Hi Amelia - Sorry, not that I know of. Perhaps this can be a feature
request for Ruopeng to add to freeview :)

BTW, freeview in 5.3 had a bug with the vector display for some input
image orientations, but this has been fixed in the dev version (that you
can download on the web site).

I installed CentOS 6.6 in a machine without using internet connexion. 
Everything is fine. I would like now to install Freesurfer and Tracula mounting 
a NTFS partition from an external hard disk. also I note that I can not copy 
Freesurfer in a FAT32 partition.

Actually I'm not sure that CentOs recognizes NTFS or FAT32 formats.

Please is there an expert who knows how to mount a NTFS disk using CentOS?

Thanks a lot for your help and your time.

Re: [Freesurfer] assigning 74 Destrieux parcellations into lobes, networks, sensory-motor modalities

I have tools in R that can do #1, and network/graph theory analysis on top of 
that. I plan to work on things like #2-3 but haven't yet (e.g. there is 
possibly less consensus if region X is limbic vs. para-limbic, as opposed to 
temporal vs. parietal).
I can send you something in a few days/a week.

Although, If you read the Destrieux 2010 paper, you will see the regions (in 
the text) separated by lobe, at the least.

Subject: [Freesurfer] assigning 74 Destrieux parcellations into lobes, 
networks, sensory-motor modalities

Dear FreeSurfer community,

I am a statistician who knows shamefully little about brain anatomy and I am 
writing with a request.

I don’t have easy access to Freesurfer and the original data but have the final 
text output i.e., the /stats folder, from a large cohort, which including 
*h.aparc.a2009s.stats.

I have been attempting to assign higher-order labels to the 74 Destrieux 
parcellations.

1) Categorizing uniquely into the 4 lobes: frontal, occipital, parietal, 
temporal;

2) Categorizing uniquely into “types of networks”: limbic, paralimbic, 
unimodal, heteromodal, subcortical, primary;

3) sensory-motor modality: somatosensory, visual, auditory, motor

As far as I understand these higher-order assignments of the 74 parcellations 
are not uncommon although not all cases are clear-cut so some knowledge of 
anatomy is needed (assuming that I am indeed looking at the correct level – 
gyri and sulci in the aparc.a2009s.stats file).

If so, would anyone mind sharing a text file with the correspondence between 
the 74 parcellations and lobes, network types, and/or modality?

I’d be very grateful for any guidance and help.

Thank you kindly,

J Evans

Hello,

Sorry if this isn’t the right forum for the question, but not sure where to 
direct it.

I’m trying to incorporate some FSL commands into a Matlab script. I’m using a 
Linux machine and running Matlab 7.11.0 (2010b). I tried to access the FSL 
toolbox through Matlab using:

setenv(‘FSLDIR’,’/autofs/cluster/pubsw/2/pubsw/Linux-2-2.3-x86_64/packages/fsl.64bit/5.0.7’)
system(‘${FSLDIR}/etc/fslconf/fsl.sh’)

But received a “permissions denied” error. Is there an easier way to access FSL 
through Matlab?

Thanks,

I don't think that will work because the shell where FSLDIR gets set is
not the same shell as that of the system command. Try putting those two
in the same string and then running system on that

Andre, I haven't done any statistical comparison, but for my data (pediatric) I

in superior frontal and rostral middle frontal. Other differences I've seen are 
anterior cingulate, cuneus, and fusiform. See Figure 4 in Klein & Tourville

You're alway so helpful, even on the weekend!

I'm also trying to convert mgz to nii and have been following various

For ease, I  made a separate folder on the desktop with just mgz files in

mri_convert --in_type mgz --out_type nii --out_orientation RAS /mnt/ 
.../desktop/mgz/001/t1.mgz /mnt/ .../t1.nii.gz

I've also tried:
mri_convert /desktop/mgz/001/t1.mgz /desktop/mgz/001/t1.nii.gz

However, neither have worked, saying "mghRead(/desktop/mgz/001/t1.mgz, -1)

Any suggestions?

