The final posteriors are used in two ways. To get the "hard" segmentation we 
simply assign each voxel the label corresponding to the maximum posteriors in 
that location.

To get our volume estimates we divide the volume of each voxel between the 
labels proportionately to the posteriors. Essentially this is just multiplying 
the posteriors by the volume of a voxel and summing across voxels.

If you are doing this with the output posteriors you may need check that the 
posteriors sum to 1 in each voxel. i.e. they haven't been renormalised for 
visualisation and you have the posteriors for labels outside of the thalamus 
which are also modelled during the segmentation.

Thanks for your answer!
I’ve output posterior probabilities and got 25 heat maps (.mgz files) for 
thalamic nuclei. However, I do not know the standard you use to generate the 
volume measurements of individual thalamic nuclei. Could you explain it? Can I 
apply this standard to heat maps I’ve got and output .mgz/.nii file of each 
nuclei for further analysis?

The Pt is one of a few nuclei that can sometimes not make it into the final 
visualisation (others being the Pc and Vm). For these very small nuclei, their 
posterior probabilities (soft segmentation) generated by the Bayesian 
segmentation algorithm sometimes don't "win" any voxels so they don't show up 
in the "hard" segmentation (ThalamicNuclei.v13.T1.mgz) where we display the 
labels with the voxelwise maximum posterior. However, we generate the volume 
measurements from the posteriors rather than the hard segmentation so we can 
give volume estimates for these nuclei.

If you would like to visualise the likely locations of these nuclei you can 
output the posterior probabilities to get a heat map by running the 
segmentation after setting the WRITE_POSTERIORS environmental variable.  (eg. 
in bash > export WRITE_POSTERIORS=1)

SUBJECT: segmentation of thalamic nuclei error: some thalamic subregions are 
not shown in image of ThalamicNuclei.v13.T1.mgz

Hello FreeSurfer Developers,

I’ve segmented thalamic nuclei via thalamic nuclei atlas and gained volume 
result of 25 subregions of each thalamus, but some subregions (eg. Right Pt) 
cannot be shown by load ThalamicNuclei.v13.T1.mgz in freeview.  I'm attempting 
to use this thalamic nuclei atlas for functional ROIs analysis, using other 
softwares (eg.SPM). Could you provide .nii file of this atlas? Or can you help 
me show this missed thalamic subregions? Or how can I transform the file of 
thalamic nuclei atlas in FreeSurfer pipeline to .nii file.


 I've searched the list and no similar errors have been reported. Does anyone 
have any thoughts on how to trouble-shoot this one?
1) FreeSurfer version: freesurfer-Linux-ubuntu20_x86_64-7.3.2
2) Platform: Ubuntu Release 20.04.6 (focal)
