Hi Siri,

Are you trying to overlay the p value associated with each region on the 
fsaverage surface? This may help:

Dear Freesurfer experts,

 

I haven’t had the pleasure of receiving a response (yet), and was wondering 
whether that is because more information is needed?

 

In addition to the general theoretical question, the second part of the 
question is as important to me: Is there is any way, known to you experts, for 
me to visualize my SPSS results in a statistical-map-way?

 

If anyone could spare some time to help me out I would greatly appreciate it!!

Best,

Siri

Subject: [Freesurfer] Question - multiple comparisons in FS versus SPSS

 

Hi there!


I was hoping you could help me with the following 'problem' I am experiencing.

 

Short background: 

I compared volumetric brain characteristics as output from FreeSurfer 
parcellations and segmentations between 3 groups, by extracting the volumes per 
anatomical label from FreeSurfer and analyzing these in SPSS. In SPSS I did a 
mixed-model analysis, and performed subsequent Benjamini-Hochberg FDR 
correction for multiple comparisons.

 

At the moment, I want to make brain maps (because this is a nice way to 
visualize the data and a reviewer suggested it). However... I believe I end up 
with only being able to use the uncorrected maps? 

When I perform an FDR-correction (or MonteCarlo, or clusterwise) in FreeSurfer 
all the group differences disappear. Unfortunately there is nobody that I can 
consult on this matter in my lab, thus I really hope someone here can help me?
Personally, I think that the difference in the presence (SPSS) versus absence 
(FS) of groups effects is due to the correction method. I believe that in 
FreeSurfer I apply a whole brain multiple comparison correction, while in SPSS 
I merely apply a ROI-based FDR-correction I in SPSS (because I look at volume 
per label). 

 

However, I am not sure if this is indeed (theoretically) sound? Could anyone 
advise me? Is there a way I could visualise my own (SPSS) results?

If more info is needed please do say so, and I will provide it!

Thank you very much for your time and reply!

Best,

Siri