Hi Andre

it's up to you. The aparc and .aparc.DKTatlas40 are probably pretty
similar, although we haven't looked at the .aparc.DKTatlas40 much. The
aparc.a2009s contains more, smaller parcels, and so is probably less
reliable but might correspond more closely to an anatomical hypothesis you
have.

Re: [Freesurfer] creating a new subject directory using imported data from existing subject directory

2015-08-10 Thread Watson, Christopher
I think it's a bit unclear what you're asking for. Have you followed the 
tutorials on the wiki? Can you post your directory structure?

What I do on my system is keep studies separate from one another. Each study 
directory has its own FS directory, and I keep the raw images separate. So 
something like the following:

.
|-- Study A
|-- DTI
|-- MPRAGE
|-- raw
|-- subj01
|-- subj01_mprage.nii.gz
|-- subj01_DICOMS
|-- subj02
|-- Freesurfer
|-- subj01
|-- subj02
|-- FMRI

...and so on

Hi,
I'm re-posting my query in case it got buried on the listserve:

Dear Freesurfers,
I created a single subject directory and then imported sdata from two separate 
studies, in the end I realized I should have created two subject directories 
and would like to now rectify the situation. My question is, 1) how do I create 
a second subject directory in a different location? and 2) how do I transfer my 
existing subjects' data from my current subject directory to this new subject 
directory without having to redo any of my work (surface reconstruction). Is 
this even possible at this point? Or is it that I should only have one FS 
directory after all and perhaps I should just move the location of this 
directory so it is more accessible for both of my studies? If this is the case, 
could you advise me on how to go about doing this?

BTW I'm using bash shell.
I hope my questions are clear. Thanks!!!

Dear Experts,

With your help, I recalculated the surface area, now using the pial surface 
instead of the wm/gm boundary. I am, however, somewhat surprised by the 
discrepancy between my previous and current results, because the cortical 
surface area that is calculated using the pial is surface is consistently (a 
lot) larger than the SA that was calculated using the WM/GM boundary (please 
see below for an example). While computing the new SA measure, FS also 
automatically calculated both volume and thickness. Since these two measures 
are exactly the same as previously when SA was calculated using the wm/gm 
boundary (as was to be expected), I assume that the calculation of SA using the 
pial surface was correctly executed.

Nonetheless, I am wondering: 1) is such a large difference to be expected, and 
2) what could be a physiological explanation for this discrepancy?

All suggestions are much appreciated!

Best wishes,
Niels Gerrits

For your second, I would say that it is not correct. Again, you should directly 
compare them. Otherwise, what are you basing the conclusion on? What effect 
size difference would you use as a cut-off between a "real" and "not real" 
difference? I think reading the above-mentioned paper will help with this

Sorry, forgot to add one additional (related) question:

is it ever correct to say "for region Y, the activations found for taskA were

Hello all,

I have seen several (older) papers that draw conclusions about the implication

taskB>baseline; therefore, region X is implicated in/essential for the 
cognitive processes underlying taskA, but not also for that underlying taskB; 
in other words, it dissociates between the two tasks.

I believe Nancy Kanwisher addresses this point in a video lecture where she was 
pointing out that the above logic is flawed, and that said conclusion can only 
be drawn if the two tasks are contrasted directly (A>B). Have I understood this 
correctly, and does it ever make any sense to draw inferrences about implicated 
brain regions based on (visually) comparing the list of regions produced by 
contrasts comparing each task to the same baseline (in other words, by noticing 
which brain regions appear in one list, but not in the other)? Or, on the 
contrary, do all statistics and corrections need to be done voxel-wise, which 
is something that is only done when contrasting the two tasks directly?

Many thanks for any opinions.

