[Freesurfer] calculating percent signal change

2010-09-30 Thread Thomas Janssens
Hello, I am trying to calculate the percent signal changes for my monkey data. I did this by running the command selxavg3-sess and looking at the cespct values (or equivalently by using h.nii divided by h-offset.nii). I found in the mailing list that this value should be corrected by a scaling f

perhaps an alternative is to use the surface area measure of an ROI, namely the aparc regions, to conduct a group analysis, as the vertex distribution problem is averaged-out over the region. n. On Wed, 2010-09-29 at 21:02 -0700, Don Hagler wrote: > The area maps do contain the actual surface are

Hi Thomas, you may have found a bug in my scale factor calculation. Can you compute the new scale factor as described below? BTW, these issues are fixed in version 5. cd bold/analysis x = load('X'); tirf = x.flac0.ev(3).tirf; Xirf = x.flac0.ev(3).Xirf; scalefOld = sum(Xirf .* repmat(tirf,[1 size

you need to use the ?h.cortex.label with -l to exclude those areas. On Thu, 30 Sep 2010, Zhang, Yuning wrote: > Does the surface area calculated here include the non-cortical area along the > medial wall ? > > Thank you very much. > > > From: Michael Harm

It'll be the surface area of whatever you specified by the -l flag -- in your case everything that is part of lh.cortex.label. You can view exactly what that includes on tksurfer. Doing so, you'll see that the non-cortical area along the medial wall is excluded. cheers, -MH On Thu, 2010-09-30
