I can't say whether it's the best way, but it should be relatively unbiased

Thanks in advance

Hi Ignacio,
the thickness is definitely affected by factors such as sequence type,
field strength and acquisition parameters (not to mention age, maybe
gender, etc...) so I think you need to acquire your own control(s) on a
matched acquisition.
cheers.

Hi Ignacio,
I see. You could do that, but I don't think it will show what you want.
There is a big geometric component to the thickness - crowns are thick and
fund are thin - so at the very least you might try including mean curvature
as a covariate.
cheers

Sorry I didn't realize since you have the same domain.
Ok, Let's say I do know the mean cortical thickness value of a subject. Then
is it possible know what brain areas differ more from that mean value by
using a color map visualization (I.e. for example: red = higher deviations,
deep blue = low
Hi Ignacio
you mean different from the median in that subject? Easy enough to do in
matlab, but we don't have anything out of the box to do it
cheers
