Dear FreeSurfer team, in order to verify that the segmentation of Corpus Callosum was independent from the initial orientation of the subject MR scan I repeated the recon-all of FreeSurfer in two conditions: 1- when the initial alignement of the scan to the MNI space was gross;2- when the initial alignement of the scan was more precise, but amyway performed manuallly. We found two different results in the CC segmentation and in the resulting volumes of its subregions comparing 1 and 2. How is it possible? I thought that the CC segmentation was performed in the MNI space or with respect to CC eigen axes, but independently from the initial orientation of the scan. Thank you, Alessia Giuliano

The subregions in the CC are defined purely by the distance along the CC's eigenaxis. cheers Bruce On Mon, 26 May 2014, Alessia Giuliano wrote: > Dear FreeSurfer team, > > I'm intrested in the segmentation of Corpus Callosum and in the volumes of > its subregions. > > Freesurfer divides the Corpus Callosum in 5 subregions but I have noticed an > inconsistency in the boundary that separates the anterior part from the > middle anterior one. > In particular, the Rostrum is sometimes included in the anterior part, but > other times it is included in the middle anterior part, as you can see > comparing the two screenshots that I've attached. > > How much can I consider this parcellation to be reliable? > > Thank you, > > Alessia Giuliano > > _______________________________________________ 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.
