Hi all, I'm looking to create a mask for the hypothalamus on individual subjects. I've had a good look at the literature, and at the moment, am I right in thinking the automatic segmentation in Freesurfer doesn't currently include the hypothalamus? thanks in advance Ella

Ella, My understanding is the same. I've made my own ROI by hand drawing on the average subject and using various commands to map onto individual subjects. If you're doing resting analysis then you can check your general whole brain correlation results against the literature to see if your ROI

Hi Ella, There are a number of options: You can draw manual segmentations on individual subjects, though the time and cost required for this labor-intensive process of manual tracing has become prohibitive. Paul's suggestion would be a better one, maybe one of our protocols described in e.g. h

It is constructing a GLM with design matrix with 2 columns and N rows where each row is a subject. The row of your patient gets 1 0 and the rows for the other subjects gets 0 1. When you set up a contrast with [1 -1], you are comparing the value of the subject against the mean of the others
