Re: [Freesurfer] DTI - Tracula question

2016-02-05 Thread Anastasia Yendiki


As an add-on to the add-on, starting in 6.0 we'll be able to figure it out 
from the dicom header, so hopefully people won't have to worry about any 
of this in the future.

Re: [Freesurfer] DTI - Tracula question

2016-02-05 Thread Harms, Michael






As an add-on to this, note that using a single table for all subjects is probably only appropriate if the DWI was acquired with a fixed orientation relative to the scanner gradient axes (e.g., strictly axial) for all subjects.  If the orientation was customized
 individually for each subject (e.g., to align the imaging plane with the AC/PC), then it is unlikely that using a single table for all subjects is appropriate.

Re: [Freesurfer] DTI - Tracula question

2016-02-05 Thread Anastasia Yendiki


Hi Alan - Yes, you can give a single file for all data sets if they're all 
acquired with the same gradient table and slice prescription. As a test, 
you can extract the gradient tables from a couple of your data set's dicom 
headers and see how different they are. If there are only very small 
differences, using a single table for all will not make a difference.


Hope this helps,

working on a DTI dataset of around 70 subjects. This dataset has ostensibly
only 1 set of BVECS/BVALS. Can this set be 'generically' used for all the
images, given that they have been acquired on the same scanner?



thanks,



Alan

Re: [Freesurfer] DTI - Tracula question

2016-02-03 Thread Anastasia Yendiki


Hi Alan - A nifti file with the gradient tables and b-values embedded? All 
freesurfer programs can handle nifti volumes, compressed (.nii.gz) or not 
(.nii). You can pass those volumes to TRACULA, and pass the gradient table 
and b-value table as separate files.


Run "mri_convert --help" to see all image file formats that we can handle.

Hope this helps,
a.y

Hi Anastasia:

I am working on a set of DTI data that were obtained at the Martinos center. 
The data is in a single nii.gz file. The BVECS and
BVALS files are also embedded in this. Could you please advice me how do I code 
this in the DMRIRC file?

Should I convert the nii.gz file into Analyze to get at the BVECS/ BVALS?

thank you so much,

best regards,

Alan
