Thanks. I am asking Neuromorphometrics to see if they are willing to give the 
detailed information.

In fact, I am comparing Freesurfer with vol2Brain. However, they are using the 
Neuromorphometrics protocol and thus didn't run this comparison in their 
original paper. Therefore, I don't know how much of a systematic error I would 
expect if I do this. I am mostly interested in the ICV, and volumes of white 
matter, grey matter and subcortical structures. Therefore, I wonder if the 
protocol difference only occurs in more subtle structures or universal across 
all structures.

Yes, that can definitely be the case. Some boundaries are not visible (in e.g. 
the accumbens) and so the border is defined by geometric means. Other times the 
definition of what is in or not in a structure can change (e.g. is the fimbria 
part of the hippocampal label?)

Thanks, Bruce.

Actually, I am comparing the volume computations between different segmentation 
tools. In some software's paper, they mentioned there is a slight difference in 
protocol from Freesurfer and thus not easy to compare. I am wondering what the 
difference lies in, for example, in the way a structure is defined 
anatomically, or something else?

I am new to this field, and don't know if my question is clear to you.

Thanks again.

Hi Ruifeng

I think they are similar, but you would have to ask Neuromorphometrics about 
the differences. Our protocol was published in the Neuron 2002 paper and the 
papers it cites, which I think is also where the Neuromorphometrics’ protocol 
came from

Cheers
Bruce

Is Freesurfer using Neuromorphometrics’ General Segmentation Protocol, or 
something different?

What are the differences between different protocols?

Thanks!
