[Freesurfer] Application of Default Surface Based Registration to Surfaces Other than the Sphere

2010-03-01 Thread Matt Glasser
Hi, I am wondering if there is a way to apply the default surface based registration that is done during recon-all to surfaces other than the sphere so that the nodes are all lined up? I am wanting to have registered white matter surfaces that I can map data from the volume to the surface to a

And for the comparison to be appropriate, you further have to make sure that you are using the exact same main and interaction terms in SPSS as are being used in QDEC. The mere presence of interaction terms in a model can have big effects on the significance (or lack thereof) of the main effects.

Try creating a file with the list of files that should be converted, then run mri_convert with --sdcmlist file-with-list If that does not work, you can always just copy the files to a new directory. doug Satrajit Ghosh wrote: > hi, > > mri_convert TrioTim/123456-10-1.dcm test.nii.gz > > wil

hi, mri_convert TrioTim/123456-10-1.dcm test.nii.gz will scan all files in the dicom directory to get at series 10. in the above scenario, i know that the files corresponding to the run are 123456-10-*.dcm. is there a way to leverage this information, so that it does not scan the entire directory

If you use mri_surfcluster, it will output an annotation of the clusters. You can then use mris_anatomical_stats to compute the mean value inside those clusters. doug Cindy Eckart wrote: > Dear FreeSurfers, > > is there an easy way to extract the mean cortical thickness of clusters > according

Depends on some of the details. Is spss demeaning the age? If so, are you passing qdec demeaned ages? It can also be that it shows up better in the ROI analysis (ROI analyses are often more powerful than map-based). doug Dankner, Nathan (NIH/NIMH) [F] wrote: > Hi all, > > I've covaried age in a

Hi all, I've covaried age in a group difference analyses on cortical thickness data both in qdec for vertex-based and in spss for the gyral-based data. For the vertex-based data, covarying age has almost no effect, and if anything intensifies the group differences. However, when run in qdec,
