Re: [Freesurfer] Hippocampal Subsectioning

2014-07-13 Thread Marcos Martins da Silva

Hi, Joshua
Just answered this to Mohammad Zia in a previous message and I guess it
is useful to you.

1- The name Right-Hippocampus is misleading you. The hippocampal
subfields segmentation is atlas based. And the atlas was generated from
expert manual segmentation. The problem is that the most posterior part
of hippocampal tail is too small to allow a precise segmentation. So
they know it was part of hippocampus but not being able to discriminate
the subfields in this portion they named as hippocampus. This name in
manual segmentation was preserved in FreeSurfer's automated process. So
in this list, Rigth-Hippocapus does not mean the whole right
hippocampus. It is just the portion of the right hippocampus not
segmented in subfields. You can see more details at
https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/pub/articles/VanLeemputHippocampus2009.pdf . 
There you can read:

Towards the tail of the hippocampus, the manual delineations no longer
discern between the different subfields, but rather lump everything
together as simply ‘‘hippocampus,’’

In my own data I renamed this to right hippocampal tail complement
just to avoid this confusion.

2- Yes, just divide the volumeInVoxels value by eight (or multiply by
0.125, like Eugenio said) to get the volume in cubic milimeters.

 Hi,
  I was doing a hippocampal subsectioning on a data set. Previously
 recon-all -all was used, and then I did recon-all -hippo-subfields. I
 then used the script kvlQuantifyHippocampalSubfieldSegmentations.sh to
 find the volume of the hippocampus and its sub parts. I was confused
 as to the data I was getting out. The hippocampus seems to large. The
 voxel size is 0.5 mm * 0.5 mm * 0.5 mm so the hippocampal areas seem
 to large. Also the subunits of the hippocampus are larger than the
 actual hippocampus which again does not make sense. I attached one of
 the output files

Hi Joshua,
the measurements are in voxels, so you need to multiply them by 0.125 (which is 
0.5^3) to obtain values in mm3.