Dear Freesurfer experts,

In the stats folder of subject in the SUBJECTS_DIR, I found the files of 
lh.aparc.DKTatlas40.stats and lh.aparc.stats. Are there statistical results 
belong to two different atlas? Because the values and brain regions are 
different in these two files.

In these two files, I found the command "mris_anatomical_stats -mgz -cortex 
../label/lh.cortex.label -f ../stats/lh.aparc.stats -b -a 
../label/lh.aparc.annot -c ../label/aparc.annot.ctab NC058 lh white" and 
"mris_anatomical_stats -mgz -cortex ../label/lh.cortex.label -f 
../stats/lh.aparc.DKTatlas40.stats -b -a ../label/lh.aparc.DKTatlas40.annot -c 
../label/aparc.annot.DKTatlas40.ctab NC058 lh white".

So, the atlases are the lh.aparc.annot and lh.aparc.DKTatlas40.stats, 
respectively. Right?
However, when I open these two atlas (attached aparc.annot.ctab and 
aparc.annot.DKTatlas40.ctab), I found the contents are same. In addition, I 
would really want to know that the value in the aparc.annot.ctab. For ex.   1  
bankssts 25 100  400; what does the values mean? 25 100 40 0

[Freesurfer] Graph theory analysis in R

2015-12-14 Thread Watson, Christopher
Dear Freesurfer users, (apologies for cross-post)

I am pleased to announce the release of an R package I created, called 
"brainGraph", for performing graph theory analyses of brain MRI data. You can 
use it for cortical thickness, volume, surface area, or LGI. It can also be 
used for tractography data (I have code that works with the outputs of FSL's 
"probtrackx2"), and it should work for resting-state fMRI as well. It is very 
heavily dependent on the fantastic R package "igraph" (see 
http://igraph.org/redirect.html). I created a GUI for quick and easy data 
exploration, but it isn't quite as polished as others out there (e.g., BrainNet 
Viewer).

For usage, please see the User Guide I put together (direct PDF link: 
https://www.dropbox.com/s/j831n3q9muyz1go/brainGraph_UserGuide.pdf?dl=0 ). You 
will find some code for getting your data into R, and I have documented many 
analysis steps and include multiple figures. I hope this is intuitive for both 
veteran and novice R users. Additionally, there are System Requirements, 
Installation instructions, and links for help learning R.

Some features that should be of interest include:
* bootstrapping & permutation testing
* random graph generation, small-worldness, and global/local/nodal efficiency

You can install it directly in R by typing: install.packages('brainGraph')
My Github page for the package (https://github.com/cwatson/brainGraph) contains 
the development version, and you can install that by typing: 
devtools::install_github('cwatson/brainGraph')
Please see the NEWS.md file 
(https://github.com/cwatson/brainGraph/blob/master/NEWS.md) for updates made 
since the CRAN submission.
To work properly on Windows, you may need to install the devel version.

This is still a work-in-progress, so I am very happy to receive bug reports, 
feature requests, general coding help questions, (constructive) criticism, etc.
Please join the Google Group that I set up for those purposes:

hi

I'm using the dev version of FreeSurfer on 64-bit Fedora 23.


Recon-all runs fine but at the end I see

$ recon-all -s tvb -aparc2aseg
...
  mri_aparc2aseg --s tvb --volmask --aseg aseg.presurf.hypos --DKTatlas40

ERROR: Option --DKTatlas40 unknown


Running that command

$ mri_aparc2aseg --s tvb --volmask --aseg aseg.presurf.hypos

without the --DKTatlas40 appears to run correctly.


Is this just an issue with the dev version or have I done something silly?


thanks,

Re: [Freesurfer] pial surface with FLAIR

2013-04-15 Thread Watson, Christopher
Hi Veronica,
Did you try initially doing "recon-all -i $FLAIR -s $SUBJECT"?
And then, when you do the remaining recon-all steps:

recon-all -autorecon3 -s $SUBJECT -FLAIRpial

It has worked for me. (And worked very well! No edits necessary for the pial 
surface!)

