Dear Ruopeng,

 

First let me thank you for making just a fantastic package. I love how it all "just works" and is so well integrated.

 

I do have one request tough, would it be possible to add more command line options to Trackvis to automatically do some operations? What I have in mind is:

 

- Loading TRK file

- Load ROI (s) from Nifti (but even one is enough for a start)

- Filter fibers by ROI (maybe length too if possible)

- Save filtered fibers to a new TRK file

 

I know I can do this with some homemade Python or MATLAB scripts. Even the UCLA Multimodal connectivity package already does do this, but even they claim that the number of found fibers is only 95-99% similar to Trackvis. Also having the GUI quickly load up with the fibers  up would be very good, to quickly check problem cases. Again it's all a question of having all the process well integrated.

 

I wonder if this functionality would be already be possible via the Network remote access option. Is the protocol for that documented somewhere? That would be amazing.

 

A great big thanks!

Hi Gabriel,

Thanks for your kind feedbacks on TrackVis. The command-line options for TrackVis have been a struggle mainly due to the difficulty on Mac version (thanks to Apples app bundle and stuff). As more request coming, I'm thinking maybe I should just make it available in Linux and Windows versions. I'll definitely put that in my to-do list.

On another note, before this TrackVis program was born, I had actually written a command-line version of trackvis (with about 80 options!). I haven't put much new stuff in it since we moved to this new TrackVis project, but it is still usable (and being used with our inhouse batch processing projects). I've made the decision to include that command-line tool in the next release. So stay tuned…

Best,

Ruopeng

Dear Ruopeng,

First let me heartfully thank you for your great work on TrackVIS, and we do use it for data processing in a recent paper– Possible Retrogenesis Observed with Fiber Tracking: An Anteroposterior Pattern of White Matter Disintegrity in Normal Aging and Alzheimer’s Disease

While we did that mainly by hand. We may explore abit more on the data with TrackVIS, and I'd like to know a bit more on batch-process. As I see your new version does have batch-process function. Yet I could not find any hint–sorry that I am medical background and know little about matlab. Could you please give some suggestion / demonstration on the first steps of batch processing to us (gaolion@gmail.com).

Many Thanks!

You can find some introduction here:

http://trackvis.org/dtk/?subsect=script

It does require some knowledge of command-line and shell scripting.
