Hi Sal - I'm cc-ing the list since this is of general interest. In 5.2 there's also a path.pd.trk file in the tracula output directory, which contains all the sample splines that were added up to create the probabilistic distribution in path.pd.nii.gz. The .trk format can be displayed in freeview or trackvis. These are still not like the pretty streamlines that you see visualized in deterministic tractography tools, simply b/c they haven't been smoothed.
Hope this helps, a.y On Sun, 7 Apr 2013, Salil Soman wrote: > Dear Anastasia, > > Is there a way to display the merged_avg33_mni_flt.mgz file as a set of > streamlines, rather > than the clay appearing structures generated by using freeview -tv > /merged_avg33_mni_flt.mgz ? > I ask primarily because my collaborators in surgery and neurology are > becoming increasingly > used to DTI fiber tracking images that give the appearance of multiple fibers > (I recognize > that the modeling of white matter tracts using probabilities does not support > delineation of > specific individual fibers, however, I think I am having a hard time even > introducing > collaborators to the DTI data generated by Tracula due to the unusual > appearance of its > output). > > Thank you for your time and consideration. > > Best wishes, > > Sal > > Salil Soman, MD, MS > > _______________________________________________ Freesurfer mailing list Freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu https://mail.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/mailman/listinfo/freesurfer The information in this e-mail is intended only for the person to whom it is addressed.