Hello list,
we found the problem, symbolic links:

/home/glerma/ is the home of the app server where fs is installed.
/home/glerma/glerma/freesurfer/subjects was the SUBJECTS_DIR, but it has a sym 
link, since: glerma -> /bcbl/home/home_g-m/glerma
so changing SUBJECTS_DIR to:
/bcbl/home/home_g-m/glerma/freesurfer/subjects
solved the problem.


Do you think this is a problem with fs resolving sym links? We haven't found 
any problem with matlab or fsl.


thanks again!

The strange thing is that other programs work fine with this setup.

Do you think the problem is in the file system config (it seems so) or in FS 
config to be able to work with NFS 4?

I have asked the sys admin for the output of the system-config-nfs, I don't 
have admin privileges to run it.

2) What do the surrounding slices look like? It may be that the WM surface

Two things I was wondering
1) Why do the surfaces shown in the left and right panels disagree? (The right

2) Do I need to edit the white matter? It seems unreasonable to have +8mm thick

Dear freesurfers,

I would like a second eye on my decision to edit wm.mgz. I think that the 
boundary between the gray and the white is unrealistic (e.g. Coronal.png). 
Furthermore, there is a discrepancy between -surfs and -surfs -aseg (e.g. 
attached coronal_aseg.png).

If I indeed need to edit these slices, which way is more preferable, adding 
voxels or control points?

Thank you very much!

Dear FreeSurfer Experts

As in some other posts, I have also observed some differences between the two

Ritobrato Datta, Ph.D. on 18 march.

 But I also observed some differences in volume of right / left thalami. Did 
anybody observe such asymmetry??
I am now running analysis with patients and controls on data from 5.2.0 and got 
surprised with this asymmetry.

Here I am showing the average I obtained:

R PALLIDUM  L PALLIDUM   R THAL L THAL  RH_CUNEUS   
LH_CUNEUS
5.1 (350 SUBJECTS)  15801688 6701   6970.31 1.845   1.857

5.2 (115 SUBJECTS, subgroup of 350) 151913676520
74012.422.40

Is there any approach to correct it on 5.2 ??

Hi,

I have successfully run recon-all in my dataset
and now am attempting to use trac-all on my diffusion data
obtained on a Siemens scanner.

Diffusion dicoms were transformed to .nii using MRIConverter
and then to .mnc using

nii2mnc output.nii output_t.mnc.

I am trying to run trac-all on a single subject and for this I
have created the configuration file attached (tracula02ST)

As you can see the SUBJECTS_DIR is /home/dsoto/Documents/fmri/rsdtianawmgui
and within each subject the T1 serving as input for recon-all are in
mri/orig

while the diffusion images are in a folder call diffdata (named
output_t.mnc)
which also contains the bvecs and bvals files, which were transposed and
organised
according to the tutorial (named as bvecs_t.txt and bvals_t.txt)

When I run:
trac-all -c tracula02ST.txt

I get:
ERROR: no analysis step (-{prep,bedp,path}) has been selected

THEN I run:
trac-all -prep -bedp -path -c tracula02ST.txt which runs for 5 seconds or so
and then gives the long output text below with an error message.

Segmentation fault (core dumped)
foreach: No match.

The trac-all.log is attached also.

Could you please help?

Cheers

David

A. You should overlay the tracts on the subject's FA (see example command line 
on wiki)
B. Check the mailing list archives about reinitializing tracts. That should 
improve the results here. You don't need to reinitialize the tracts that are

Hi Christopher,

Thanks a lot for such a prompt reply.

I know I should overlay the tracts of the FA image, but I just wanted to show 
you how small the reconsctrutions were.

I don't think this is particularly noisy data.

I'm trying to find solutions on the mailing list archives by typing 
"reinitializing tracts Tracula" but I haven't found much information.

Would you kindly suggest me a few that provide solutions to this problem or 
make some recommendations yourself?

