Re: [Freesurfer] freesurfer problem report
Hi Zeke, When I enter the commands $> cd /media/sf_E_DRIVE/output/nv001/mri $> mri_nu_correct.mni --n 1 --proto-iters 1000 --distance 50 --no-rescale --i orig.mgz --o orig_nu.mgz The output is in the attached file 1.txt. However, if I keep the subjects_dir (/usr/local/freesurfer/subjects) as default, there is no error information (attached file 2. log). The attached file 3.log is the file I changed the subjects_dir to /media/sf_E_DRIVE/output. This problem confused me several days. I also used other computers (install VirtualboxXubuntu 12.04stable v5.3.015 Aug 2013freesurfer-Virtualbox-linux-x86-stable-pub-v5.3-full.vdi.gz9.0G ) and came across the same problem.

[Freesurfer] Question about the outputs of recon-all
Dear Freesurfer experts, I am a new user of freesurfer and I just performed recon-all analyses. I have some questions about the pipeline (may be very simple ^_^). In the fMRI, I used SPM8 toolkit to perform preprocessing. After normalization, the images were transform to the MNI space. In the freesurfer, there are many folders in the output subject dir, e.g., bem, mri, script, surf. The first question, were the recon-all analyses performed in the individual spave (I mean, unlike spm or other software, there is no normalization procedure in freesurfer)? If in the individual space, we should transform all subjects' files into a common space for group-level analysis. How can I transform them? Did I transfrom these into MNI space or other space? In the fswiki, I have known that there is a fsaverage space. So, the second question is that what is the fsaverage space and what is the aim to introduce such space. Can I regard fsaverage space as a intermediate between individual space and MNI space? Further, in the recon-all analysis, there is a procedure of talairach transformation. Were the outputs transformed into talairach space? Any help will be greatly appreciately!

Re: [Freesurfer] Question about the outputs of recon-all
Hi, Douglas Thanks for your reply. So, as you stated, the fsaverage is already in the MNI space? Because my fMRI data are in the MNI space (after normalization) and I want to extract the region with significant different cortical thickness as seed to calculate functional connectivity. Best, Feng 发件人:Douglas N Greve 发送时间:2015-08-12 22:39 主题:Re: [Freesurfer] Question about the outputs of recon-all 收件人:"freesurfer" 抄送: fsaverage is the surface-based common-space analogous to talairach for MNI space. This is the space where group analysis is done on the surface. You can run mris_preproc to get a stack of data in fsaverage space prior to running group analysis with mri_glmfit.

[Freesurfer] Is the fsaverage in the MNI space?
Dear freesurfer experts, The freesurfer online manual stated that before group analysis, we should resample data onto the common space (fsaverage). I have three questions here. First, Is the fsaverage file in the MNI space? In some previous studies, they report significant clusters with MNI coordinates. So, I would like to know whether this "common space" is equal to MNI space. Second, what does resample mean? Normalization--register the surf data to the fsaverage space? In my experience, I just used resample to change the voxel size in the volume data (e.g., before 1*1*1, after 3*3*3). The final question is that the fsaverage file is generated from my data or just a prior template? Thanks in advance.

[Freesurfer] Query about transformations in the recon-all
Dear Freesurfer experts, I have some questions in the recon-all. After reading online manual and discussing with the experts in the maillist, I have known all the recon-all procedures performed in the individual native space. However, I very confuse that there are many transformations in the recon-all, e.g., 1. talairach transformation (This computes the affine transform from the orig volume to the MNI305 atlas using the MINC program mritotal (see Collins, et al, 1994) through a FreeSurfer script called talairach), why I need transform from native space to MNI305; 2. EM (GCA) Registration (Computes transform to align the mri/nu.mgz volume to the default GCA atlas found in FREESURFER_HOME/average). What is the GCA atlas? what is the usage of this atlas? 3. CA Register (Computes a nonlinear transform to align with GCA atlas. Creates the file mri/transform/talairach.m3z). Why we should align with GCA atlas? This transform is nonlinear, and what is the transform in the EM (GCA) Registration (Affine? 12 dof?); 4. EM Registration, with Skull (Computes transform to align volume mri/nu_noneck.mgz with GCA volume possessing the skull); Is there any detailed documentation in the online manual to introduce these transformation? Could anyone give me a website? Any help would be greatly appreciate.

