Hi Alex, the gyri will should have negative mean curvature and the sulci positive. You can overlay the ?h.curv map to check. cheers, Bruce On Thu, 25 May 2006, Fornito, Alexander wrote: Hi, I have some labels that I've drawn, which correspond to the gyral crown and sulcal fundus of a give

There's no real good answer to this, either in the volume or the surface. We usually go from 5-20mm. Some considerations are: 1. Make fwhm = size of your activation. 2. More smoothing can sometimes compensate for misregistration 3. Smoothing does affect multiple comparisons. doug Sasha W

2006-05-25 Thread Bruce Fischl
Hi Sasha, it depends on how many subjects you have in your study (more subjects, less smoothing required), and how anatomically localized you believe your effects should be (more localized less smoothing). Note that in general you don't pay nearly as steep a price for extremely large smoothing

Sorry, got it wrong way around. Either way, when I run mris_anatomical_stats on labels that I have created, I tend to get positive values for mean curvature for labels of both gyral crowns or sulcal fundi. Are the curvature values provided by mris_anatomical_stats unsigned? Alex Fornito M.Psych