Thanks again,

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to figure out whether two surfaces which appear identical in 
freeview are indeed identical. Using diff shows the files are not, but since 
they're binary, I can't tell whether this difference is simply due to header

indeed differ.   Is there a FreeSurfer command that can be used to determine 
this?

The problem here is that SZ*.nii presumably refers to a list of files due to

only the first file in the list, or all files), but that command probably won't

Re: [Freesurfer] Questions about correction over 2 hemispheres and MCC

2012-07-20 Thread Watson, Christopher
Hi Doug et al,

The 2nd question is something I've wondered about. Doesn't a Bonferroni 
correction assume that the measures are independent? 
If so, I think in the case of subcortical structures, it is incorrect to use 
this method, as e.g. the putamen and pallidal volumes are not independent of 
one another.
If not, and it is acceptable to use when there are dependencies between 
measures, how do you calculate the FWE? It wouldn't be equal to alpha/n, unless 
I am misunderstanding something.

Thanks,
Chris

Hi Reem, it looks like you've done everything correctly (sorry for the

putamen, pallidum, hippocampus, and amygdala were all 0.75 or higher.

I would think that a Bonferroni correction would be incredibly conservative 
and, in my opinion, just plain wrong because true significant diff's would be 
missed. Is there any principled way of dealing with multiple tests that are 
correlated?

Thanks,
Chris

Hi Chris,

bonferroni will be overly conservative in that case, but we rarely really
know the true covariance structure of the data, so we would rather err on
the side of being conservative.

I have not seen this problem before, but does it occur only when you rerun

Re: [Freesurfer] TRACULA some fiber volumes being too small

2012-10-18 Thread Watson, Christopher
There were recently a few messages on the list regarding this.
What you should do is include "set reinit=1" in your config file, and then run
trac-all -priors -c $CONFIG
trac-all -path -c $CONFIG

Make sure you only include the pathway of interest in the config file; 
otherwise, it will re-run the analysis for all 18.
That has worked for me most of the time.

Dear Freesurfer/Tracula users,
Finally I could successfully test Tracula and I think it is amazing what it can 
do automatically. These are the commands I used:

export FREESURFER_HOME=${HOME}/Programs/freesurfer_510 && source

trac-all -bedp -c

All finished without errors, but there seems to be a problem with CC Forceps 
Mayor volume, which gave very small values. Is this OK or I made some mistake? 
First I tested with some patient and other fiber tracks also gave very small 
volumes. I attached some pictures and the dmrirc and trac-all log files.

Hi Surfers,

I was wondering if FreeSurfer v5.1.0 (CentOS 4 x86 (64b)) or V5.X will work on 
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6?

The reason I ask is that the supercomputer at Brigham Young University is going 
through a major overhaul: changing the OS, adding more nodes, and adding more 
storage.

I am just curious what type of problems I will run into. I know I will need to 
rerun all brains through the new system but more concerning to me is if I can 
run FreeSurfer at all on the new system.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions or insights you can offer.

Hi Bruce,
What if she created an FSGD file, and instead of just having "patients" and

Hi Anri - This is not a command itself, it's an option of the trac-all command. 
So you need to run:
trac-all -qa -c the_name_of_your_configuration_file

Or, if you just run the entire preprocessing:
trac-all -prep -c the_name_of_your_configuration_file
then the motion QA measures will be computed by default as one of the many 
steps of the preprocessing.

You can run "trac-all" without any arguments to see usage information on all 
the the different options.

Hope this helps,

Re: [Freesurfer] Clarification on centos version/updates/patches

Hi Nick,
So would you recommend I install Centos 6 on the new workstation?
In addition, I've run recon-all on a large study group (>100); I take it I'll 
have to re-run all of them?

Thanks,
Chris



Chris,

yes, the centos5 build freesurfer 5.1 will work on centos6 (we use it
in-house).  when the v5.2 release of freesurfer is ready (hopefully at
the end of may) you will want to use the centos6 build, as it will get a
bit better performance because of the compiler and some openmp options.

