[Freesurfer] Sub cortical volumes and CVS

2014-02-24 Thread Jennifer Eastman
Hello, I am interested in comparing sub-cortical volumes across subjects in my data set. I am wondering if using the CVS registration step is useful in improving the accuracy of the sub-cortical volume measurements independently. I will not be examining the cortical thickness just sub-cortical.

The files in the mult-comp-cor folder are generated from a simulation, so the simulation has to be run with larger FWHMs. In the end, I think that 25 is probably too much smoothing. You can start to see low spatial frequency artifacts when you smooth too much. I usually use 10-15 doug On 0

When you design an analysis, you postulate certain effects (eg, diagnosis, age). Each of these effects gets a column in the design matrix (eg, normal, AD, age or young/old). Each column has a regression coefficient that gets fit in the analysis that indicates the size of each of the effects. T
