[Freesurfer] exporting surface as an image volume

2009-06-11 Thread Mayuresh Korgaonkar
Dear Freesurfer users and authors, Is it possible to export a surface (eg. ?h.thickness) to an image volume - something which could be read into SPM? I came across mri_surf2vol function, however I am not to familiar with the usage. I understand that a volume registration file is required,

[Freesurfer] Partial Volume Correction and wmparc.stats

2009-06-11 Thread Nasim Maleki
Dear Freesurfer developers, I'm wondering whether the wmparc.stats is computed with a partial volume correction at the boundaries of the structures. Thank you, Nasim ___ Freesurfer mailing list Freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu

Hi Mayuresh, what do you want to do with it in SPM? The thickness can be converted to a volume format, but it will actually be a 1 x n vector, where n is the # of vertices in the surface. Not sure if that will be useful or not. For example from the surf dir you could do: mris_convert -c

[Freesurfer] total gray and white matter volumes, and total brain volume

2009-06-11 Thread Dana W. Moore
Hi all, I am calculating total gray and white matter volumes using mrs_volume and mris_wm_volume, and I wanted to clarify what these are measuring. I am following the instructions on the morphometry stats wiki page, which say to use mris_volume and subract wm from pial volume to get total

2009-06-11 Thread Bruce Fischl
Hi Dana, this will compute all supra-tentorial white matter and *cortical* gray matter volume. The mris_wm_volume binary computes the interior of the ?h.white surface, then throws out the volume of all the non-wm structures in the interior. I guess the BrainSetNotVen value is a reasonable one

2009-06-11 Thread Michael Harms
Dana, Here's an approach that I use for total brain volume (without the cerebellum): Compute the total volume enclosed within the pial surface (mris_volume lh.pial) and then subtract out the volume from the aseg.stats for the Lateral-Ventricle and choroid-plexus). Repeat for both hemispheres,

[Freesurfer] Details about aseg Stats

Hello - can anyone tell me where I can find details on what aseg stats include and exclude from each measurement? The ones I need in particular are: Left-Cerebral-White-Matter Left-Cerebral-Cortex and IntraCranialVol. I'd like to understand if L-Cereb-Cortex means just gray matter,

If you visualize the segmentation (aseg.mgz) in tkmedit you can see exactly what is labeled Cerebral-White-Matter and Cerebral-Cortex based on the volume (not the surface) segmentation. As for the Intracranial Volume value in the preamble of the aseg.stats file, that is a statistical estimate of

[Freesurfer] Questions on ROI Comparisons

2009-06-11 Thread nmaleki
Dear all,   1-Is there a way to use mris_anatomical_stats to calculate mean ROI values on the re-sampled and smoothed individual subject data that is produced in the pre-processing step, rather than mapping the ROI back to each subjectsrsquo; space? If so what is the command?   2-If you define a
