Re: [Freesurfer] Volume analysis in native space vs. mni305 space

2016-02-07 Thread Douglas Greve


Right. FSFAST uses "three spaces": lh (surface), rh (surface), and 
subcortical (volume). To prevent voxels from being counted twice, we 
mask cortical voxels out of the volume-based analysis.

Hi FreeSurfer experts,

I'm writing to follow up on an email I sent on Monday.

I'm working in 5.3 and switching over to running my 1st level analysis 
in fsaverage. I noticed that when visualizing the volume output from 
the mni305 analysis in tkmedit, there is only activation in 
subcortical regions and none in cortical regions.


I read in the FreeSurfer release notes for 5.1 that fsfast "now masks 
the volume-based analysis to include only subcortical areas."


I just wanted to confirm that we are not seeing cortical activation in 
the volume due to it being masked out.


Again, my commands are:

Hi FreeSurfer experts,

I'm in the process of switching over our first-level analyses from 
being run in native space to being run in fsaverage/mni305 space. 
Looking at the first-levels on an individual subject level, the 
volume analyses look fairly different (cortical signal especially is 
lost in the mni305 analysis). I've attached a couple of slides with 
images comparing the two volume analyses.


My commands for the mni305 analysis are...

I have a couple of questions regarding the differences between the 
two analyses. First, why is so much of the signal robustness from the 
native space volume analysis lost in the mni305 analysis? Second, why 
are the voxel sizes so different between the two analyses (with the 
native space analysis having a much larger voxel size)?
