I'm still not sure I understand what you are doing. Is it a volume-based analysis or a surface-based analysis? You would only use a brain mask or a surface mask for a volume-based analysis. doug On 01/09/2014 04:15 PM, yaya ya wrote: > Thank you very much for your patience, douglas. > > I just

Thank you very much for your patience, douglas. I just want to create a surface mask. What you said is use mri_annotation2label to create a surface mask. Then when do mri_glmfit analysis on the surface, I need to use the flag --label my surface mask. If my understanding is wrong, don't hesitate t

Is this an analysis of volume/voxel data or surface/vertex data? If surface, then you'll need to extract the left insula label from lh.aparc.annot (use mri_annotation2label), then pass this label to mri_glmfit with --label doug On 01/09/2014 03:52 PM, yaya ya wrote: > Thanks, Doug. > > I jus

Thanks, Doug. I just searched the list to find how to generate a mask. Let us say the surface of the left insula. It seems that I need to use mri_mask command and the brain which I use to get the mask should be brainmask.mgz in the fsaverage, right? Then I use this mask in mri_glmfit command. A

Dear Doug, I am sorry. It is my first time to post the message in this way. I am now used to it:) The results from the contrast 0 0 1 -1 did not survive the multiple comparision corrections. In other words, I guess that it should imply that I could try DOSS. If my thought is wrong, please feel f

Please remember to post to the list. For the 0 0 1 -1 contrast, did any results survive multiple comparisons correction? If so, then at least the voxels in that region cannot be used with DOSS. I'm not sure why the patter was opposite between the two contrasts. I could mean that there is a non

Dear Freesurfer experts, I have a question about cortical thickness analysis using freesurfer. Since I don't know how to post my question in freesurfer mailing list, that is why I am writing to you to get some help. Hopefully, my email will not cause you any troubles. My question is : When I com
