Hi Bruce, Thanks for your quick reply. Unfortunately the images are more than 10 years old and have only been stored on our systems in analyze format. I'm trying to source the original DAT tapes, but thought I'd try to fix the problem without them. In the main I was puzzled that tkmedit reads the

You can take the min of the two maps (mri_concat with --min option). For correcting for multiple comparisons, you can apply the simulations results to the resulting map (just make sure to use positive (pos) when running the simulation). doug Derek Huffman wrote: > Hello FreeSurfer Team, > > I

[Freesurfer] Between-Groups Analysis Question

2009-11-02 Thread Derek Huffman
Hello FreeSurfer Team, I am in the process of running a between-groups analysis in FreeSurfer (Two groups: younger adults, older adults). We are analyzing areas of cortical thickness that are important for memory recall. I am able to perform between groups analysis in the QDEC that shows where the

Hi Kevin, you can generate one by going to the surf directory for a subject and running mris_inflate -n lh.white lh.partially_inflated where n ranges from 1 to 10 (10 is the default that gives the fully inflated surface) cheers Bruce On Mon, 2 Nov 2009, Liang, Kelvin wrote: > Hi FS Folks

[Freesurfer] Semi-Inflated Surfaces

2009-11-02 Thread Liang, Kelvin
Hi FS Folks, I've often seen articles present their data on semi-inflated cortical surfaces, and I'd like to display my regions of interest in such a format. However, I've only found inflated, pial, and white surface options in qdec or tksurfer. Am I overlooking an option somewhere? Thank yo

Hi Nick, Why do you use 128 as the value for mri_tessellate in your suggestion below? Should this value be used for all ROIs, regardless of hemisphere? Thank you, Liz Selgrade -Original Message- From: Nick Schmansky [mailto:ni...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu] Sent: Wednesday, September 16, 2009

Re: [Freesurfer] comparison of mean thickness of gyri in two groups

2009-11-02 Thread Michael Harms
Well, if doing a thickness analysis, then mean cortical thickness seems the "natural" covariate to use, if you want to answer the question whether the thickness difference in a region is "beyond" any difference that would be predicted based on mean cortical thickness. This is especially relevant

Hi Dominic, do you have access to any format previous to the analyze one? It doesn't preserve orientation info, and all bets are off once you go through it. cheers Bruce On Mon, 2 Nov 2009, Dominic Brendon Dwyer wrote: > Dear Freesurfer developers, > > > > I have a few analyse images which are

Dear Freesurfer developers, I have a few analyse images which are oriented incorrectly that are part of a larger dataset. When viewed in tkmedit, what is supposed to be coronal is actually displayed as axial and the sagittal is flipped. In these cases the Talairach transform fails spectacularl
