Hello Freesurfer Experts,
I'm writing with a quick question about matched analysis. We have a cohort of MRI data collected such that there are two controls for each case, and these 2 controls are each matched to a specific case using a propensity score algorithm (~400 subjects total). For our analysis, we would like to try to implement a matched (or paired difference) analysis of cortical thickness (across the whole surface, not .aparcs) in Freesurfer. However, based all the documentation I have been able to find it seems that FS permits only paired difference analyses using matched pairs. Is this correct? Might there any way to implement such an analysis in Freesurfer using matched trios instead? We are open to using any Freesurfer version for this analysis, including dev, though the scans are currently reconned with FS 5.3. Thank you so much for your consideration!
