Re: [Freesurfer] cortical/subcortical volume based analysis
Hi Paul if you use a property (like gm) to drive intersubject registration it then becomes difficult to also analyze it. If your warp was truly perfect you could just analyze the properties of the warp, but even then it is hard to localize effects (e.g. if you changed the smoothness of the warp field would the effect move somewhere else?). If the warp is not perfect then some of the effect is in your warp and some in the residual anatomical differences. There are lots of caveats like this you have to worry about. It's the reason we drive our spherical warp with the ?h.white surface. It is invariant to gm atrophy and so can be used to assess it without worrying about this kind of thing cheers Bruce On Fri, 13 Oct 2017, miracle ozzoude wrote: Hello Bruce, Thank you for the response.

[Freesurfer] lta_convert does not produce ITK transforms that are correctly applied by antsApplyTransforms
Hi, I've used `bbregister` to generate a transform `bold2T1.lta` from `bold.nii` to `T1.mgz` (assume we have a `T1.nii` as well for the sake of ANTs). The following produces a well-aligned output: mri_convert --apply_transform bold2T1.lta bold.nii bold_space-T1.nii As does the following: lta_convert --inlta bold2T1.lta --outfsl bold2T1.mat c3d_affine_tool -ref T1.nii -src bold.nii bold2T1.mat -fsl2ras -oitk bold2T1.txt antsApplyTransforms -i bold.nii -r T1.nii -o bold_space-T1.nii -t bold2T1.txt However, if one skips the FSL step, the registration is quite far off: lta_convert --inlta bold2T1.lta --outitk bold2T1.txt antsApplyTransforms -i bold.nii -r T1.nii -o bold_space-T1.nii -t bold2T1.txt Comparing the ITK transform files: LTA-FSL-ITK #Insight Transform File V1.0 #Transform 0 Transform: MatrixOffsetTransformBase_double_3_3 Parameters: 0.9895096215486424 0.011126830936108464 -0.00042204653562094823 -0.01079971161879626 0.872329255299452 -0.42602926756857834 -0.004755964529051335 0.42420535065804454 0.8878552541301569 -1.3066136395454464 -45.60342165876236 -43.10584860730749 FixedParameters: 0 0 0 LTA-ITK #Insight Transform File V1.0 #Transform 0 Transform: AffineTransform_double_3_3 Parameters: 0.98950976133346558 0.011126830242574215 -0.00042204943019896746 -0.010799713432788849 0.87232941389083862 -0.42602935433387756 -0.0047559700906276703 0.42420542240142822 0.88785547018051147 -2.2848172187805176 -2.9065067768096924 11.744022369384766 FixedParameters: 0 0 0 To 5 significant digits, these are the same, except the last three (translation) parameters.

Re: [Freesurfer] cortical/subcortical volume based analysis
Hello Bruce, Thank you for the response. I was able to look into CVS command and I wrote a command on how to register each subjects to cvs_avg35_inMNI152 template using the following: mri_cvs_register --mov subID --mni /Application/freesurfer/subjects/cvs_avg35_inMNI152/T1.mgz --step1 --step2 --step3 --outdir $SUBJECTS_DIR/$subID/cvs --asegfname aparc+aseg --openmp 8. Do i need to use the T1 in the mri folder or mri.2mm folder when performing mri_cvs_register? My next goals are to: 1) sample the volumes created using mri_cvs_register to the cvs_avg35_inMNI152 template using mri_vol2vol -reg . -which of the outputs from mri_cvs_register should i use to achieve? final_CVSmorphed_toTEMPLATE_norm.mgz,final_CVSmorph_toTEMPLATE.m3z, or final_CVSmorphed_toTEMPLATE_aseg.mgz 2)Use a cortical+subcortical mask from cvs_avg35_inMNI152 to smooth the output from mri_vol2vol. - How can I create the cortical mask from the cvs_avg35_inMNI152/mri.2mm folder? This is because the folder already has a subcortical mask and I want to create a cortical mask, combine both (using mri_merge) and use it to smooth with 8mm. 3) Lastly, use mri_concat to combine the smoothened maps in order to perform group level analysis on them. - when performing mri_glmfit on the combined maps, i don't need to specify the --surf fsaverage and lh/rh flags because it is a volume based analysis and it was done on MNI template not fsaverage?
