[Freesurfer] Creating an ROI mask for Cortical Thickness Analysis

2014-10-22 Thread Smith, Michael
Hello Freesurfer’s

I am trying to look at the cortical thickness for a specific ROI on the 
cortical surface (Primary Auditory Cortex: transverse temporal gyri).  I found 
a specific tutorial 
(https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/VolumeRoiCorticalThickness) however 
the tutorial assumes I already have an ROI mask  created.  I was wondering if 
anyone had any tips on creating an ROI for the cortical surface from the 
parcellation/annotation files.  I know you can “hand-draw” ROI’s in tkmedit or 
freeview but I would prefer something less subjective that doesn’t rely on my 
untrained eye and unsteady hand! Thanks in advance.

Best,

Michael S.

Why not just get it from the ?h.aparc.stats file?

I guess I'm not entirely sure how to do that? Are there any tutorials on how to 
extract an ROI from the aparc.stats file?

Hi Michael

you can use mri_annotation2label to extract a specific label from the 
aparc file and go from there.

It is just a text file, so you can just look in it. You can also run 
aparcstats2table to extract all ROIs or a particular ROI for a group of 
subjects.
