contrasts: 0 1 and 0 -1 to test the positive and negative relationships, respectively, however the results were the direct inverse of each other... it didn't show negative slope relationships. I am curious if its possible to test for negative relationships in freesurfer? How would you set up that contrast? next, I used mri_surfcluster to generate image and table files: mri_surfcluster --in HC.43.rh/v1.slope/sig.mgh --subject fsaverage --hemi rh --surf pial --annot aparc --thmin 2 --ocn HC.43.rh/v1.slope/results.ocn.mgh --sum HC.43.rh/v1.slope/results.sum.txt my results.sum.txt file shows a number of clusters ClusterNo Max VtxMax Size(mm^2) TalX TalY TalZNVtxs Annot 13.719 163035270.33 57.7 -34.6 -21.5 234 inferiortemporal 23.499 22608217.35 33.2 -48.2 -15.1 230 fusiform 33.1702804 93.01 42.1 22.1 23.9 132 rostralmiddlefrontal Would it be possible to create a mask defined by say "ClusterNo 1"? Once the mask is created, I want to use it to extract the cortical thickness values for all participants (including those that weren't used to create the mask).. Is this possible? Can that be done using mri_segstats? Let me know if you require any other details.

Re: [Freesurfer] Contrast files for a complex ANCOVA (involving multiple categorical covariates) model
Hello Doug, Thank you for your reply. I misused the word contrast, when I should have said design matrix. It looks at though I should be able to look at an interaction effect between two variables but ignore another. In the case of the example https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/Fsgdf2G2V you could be able to look at the interaction between Group and Age while ignoring (or controlling) for the effects of weight. But maybe this is not possible to do with a categorical variable? I have also considered using a four group design as shown in https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/Fsgdf4G1V, where you concatenate two categorical variables however, I dont think you can look at interaction effects between those variables anymore. So I'm still wondering if it is possible to look at the interaction between two categorical variables using fsgd? GroupDescriptorFile 1 #Title SZ vs HC Class HC Class SZ Variables Score Sex Age Input 130 HC high m 50 Input 277 HC low f 53 Input 190 HC low m 25 Input 201 SZ high f 29 Input 250 SZ high f 52 ...

[Freesurfer] Contrast files for a complex ANCOVA (involving multiple categorical covariates) model
Dear Freesurfer Community, I'm running into the issue of how to deal with testing the interaction effects of a model with multiple categorical variables. I have tried bypassing this issue by running multiple separate FSGD analyses, however, I wonder if this is the best mention to do this To put it into statistical terms, I am interested in creating a model that looks at group differences (2: HC vs Dx), and its interaction with test score (2: High vs Low) while still controlling for nuisance variables (sex, age). in other words: Cortical Thickness ~ Group + Group*Score + Score + Sex + Age Group*Score = interaction term I am mostly confused with how to appropriately create a contrast file that can show the interaction between Group and Score (two categorical variables) and STILL regress out the effects of sex. Is this even possible using fsgd? Thank you in advance!

Re: [Freesurfer] mri_glmfit error: matrix is ill-conditioned or badly scaled, condno = 1e+08
Hello, Has anyone had a chance to look at this? I still haven't been able to solve the problem. Thanks!
