yes, it does exist in that space. As long as your folding pattern atlas is in register with fsaverage it should work ok. But of course if your motivation is that your pediatric subjects have different folding patterns (which I'm not sure I believe unless they are *very* young), then the whole p

I don't think this makes sense unless you have created a new label atlas for your individual subjects. The current label atlas exists in the fsaverage space. Maybe Bruce can weigh in. On 03/05/2015 04:46 PM, Jason Tourville wrote: > Hi Doug, > Perhaps I should back up and explain our goal. We a

Hi Doug, Perhaps I should back up and explain our goal. We are using Freesurfer to recon pediatric data sets and are planning to use the surface labels as seeds for connectivity studies and for morphometric analyses. We're concerned that using the fsaverage surface template as the target for surfac

The mris_register command is what does the registration and creates a new sphere.reg file. surfreg just implements that command mris_register command. I'm not sure what you mean by the labeling steps. On 03/05/2015 03:53 PM, Jason Tourville wrote: > Hi Doug, > I've run the steps outlined in th

Hi Doug, I've run the steps outlined in the SurfaceRegAndTemplates page so far. So: make_average_subject --out newtemplate --subjects subj1 subj2 subj3 ... foreach subject (subj1 subj2 subj3 ...) cd $SUBJECTS_DIR/subject mris_register -curv surf/lh.sphere \ $SUBJECTS_DIR/newtemplate/lh.r

Hi Bruce, By template here, I mean the folding pattern .tif files. The intention is to have a replacement for the fsaverage template for surfer co-registration. Cheers, Jason On Thu, Mar 5, 2015 at 3:18 PM, Bruce Fischl wrote: > Hi Jason > > I don't think so - you'll probably have to edit the

If you used make_average_subject to create the template, you can run surfreg to do the registration. If/when you run mris_preproc, make sure to spec both the target subject and the new spherical registration On 03/05/2015 03:18 PM, Bruce Fischl wrote: > Hi Jason > > I don't think so - you'll p

Hi Jason I don't think so - you'll probably have to edit the recon-all script. And by template do you just mean the folding pattern .tif files, or do you meant the parcellation atlases (*.gcs)? cheers Bruce On Thu, 5 Mar 2015, Jason Tourville wrote: > Greetings, > I have generated custom surf

[Freesurfer] using custom templates

2015-03-05 Thread Jason Tourville
Greetings, I have generated custom surface templates from pediatric data sets. To apply it to the larger data set, is it sufficient to simply run the autorecon3 steps (perhaps skipping the mris_sphere step)? If so, is there a handy flag for running this with recon-all and/or a way to run autorecon3