[Freesurfer] Questions about the correction methods in Surfstat
Dear Surfstat Users, I have a question about the RFT correction method in the Surfstat(http://www.math.mcgill.ca/keith/surfstat/). In the online manual, the command to perform RFT correction is as follows: [ pval, peak, clus ] = SurfStatP( slm, mask ); pval.P contains P-values for peaks, and pval.C contains P-values for clusters. This special structure is recognised by SurfStatView which draws the figure in a special way: SurfStatView( pval, avsurf, 'Males-females removing age' ); The output figure is attached. In the colorbar of the figure, left represents cluster corrected p value and right one represents the vertex corrected p value, right? So, the warm color region in the figure can be survived by the RFT vertex correction, and the cool color region in the figure can be survived by the RFT cluster correction, right? If so, the regions with either warm or cool color region that can be survived after correction. When I report the results, I can report the regions with warm color (vertex level correction) or report the regions with cool color (cluster level correction), right? In addtion, how can I understand the region overlapped by the warm and cool color (like he postier cingulate cortex), can simultaneously pass double correction of vertex level and cluster level? The final question is about the RFT cluster correction method, in the SPM or other software (like REST). Generally, on the cluster level correction, you should be based on a voxel (vertex) uncorrected height threshold of e.g. p<0.001 combined with a RFT-correlated cluster threshould of e.g., p<0.05, right? What is the detailed correction procedure in the Surfstat software? Any help would be greatly appreciate.

[Freesurfer] Question about the raw thickness range
Dear Freesurfer experts, I have two question about my freesurfer results. 1. I performed recon-all analyses on my data and found all the data's maximal value of cortical thickness is 5. Is there any standardization procedure in the recon-all that normalize the maximum value to 5? In addition, is there any lower bound (non-zero value) for cortical thickness 2. Before group analysis, I run the recon-all subject -qcache and generate the resampled and smoothed data. The online manual stated "When you have run recon-all with the -qcache option, recon-all will resample data onto the average subject (fsaverage) and smooth it at various FWHM (full-width/half-max), usually 0, 5, 10, 10, 20, and 25mm. This can speed later processing. The data for this tutorial have been cached, so run: mris_preproc --fsgd gender_age.fsgd \ --cache-in thickness.fwhm10.fsaverage \ --target fsaverage --hemi lh \ --out lh.gender_age.thickness.10.mgh Since I have resampled the data to fsaverage by using -qcache option, what is the function of the option --target fsaverage ? resample again? If so, could I remove the option --target fsaverage in the mris_preproc?

Hi, Bruce I may find the reason. Actually, I can load the file into freeview. My colleagure can read this file using MRIread on Linux system but I failed using the Windows system.

[Freesurfer] Question about the multiple comparison correction in FreeSurfer
Dear Freesurfer experts, I have some questions about the multiple comparison correction method for group analysis in Freesurfer. The manual stated that we could use the commands as follows: mri_glmfit-sim \ --glmdir lh.gender_age.glmdir \ --cache 4 neg \ --cwp 0.05\ --2spaces This is the alphasim correction, right? When I write this command in terminal, there are detailed explanations about this command. In the above-mentioned command, I used parameter "--cache threshold sign". In this way, a precomputed Z Monte Carlo simulation (--cache) was used. Also, I can run my own simulation by using "--sim mc-z iterations threshold". However, I find an interesting parameter "--grf threshold sign". I would like to know whether this parameter could give me another correction method rather than alphasim, i.e. the gaussian random field correction method? In other words, if I add the parameter "grf", then the mri_glmfit-sim performs the GRF correction; if I do not add this parameter, then mri_glmfit-sim performs alphasim correction, right? Another question is about the parameter "--2spaces : adjust p-values for two hemispheres", I give an example here. I want to perform cluster-level correction of p<0.05 based on vertex-wise thershold of 4 (p < .0001) for the left hemisphere; and perform the same correction for the right hemisphere. So, I should add the parameter "--2spaces". Is this equal to perform cluster-level correction of p<0.025 (0.05/2, if I also want to examine the subcortical diferences, then the cluster p value should be 0.05/3) based on vertex-wise thershold of 4 (p < .0001). Have I understood correctly? The third question is that could I perform False discovery rate (FDR) using commands rather than GUI? If not, could I load the sig.mgh file into MatLab and then perform FDR correction manually? In addition to the aforementioned multiple comparison correction method, is there other correction method in Freesurfer?

