= Use FreeSurfer cortical parcellation = The free software !FreeSurfer can be used to extract brain and head surfaces from a T1 MRI. It also automatically registers the individual cortex surfaces to two atlases (Desikan-Killiany and Destrieux). The results of those of those cortex segmentations can now be imported in Brainstorm as scouts, and therefore be used as anatomical ROIs. For more information about the methods involved and the software installation: * Cortical parcellation: http://freesurfer.net/fswiki/CorticalParcellation * !FreeSurfer Wiki: http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/ == Import parcellations == 1. Process your subject MRI with the full FreeSurfer T1 analysis pipeline 1. In Brainstorm, create a protocol and a subject, as explained in the introduction tutorials 1. Import the following files from the FreeSurfer architecture: * MRI: /mri/T1.mgz * Head surface: /bem/wateshed/sample_outer_skin_surface * Left hemisphere: /surf/lh.pial (or lh.smoothwm) * Right hemisphere: /surf/lh.pial (or lh.smoothwm)