[Freesurfer] mri_convert and image orientation; Analyze format

2008-09-17 Thread Watson, Christopher
Hello Freesurfers,
Lately I've been scratching my head about image orientation problems. What I do 
here is take the DICOM images and use mri_convert to convert them into SPM 
Analyze format. The command I use is:

mri_convert.x86_64.dev -dicomread2 "$experiment" --nskip ${nskip} \
"path/to/subj/dir/image" --out_type spm

So the output files we get are imageXXX.{hdr,img,mat}. So, I assume these truly 
are Analyze format and not NIfTI (if i'm incorrect please tell me, this would 
be very important). There are weird things SPM does concerning image 
orientation, so it's *very* important that I get this right (we do functional 
imaging on surgery candidates):

*Does mri_convert flip the images in any way?*

That is, if my DICOM images are in radiological convention, will the imageXXX 
images still be in radiological convention? I've been searching far and wide 
and have hit a wall. With patients, we can see the water pill on the right side 
of the forehead easily, but with the EPI functional images for our research 
subjects it's pretty much impossible to tell.

Thanks very much,
Chris Watson

[Freesurfer] mri_convert: DICOM to nifti - multiple frames

2008-09-25 Thread Watson, Christopher
Hi, I'm interested in getting multiple nifti images for each time point, 
similar to this old thread:
http://www.mail-archive.com/freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/msg03317.html

i.e., for a scan of 5 minutes and TR = 3, I would like 100 separate nifti 
images. This works fine when I set --out_type spm, but I'd like to start using 
the nifti format. The command I use:

mri_convert.x86_64.dev -dicomread2 i545236.MRDC.1 -ot nifti1 "$SUBJ_DIR/image"

only creates one file - image.nii. Is there a newer version of mri_convert that 
can do what I'm looking for? Here's the info:

RE: [Freesurfer] Manual edits to aseg.mgz/brainmask.mgz

2007-11-06 Thread Watson, Christopher
The acquisitions are SPGRs, taken on either a GE 3T or 1.5T (I'm not exactly 
sure, I'm new to the job). Yea, in a lot of areas the dura is adjacent to the 
grey matter. Those are certainly the problem areas - in most other areas the 
segmentation is excellent. I'm not sure of the resolution.

Hi Chris,

what type of acquisition are you using? Dura can be really hard to deal 
with, as it can look just like gm, depending on your MR parameters, and 
it is can also be physically adjacent to gm. That said, it's only usually a 
problem in localized areas. What resolution is your data? We have some 
newer sequences and code that avoid the dura, but they are by no means 
standard (and we only have them for Siemens).

Bruce

I've never had any problems with CentOS 4.x; I have had some with CentOS 5, but 
that was only when trying to run tksurfer, and that's really only because I

At the command prompt, type 'screen' and press enter.  This opens the terminal 
emulation program, aptly named screen.  In this new terminal, start your recon 
as you would normally, whether that's invoking a script of your making or 
typing in the standard 'recon -all '.  Once the job starts, either close 
the terminal window or press Ctrl-A followed by 'd'.  This detaches the screen 
session but safely keeps the  reconstruction pipeline going.

When you get back to your desk, type 'screen -r' at the command prompt to 
reattach to the screen session you created previously.  A new terminal will 
open and will contain all the output from the recon pipeline. Good luck.

You can make it work with nohup? In the past I've had trouble and my thinking 
was that because recon-all starts many child processes, the  currently 
continues after the terminal is closed, but any subsequent process can't start. 
 That's why I've been using screen, but YMMV.

Hi All,

I'm running freesurfer on a public station, so I need to sign out when I'm 
finished with sessions.  Has anyone found a suitable way to run freesurfer in 
the background?  I know that I can run matlab in the background here, so if 
there is a way to run the pipeline through matlab that may work... Thanks,

Nathan
