mri_segstats also has a --mask option. It will exclude anything not in the mask. There are a few mask options like setting thresholds, etc doug On 1/28/15 4:17 PM, Ben Eliezer, Noam wrote: Dear Doug — Your suggestion worked perfectly. I’ve loaded the segmentation data (aparc+aseg.mgz) and t

Dear Doug — Your suggestion worked perfectly. I’ve loaded the segmentation data (aparc+aseg.mgz) and the registered T2 maps into MATLAB and was able to detect a few outliers that biased the standard-deviation of the statistics. I’ll apply the same approach to collect statistics for the rest of

It is finding 0s in the T2 (the range is 0-4000). I'm not sure about the 4000, but the 0s indicate that something is strange with that image. How was it created? On 1/27/15 1:22 PM, Ben Eliezer, Noam wrote: — I (think that) I am not really interested in converting into rawavg coordinate syst

— I (think that) I am not really interested in converting into rawavg coordinate system, but just need to register my T2 maps to the segmentation maps. So, I guess that aseg+aparc.mgz will suffice in my case — Regarding the mean +- std values: Yes - the T2 maps are whole brain. could that accoun

First off, I would use --init-header instead of --init-spm. Probably won't make a difference, but it is safer in this case. Second, look at the registration in tkregister (bbregister prints out the command line, you can just cut and paste). doug ps. Please remember to post the list instead o
