Hi- Just gently re-bumping this question/thread.
Noting that the previous thread with recommendations about non-GM ROIs, which I used in the coming up with the GM list above, is here: http://www.mail-archive.com/freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/msg50005.html Thanks, pt On Mon, Dec 12, 2016 at 10:43 AM, P Taylor <neon.tay...@gmail.com> wrote: > And, a minor clarification on one of the ROIs in question-- > > I should have phrase the comment about ROI #80 as follows: > 80 non-WM-hypointensities -------> *should be in list of FS_nongm?
