Re: [Freesurfer] Contrasts in GLM

Hi Doug, Our hypothesis is that cortical thickness will be lower in patients than in volunteers, once controlled for gender, age, education, etc. I may remove MMSE as diagnosis of the patient is in part based on the MMSE scores. In that case, I would have 12 regressors, in the order you listed m

Hi John Doug can say for sure, but I think you want to give it the switch --sval-xyz so it knows to expect a surface not a scalar field over the surface. cheers Bruce On Wed, 7 Dec 2011, John Griffiths wrote: [ Douglas and Dan - sending this again as I didn't sent it to the list address bef

[ Douglas and Dan - sending this again as I didn't sent it to the list address before. Sorry. ] Thanks guys. When I run mri_info on the .mgz file I was using before it seems crash (nothing happens, and have to press ctrl+c to get the console back). So I suppose that partially explains mri_surf2s
