Re: [Freesurfer] entorhinal cortex volume question

2013-01-29 Thread Mehul Sampat
Hi Folks,

I have a question about entorhinal cortex volume. The entorhinal cortex is
listed in ?h.aparc.stats and ?h.entorhinal_exvivo.stats.  In a previous
post on the mailing list, it was mentioned that we should use the volume
measurement from ?h.entorhinal_exvivo.stats.

We would like to make manual corrections to the entorhinal cortex
segmentation
(when required). For this task I can create a entorhinal volume from
?h.entorhinal_exvivo.label
using  mri_label2vol

This entorhinal volume will be different from the one in aparc+aseg.mgz

My question is:
Has anyone published any protocols to somehow combine the two entorhinal
volumes ?

Or is recommend to take the take the entorhinal volume created from
?h.entorhinal_exvivo.stats.
and overlay it on norm.mgz and edit manually (when required).
One limitation of this approach is that it would be hard to integrate this
entorhinal volume back into
aparc+aseg.mgz...

Thanks
Mehul

 I am  very new to freesurfer so please excuse my basic question:
 We want to get measurements of entorhinal cortex volumes on a group of

 I also noticed another ?h.entorhinal_exvivo.stats, with different results.
 Which should I use for a group analysis of entorhinal volume and surface
 area, and why are the results very different?

Re: [Freesurfer] entorhinal cortex volume question

2013-01-29 Thread Bruce Fischl

Hi Mehul

the entorhinal label in the aparc was drawn by Rahul based on gyral 
landmarks. The one in the _exvivo.stats is based on being able to see the 
layer II islands in ex vivo MRI and hence we believe it is more accurate. 
Not sure why you need to integrate the ex vivo one back into the 
aparc+aseg, can you clarify?

Re: [Freesurfer] entorhinal cortex volume question

2013-01-29 Thread Mehul Sampat
Thanks for quick response Bruce.  We will use the volume from ex-vivo
stats..

Regarding the need to integrate the ex vivo one back into aparc+aseg.

We noticed the entorhinal volume in aparc is larger than that in
exvivo.stats.
So do the extra entorhinal voxels in aparc need to be re-labelled as
unkown
or as cortical-gray-matter?

We plan to make manual correction on aparc (when required):
So would it be a good approach to use the entorhinal labels from
exvivo.stats to guide the corrections on aparc ? In this case, the question
is, what should the end-user re-label
the extra entorhinal voxels as ?

Thanks
Mehul