[Freesurfer] How could I display the tksurfer correctly
Dear Freesurfer experts, I use Oracle VM VirtualBox to run Freesurfer software and I want to perform FDR correction in TKSurfer. However, I cannot get the whole window size (attached 1.png), and thus I cannot find the FDR option. Actually, there are lots of options (2.png) cannot be displayed in 1.png. I try to change the window resolution, but I failed because now is the max resolution. Could anyone give me some suggestions?

Re: [Freesurfer] Question about the multiple comparison correction in FreeSurfer
Hi, Douglas Thanks for your reply. I have two further questions here. First, I know that --grf is gaussian random fields for the volume (not surface). Could the Monte Carlo simulation such as "--cache 4 neg" be used for correction on volume? Because the manual introduces this method for the correction on surface, and thus I do not whether this method could be used on volume. Second, in the Monte Carlo simulation on surface "--cache 4 neg", I can specify the sign (neg for negative, pos, or abs). However, in the grf correction, there are "--grf 3 pos or neg ". Could I specify the sign "abs" such as "--grf 3 abs".

[Freesurfer] Query about the fsgd file and glm model in freesurfer
Dear freesurfer experts, I have some questions about the statistical model in freesurfer. In my experiments, I would like to compare the cortical thickness of two groups (schizophrenia patients and healthy controls) with age and sex as covariates. I want to know that the variable in fsgd file must be continuous covariate? Could the fsgd file like this (attached fsgd1.png): There are two classes and two columns of age and sex variables in the fsgd file. Now, there are six regressors. Regressor 1: ones for subjects in Group SCH, 0 otherwise; Regressor 2: ones for subjects in Group HC, 0 otherwise; Regressor 3: age for subjects in Group SCH , 0 otherwise; Regressor 4: age for subjects in Group HC, 0 otherwise. Regressor 5: sex for subjects in Group SCH, 0 otherwise. Regressor 6: sex for subjects in Group HC, 0 otherwise. If I want to compare the cortical thickness of two groups and regress out the effect of age and sex, the contrast is 1 -1 0 0 0 0. Or I must put it in this way (attached fsgd2.png): There are four classes and one column of age variable in the fsgd file. Now, there are eight regressors. Regressor 1: ones for SCHmale subjects, 0 otherwise. Regressor 2: ones for SCHfemale subjects, 0 otherwise. Regressor 3: ones for HCmale subjects, 0 otherwise. Regressor 4: ones for HCfemale subjects, 0 otherwise. Regressor 5: age for SCHmale subjects, 0 otherwise. Regressor 6: age for SCHfemale subjects, 0 otherwise. Regressor 7: age for HCmale subjects, 0 otherwise. Regressor 8: age for HCfemale subjects, 0 otherwise. If I want to compare the cortical thickness of two groups and regress out the effect of age and sex, the contrast is 0.5 0.5 -0.5 -0.5 0 0 0 0. Which one is right, or both of them are right? If just the latter is right, what is the rationale behind this? Why treat continuous and discrete variables differently here. In the general linear model Y = XB+U, X is a matrix that might be a design matrix, B is a matrix containing parameters and U is a matrix containing errors or noise. Why we cannot treat the age and sex equally in the GLM of freesurfer software?

Re: [Freesurfer] .mgh file not load into surfstats
Hi, Myriam Actually, you do not need to convert a .mgh file to a .obj file, just use the SurfStatReadData function rather than SurfStatReadSurf. In addition, you can use load_mgh or MRIread function (Matlab function) in Freesurfer to read the mgh file. For the error "using + Matrix dimensions must agree", I guess that the recon-all analyses were conducted in the subject native space, and the number of vertices in left/right hemi is different. You should first resample your data to the standard space (here, it's fsaverage space). Hope these helps.

