[Freesurfer] about labels

hi everyone i have run recon-all on somme subjects and i want to make build a masque containing somme geri (pre and post central for example) and  with some color, to load on a pial surface (as overlay). i tried to understand the commands like mri_annotation2label and

Dear all, I think I figured out the contrasts (I'm using [0 0 0 0 0.5 0.5 0 0]...is that correct?) but I've come across an error when trying to do the next step in the tutorial. I didn't cache the data during recon-all, so I ran the following: mris_preproc --fsgd MMSE-AD.fsgd --target fsaverage

Hello Anastasia! Thank you very much for your response! My bvecs and bvals were created by saving excel spreadsheet as a tab delimited file on mac. I reformated my bvecs manually using nano and reran the preprocessing. Unfortunately, it exited with the same error. I'm providing you my reformated

[Freesurfer] how to make lh.curv lh.sulc visible

2011-12-02 Thread Maria Felber
Dear all, in the process of understanding freesurfer I like to see/inspect the created transforms visually. However, so far I am not able to see all the data that is stored in the transforms folder. So is it possible to see files like /transforms/lh.curv or /transfroms/lh.sulc? And if yes,

Hi Maria, those files don't live in the transforms dir, they live in the surf dir. Further, pial, inflated and orig are surfaces with geometry and topology information, but sulc and curv are just scalar fields over the surface. You can display them on any of the surfaces using file-load

Hi Linda, you have two class varibles (M and F) and three continuous variables (Age, MMSE, and ED), so you'll have 2*(3+1)=8 regressors, so your contrast will have 6 elements. The order of the elements will be: 1. M-offset 2. F-offset 3. M-AgeSlope 4. F-AgeSlope 5. M-MMSE-Slope 6. F-MMSE-Slope

Hi Jeff, it's going to be tricker than that to get the exact value. For the WM volume computation, there's yet another routine that is used. This one creates a high-resolution volume to determine which voxels are withing the WM surface. It then loops through the voxels within the WM surface

Is this volume data? If so, then use --grf with mri_glmfit-sim instead of --cache. doug Antonella Kis wrote: Dear Doug, Can you please advise me how I can do a multiple comparison for my DTI group analysis? I tried and I ran: mri_glmfit --y group-fa-tal.nii --fsgd

Re: [Freesurfer] about labels

2011-12-02 Thread Douglas N Greve
What exactly is your question? Run mri_annotation2label to convert the annotation with pre and postcentral gyri to labels. Then re-combine just those two labels into an annotation with mris_label2annot. You can supply a color table to control what colors the labels have in the new annotation.

Thanks Doug. And good question that I've wondered about myself Jeff. The part about the high-resolution volume that is created under the hood explains why mris_wm_volume takes substantially longer to complete than would be expected relative to just running `mris_volume Xh.white` and then
