Hi Mia, try looking at the lh.orig.nofix surface. There may be a huge defect (like the entire cerebellum is attached). You can run tkmedit MG58_SurferOutput_postop orig.mgz lh.orig.nofix Note that you will get a few error messages when loading the orig.nofix surface. These can be ignored doug

It has to be float because that's what it uses internally. Can you break the volume up into slices? If so, then you can analyze each separately then combine the results back together (can't do correction for multiple comparisons though). doug On 5/11/11 10:19 AM, Bruce Fischl wrote: > no easy

OK, so there's no workaround from your side? There are many empty voxels in the volumes, so as a workaround I'm going to crop the volumes and hope that they will fit in the 2GB. On 11 May 2011, at 15:51, Bruce Fischl wrote: > oh, yes, that's definitely not enough: > > 4*256*256*256*72/(1024*10

I did. However, without any other concurrent process running I get exactly the same problem. I guess that this is due to the 2GB limit which can be allocated on a 32 bits machine. On 11 May 2011, at 15:40, Bruce Fischl wrote: > do you have other stuff running? > > On Wed, 11 May 2011, Ed Gronensc

Hi, We are on a Intel Mac and are facing a memory problem with mri_glmfit. We want to apply it to a 4D volume consisting of 72 3D volumes of 256 * 256 * 256 voxels each, with 1 byte per voxel. During processing we get the error message that it could not allocate 262144 bytes for the 9313th slice.

Javier, It should not be necessary to revert to using COR files. How much memory and disk space do you have? We recommend 2GB of ram (and make sure disk space is not empty...freesurfer can fill-up a disk quickly). Nick On Wed, 2008-03-05 at 10:28 -0500, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Hello, > >
