Hi Alan - If you're using a standard MGH diffusion sequence and you have a Martinos account, look for the appropriate gradient table in this directory: $FREESURFER_HOME/diffusion/mgh-dti-seqpack/ You'll have to find out how many gradient directions are in your data (that's the number

When you loaded the lowb into freeview and it looked registered with the anatomical, did you load the lowb with the registration file? If not, then the registration may be wrong. Things may look almost right when you don't specify a registration file because you probably collected the dti and

Hi Goi, please remember to post to the freesurfer list. Thanks! The max psd depends upon how long it takes for the HRF to return to baseline (and do not related to the TR). This is usually something like 20 sec + the duration of your stimulus. doug On 2/17/14 1:31 PM, Goi Khia Eng wrote:

Hi Linn, I have never done that, so I am not sure, but since it is likely affecting the surface, I think you need to do it in the base, to get good initial surfaces. You may have to do it again in the long stage. Start with the base. Best, Martin On 02/10/2014 10:49 AM, Linn Christin Bonaven
