[Freesurfer] flash v.s. mprage

2014-05-08 Thread Gregory Kirk
looking at the docs available it seems that in general flash is prefered but it seems that for cortical thickness studies you may still favor the mprage ? all with good parameter setting of course. thanks in advance for any clarifying comments you may have Greg ___

[Freesurfer] nonlinear models in longitudinal analysis

2014-05-08 Thread Jodie Davies-Thompson
Dear Freesurfer experts, I am attempting to do a longitudinal analysis of cortical thickness with 3 timepoints. So far, I have successfully completed the analysis for long_mris_slopes comparing timepoint 1 to timepoint 2, timepoint 2 to timepoint 3, and a linear increase for timepoint 1 to 2 to

Hi Emil how do the surfaces look before you apply the T2 deformation? And how do they look visualized over the T2 instead of the T1? cheers Bruce On Thu, 8 May 2014, Emil H.J. Nijhuis wrote: Hi, I have been using Freesurfer v5.3 to perform surface reconstruct for 1mm isotropic T1 (MPRAGE

then you probably want to use mri_label2vol to sample it into the volume. If the output name has the extension .nii it will be in nifti format cheers Bruce On Thu, 8 May 2014, Jutta Ernst wrote: > It's a label file... > > > On 05/08/2014 02:56 PM, Bruce Fischl wrote: >> and what format is you
