Freesurfers, The new version of Freesurfer, v5.3, is available for download!
Recall from our prior posting that this is intended to replace v5.2, which had a problem with pial and white surface generation affecting thickness and area measures. Users should not use v5.2 for any surface-based studies. For a list of what v5.3 contains, see this page: http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/ReleaseNotes If you have already run data through v5.2, and do not want to re-run everything again but only what is necessary, then run the following on your subjects using v5.3: recon-all -s <subjid> \ -white \ -smooth2 \ -inflate2 \ -autorecon3 This will create new surfaces and surface data. Note that if you choose to re-run the entire stream (-all), the aseg stats will differ from v5.2, but our tests show this difference to be insignificant. To download v5.3, see this page: http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/Download And remember our home page is here: http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu And list info is here: http://mail.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/mailman/listinfo/freesurfer Thank you to everyone who downloaded and tested the beta release of v5.3. We apologize for the hassle and expense of releasing a problematic v5.2. We have improved our testing in the process.
