Hi Bruce,
Thanks a lot for this. What is the difference between RAS and surface
RAS?
Do I need to convert the surface RAS into RAS to be dealing in the
volume space?
Kind Regards,
Ornaith

All the surface vertices are just listed in order. The patch keep
track of which vertex it corresponds to (so you can just use
pial_surface[patch.vno] or something).
The coordinates are documented on our website and are “surface ras”.

Hi Bruce,
Yes I read in the patch the way that you're suggesting and I can
access the vino for the flat map. But how do i know the vertex
number of each vertex in the pial surface? Are they in order ?
Also, what coordinate system is the pial surface in when its read
into FreeSurfer? Is it RAS or surface RAS?
Kind Regards,
Ornaith

Hi Bruce,
Thanks so much for your quick reply, I really appreciate your
help on this.
I don't understand how to recover the vertex index.
In Freeview I can see the vertex index number. When I load in
the data to MATLAB as discussed - the only thing that I have
access to are the coordinates of the vertices - not the vertex
index. How can I recover the vertex indices as well?
Thanks again.
Kind Regards,
Ornaith

Hi Ornaith
The mapping uses the vertex index. That is, the vertex
index is stored in the flatmap, so you should always be
able to recover it, then look up the location of that
vertex on any other surface (of the same hemisphere/subject)
Cheers

Hello FreeSurfer developers,
Thanks a lot for your help. I have initialised the
pialxyz the way you suggested and made the flatmap in
MatLab using the read_patch function (screenshots
attached). I still don't understand how to convert
between the two. For example how to see what point
(x,y,z) on the pial surface corresponds to what (x,y)
point on the flatmap.
Thanks a lot for your help.
Kind Regards,
Ornaith

Hello Freesurfer developers,
I am new to Freesurfer and I'm hoping that someone
can help me.
My goal is to be able to visualise electrodes
contacts that are on lying on the cortical surface
on a flat map and a spherical map.
I've run recon-all and created the flatmap.
I'm using Matlab to achieve this and I've loaded
the information with the lines
lhsphere =
fs_read_surf('/Applications/freesurfer/7.1.1/subjects/IM-0001/surf/lh.sphere');
lhflatpatch=fs_read_patch('/Applications/freesurfer/7.1.1/subjects/IM-0001/surf/lh.full.flat.patch.3D');
1. I want to be able to access the coordinates and
show the electrons on the flat map/ sphere and I
was wondering how to do this? I understand that
the vertex ID number is what relates the
coordinates in the original image to these
surfaces. I am wondering how to access the vertex
ID numbers ? At the moment I think that I only
have access to the vertex coordinates and the
vertex faces.
The easiest way to do this is probably to map the
white or pial xyz into an mgz file using mri_surf2surf, eg
mri_surf2surf --hemi lh --sval-xyz white --tval
lh.white.xyz.mgz --s yoursubject
You can then get the xyz of a given vertex by reading
whitexyz = MRIread('lh.white.xyz.mgz');
2. Additionally, I was wondering if there is a way
to display the surface images through Matlab?
What would be the best way to show the surface
with the electrons overlaid on it?
I know there are ways, but I don't know their details
The version of Freesurfer and the platform that
I'm using is outlined below:
1) FreeSurfer version:
freesurfer-darwin-macOS-7.1.1-20200811-8b40551
2) Platform: macOS High Sierra 10.13.6 (17G7024)
I really appreciate any help with this as I'm
really stuck.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Kind Regards,
Ornaith O'Reilly
