Hi Anastasia! That makes sense, thank you! So the question is how do I evaluate the noisiness of a path? 1) Most of my isosurfaces look a lot noisier than your example on the wiki. There's obviously no hard and fast rule here but is there any way to gauge the noisiness of a reconstructed pat

Hi, Rerunning the tractography using reinit, is it an absolute requirement to specify number of control points? It doesn't seem like I can just set reinit = 1 and let the number of control points be the default. Also, is there a trade-off in terms of number of control points? For instance, when re

Hi Peggy - It's trying out all the paths from all the atlas subjects for candidates to use to initialize the path in your subject. If it's having such a hard time finding a good candidate, I suspect that something went wrong earlier in the pre-processing, something like a serious registration

Hi, I'm using freesurfer-Darwin-lion-stable-pub-v5.3.0 and the latest version of tracula (downloaded Sept 2014). I was running 'trac-all -prior -c mydmrircfile.txt' with reinit=1 on a few tracts that initially reconstructed to look like single voxels. The log file indicated there was difficulty co

Hi Lars - A path with fewer control points will generally be smoother. So if the tract is pretty much a straight line, you might get a noisier result if you increase the number of control points. But if the tract is more convoluted than a straight line, then you need more control points to def

2015-05-12 Thread Lars M. Rimol
Hi, The various tracts have different default numbers of control points, with a higher number for more curved paths. In a previous mail Dr. Yendiki recommended changing the number of control points if several attempts rerunning reinit don't produce a satisfactory result. Is it always better to hav
