[Freesurfer] trying to understand mri_surf2surf

2013-08-30 Thread David Romano
Hi everyone, In an earlier post, I had asked how to transform the white surface of one subject to the white surface of another subject, and Bruce Fischl suggested mri_surf2surf should be able to do this. After looking over the website material related to mri_surf2surf, I find I'm not sure how mr

Hi Nikhil, If you are only interested in the norm.mgz you don't need the longitudinal pipeline, because that is designed to give you more reliable segmentations and surfaces. Simply run 1 and 2 and you have the norm for all subjects / time points. If you want to register them into the same s

Hi David, in newer versions (not sure exactly when I added this) you can pass -addtp to the -long run. That will add the time point to the study without re-running the base. However this will probably introduce a processing bias as this time point will be treated differently from the other ti

Hi Yoon, I usually run mri_glmfit directly and then look at the gamma map (that is the average if you ran a one sample group mean analysis, which is what you did, I think). qdec is just a wrapper around glmfit so the file should be there, I am not sure if qdec can visualize it directly? (am no
