Hi Martin,
I am also following this thread with interest. Is that multi-modal prototype you mentioned available in the next FS6.0? Many thanks. Best Wishes, Elijah Navena Rebecca Lingum <http://www.mail-archive.com/search?l=freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu&q=from:%22Navena+Rebecca+Lingum%22> Wed, 18 May 2016 10:25:09 -0700 <http://www.mail-archive.com/search?l=freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu&q=date:20160518> Would any member of the FreeSurfer team be able to help with this question? I would like to use the FreeSurfer software to delineate white matter hyperintensities. I have processed my T1 images using the recon-all command, and in the aseg.stat file there is a value for WM hypointensities. Is there an alternate stream/ FreeSurfer algorithm that exists for the processing of T2w FLAIR images for WM hyperintensities?

I think the one that is available in FreeSurfer is only based on T1 images, but a prototype of a better stream exists, that can incorporate different modalities. Best, Martin P.S. Changed the subject, to reflect that this is not a longitudinal question any more. On 05/17/2016 12:37 PM, Navena Rebecca Lingum wrote: Dear Martin, Thank you kindly for your prompt response. I am actually having difficulties with the delineation of White Matter Hyperintensities at a single time point. I apologize if my question is redundant and perhaps an answer to it is already mentioned elsewhere. As it stands, I am finding it difficult to understand the exact "pipeline" of commands necessary to perform this segmentation and accurate delineation of WMH. I have ran the recon -all command on my T1w images, but I suspect a proper segmentation of WMH would require a T2w Flair (which I have). How do I go about combining the preprocessing data produced by FreeSurfer with my T2w images to produce a WMH mask/volume/stats? Any help on the matter is much appreciated!

You can, however, make use of the longitudinal stream and it's increase reliability - e.g it is working in the same space across time, which should help get more reliable estimates.

Is there an additional add-on for the software to perform this analysis or can this analysis be performed using the recon-all command?
