[Freesurfer] Differences on baseline volumes within subject cross-sectional vs longitudinal processing

Hi FreeSurfers, I ran the longitudinal processing pipeline on my subjects, FS 5.0. Following the tutorial, first independently, then base, then long etc. Everything works well, no problems there. Out of curiosity I compared the asegstats & aparcstats within subject at baseline (i.e. The same t

Hi Wen, Brain volume has a good relationship with the overall surface area measured in native space (so, irrespective to any kind of interpolation). We found an R^2 of 0.856, which is higher even than the correlation of brain volume with gray matter volume as measured via VBM-like methods. Howeve

Dear, Zoe Usually after Freesurfer fresh install you will get a SUBJECTS_DIR with several directories, including Bert. The script you used will scan all directories under SUBJECTS_DIR and if it finds any directory without the posterior*.mgz files it will fail. You can check if this is the problem r
