Re: [Freesurfer] 2nd Level Analyses in FreeSurfer

No, don't try to register them directly to fsaverage. Create a registration matrix for each 1st level (sounds like you've done this), then use mri_vol2surf with "--trgsubject fsaverage". This will sample the CON to the subject's individual surface, then use the surface-based registration to map

That is the right way to map it to the volume. Does the activation disappear in the volume? If you want to go to the fsaverage surface, you should use mri_vol2surf and spec "--trgsubject fsaverage" doug casp...@clipper.ens.fr wrote: > Hi! > > This is maybe something very easy: but I am not sure

You can do it this way, but it will be inferior to using a subject-specific label (why use freesurfer in the first place?). You can map a label from fsaverage to the mni152 with mri_label2vol, specifying $FREESURFER_HOME/average/mni152.register.dat as the registration. doug mmoay...@uhnres.ut

You can run mri_surfcluster to get basic statistics. If you want cluster p-values, you will need to run a simulation (mri_glmfit-sim), or you can pass mri_surfcluster a simulation table that we distribute here: ftp://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/transfer/outgoing/flat/greve/mult-comp-cor.tar.gz

Hi Patricia, when you convert your labels to volume, they will not be actually the cortical masks, but rather a line of voxels on the junction of GM and WM, which should be fine for seeding and targeting the tractography. Best, Martin On Friday 18 June 2010 02:24:52 ox...@yahoo.com wrote: > t