[Freesurfer] The range of value of the area file
Dear Freesurfer experts, I read the raw area file and the area resampled to the fsaverage space and found several interesting things. raw58l = read_curv('E:\fs_result\NC058\surf\lh.area'); % the range of the area value is [-0.0471 6.2118] raw58r = read_curv('E:\fs_result\NC058\surf\rh.area'); % the range of the area value is [0 6.8963] raw59l = read_curv('E:\fs_result\NC059\surf\lh.area'); % the range of the area value is [-0.3347 5.4892] raw59r = read_curv('E:\fs_result\NC059\surf\rh.area'); % the range of the area value is [-1818 5.4269] The first question, what is the unit of the area file in the surf folder (such as lh.area), mm2? Why the minimal value of the area can be less than zero?

I find --grf pos and --grf neg, but not --grf abs. My first question is, is the --grf just used for ONE-side correction? For instance, we can test, are the FCs of patients larger than that of healthy controls or smaller than the healthy controls? If I want to test the difference of FCs between patients and healthy controls, how do i do that? Please help me to check the following commands i used to do the TWO-sides correction (for example. voxel-wise p: 0.05, cluster-wise p: 0.05): mri_glmfit-sim --glmdir g2v0 --grf 1.3 pos --cwp .05 mri_glmfit-sim --glmdir g2v0 --grf 1.3 neg --cwp .05 Then i use the following commands to combine the 'pos' and 'neg' results together mri_convert grf.th1.3.neg.sig.cluster.mgh grf.th1.3.neg.sig.cluster.nii.gz mri_convert grf.th1.3.pos.sig.cluster.mgh grf.th1.3.pos.sig.cluster.nii.gz fslmaths grf.th1.3.pos.sig.cluster.nii.gz -add grf.th1.3.neg.sig.cluster.nii.gz grf.th1.3.sig.cluster.nii.gz Finally, i think the result grf.th1.3.sig.cluster.nii.gz is what i want, which is the difference between patients and healthy controls with GRF corrected, with vertex-wise p< 0.05 and cluster-wise p<0.05. Is it right? 2. The other question is, If i do the two-sides GRF correction(vertex-wise p<0.05 and cluster-wise p<0.05) with 'pos' or 'neg', should the vertex-wise or cluster-wise be 0.05/2 and 0.05/2? or 0.05 and 0.05? for example, we should write like this mri_glmfit-sim --glmdir g2v0 --grf -log10(0.05/2) pos --cwp 0.05/2 mri_glmfit-sim --glmdir g2v0 --grf -log10(0.05/2) neg --cwp 0.05/2 3. If i want to do cluster-based FDR correction, is there any FS command to do it? is it right if i load the statistic p map into MATLAB and do the FDR correction, then i use 'mri_volcluster --minsizevox' to threshold it to remove voxels smaller than the cluster size i set.

[Freesurfer] Query about the calculation of surface area
Dear Freesurfer experts, I have a question about the calculation of surface area. The cortical thickness is the distance between the pial and white matter. But, what about the surface area? Calculation based on pial or white matter? Or average the area of both of them. Is the area of each vertex obtained by the average the area of triangles surrounding the vertex? In addition, where can I find the definition of meancurv, gauscurv, foldind, curvind? I do not find it in the fswiki.

Thanks a lot, Bruce If I want to compare the surface area between the patients and healthy control groups, which area file should I use? The area or the area.pial? Or I should compare both of them?

Re: [Freesurfer] Query about the calculation of surface area
I thought that we calculate the Surface area, MeanCurv, GausCurv, FoldInd and CurvInd in each vertex, and thus we can obtain the whole map on the surface. Subsequently, using the predefined atlas, we can further obtain the mean and std value in each brain region (because each vertex has a value). It looks like you do not calculate surface area and other measures in the aforementioned way, right? From your words, it may be that the surface area is the summation of each vertex's area in each region, right? In contrast, for thickness, you compute the mean thickness across all the vertics. And of coz, I can compute the total thickness in each region like the area (summation of each vertex's thickness in each region), right?
