[Freesurfer] rcbf-prep outputting negative values
Hello, I have pcASL data from a Siemens 3T scanner which I would like to process using the provided rcbf-prep command. The process completes smoothly without error. However when I inspect my roi.dat file, I observe that all the ROI values are actually negative, and seem to be beyond physiological CBF range (~60-120 ml/100g/min). The roi.dat file is pasted below. Would there be any reason to suspect that the tag-control subtraction might be running inverted? I was trying to find a way to customize the command, but seems like there’s no option to specifying the order of tag and control. Any help would be appreciated!

Re: [Freesurfer] rcbf-prep outputting negative values
I'm not sure that anyone is maintaining this code any more. However, you can try running mri_convert --nskip 1 asl.nii asl.skip.nii and then use asl.skip.nii as input. This just removes the 1st frame so that the tag/control will be in the expected order doug On 10/22/2014 10:29 AM, Asif Jamil wrote: > Hello, > > I have pcASL data from a Siemens 3T scanner which I would like to > process using the provided rcbf-prep command.

[Freesurfer] Aparc stats with different input
Hi, I have a PET volume that is registered to a recon, then projected to the surface via vol2surf. I would like to pull stats for the PET using aparc regions. Should I use mri_annotation2label, then pull stats for each label? Or is there something similar to mri_segstats, ie. --annot lh.aparc.annot --in pet_surf.mgz --ctab-default --sum stats.table ?

[Freesurfer] Creating an ROI mask for Cortical Thickness Analysis
Hello Freesurfer’s I am trying to look at the cortical thickness for a specific ROI on the cortical surface (Primary Auditory Cortex: transverse temporal gyri). I found a specific tutorial (https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/VolumeRoiCorticalThickness) however the tutorial assumes I already have an ROI mask created. I was wondering if anyone had any tips on creating an ROI for the cortical surface from the parcellation/annotation files. I know you can “hand-draw” ROI’s in tkmedit or freeview but I would prefer something less subjective that doesn’t rely on my untrained eye and unsteady hand! Thanks in advance.
