[Freesurfer] Building your own fsaverage

2017-06-26 Thread Silas
Dear FreeSurfer team,


I'm making a surface based group analysis of 40 multiple sclerosis subjects 
using FreeSurfer tools.


What are the advantages of building your own fsaverage (make_average_subject) 
instead of using the premade fsaverage? Would you in general recommend this? 
What is the pro's and con's of building your own fsaverage?


All the best,

Silas


I searched the mailing stream and found this answer:

'make_average_subject script, but as Doug implies you probably don't need to. 
Our warp is
high-enough dimensional that you rarely need to build average subjects from
your own population'

I have not looked at enough to really know. You may get a small boost in 
power, but it will probably only help if the effects you are looking at 
are right on the edge of significance.
