Hi Salil, please send questions to the free surfer mailing list. If you used the longitudinal stream for processing the etiv should be the same in all time points. It is computed in the 'base' = within subject template once for the entire series. It seems that you did not run your images throug

Thank you Martin. Just to clarify, then it is not valid to compare values of single point analyses (e.g. hippocampal volume from freesurfer analysis of time point 1 subtracted from hippocampal volume of from freesurfer analysis of time point 2). Best wishes, -Salil On Mon, Nov 11, 2013 at 7:58

Hi Salil, of course you can compare values like you say. Why shouldn't you? The longitudinal stream is used to increase reliability of reported measures if you have 2 or more images from the same subjects. Best Martin On 11/11/2013 12:00 PM, Salil Soman wrote: Thank you Martin. Just to cla
