[Freesurfer] VBM in SPM and FreeSurfer

Hi, FreeSurfer and VBM experts I'm a newer in the field, and not sure if this question is relevant to the list - any help will be appreciated. I am wondering about the difference between the data of FS and that of VBM in SPM. After searching in Google, I find a topic following, url: https://mail.

Hi Lijie while SPM (and others) call it "density", it's really just a smoothing of the labeled voxels over space. We tools that would allow you to do the same thing with FS segmentations, but haven't ever put them together into a pipeline as the neurobiological interpretation of such a map is v

Matlab's software probably resolves the precision issues better than ours does. With 250 degrees of freedom, you can get extremely significant values. You can look at the f.mgh file. If you load that and the gamma.mgh into matlab and compute t = sqrt(f).*sign(gamma) you should get the same t tha
