Hi Gaurang it depends on what you are trying to fix. Is it cortical gray matter? If so, it is usually either the case that the underlying white matter is incorrect, in which case you fix it and the gray will be accurate, or the auto-detected class intensities are inaccurate. Can you send us an

To whom it may concern: I had question about Freesurfer, I am trying to correct the gray matter volume. So I made changes by adding pixels to the contour, and ran recon-all. Subsequently, when I opened up the file after performing recon-all I saw were the pixels (which are white) that I added wh

Yes, those are the right commands. That will give you the ces (the regression coefficient). Typically, people use the pearson correlation coefficient (pcc), but I have not seen many differences between the two. On 05/06/2016 05:13 PM, Martin Juneja wrote: > Thanks a lot Dr. Greve. > > So as per

It estimates the FWHM from the data (glmdir/fwhm.dat). It does this by computing the pearson correation coefficient of the residual error between adjacent vertices. This is then averaged over all vertices to compute a mean cor coef. A transform is then applied to compute the FWHM. This is consi

You should not use the sig as that is the first level significance. If you pass that to the higher level, then the results will be hard to interpret. I think you'll want to use pcc or ces. Otherwise looks ok. doug On 05/06/2016 12:03 PM, Martin Juneja wrote: > Dear FS experts, > > I just finishe

Hi Qi, you should process both time points together via the freesurfer longitudinal stream. Independent processing is less sensitive. Selecting one of the time points as a template is also bad, as it induces processing bias, see: https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/LongitudinalProcessi

Hi, There are certainly papers in which thickness is corrected using global mean thickness, and surface area is corrected using total surface area.  It is a valid approach, and one that I think is preferable to correcting by using a somewhat arbitrary adjustment to a non-like measure
