'$' - indicates shell commands

'dir' - refers to the directory where the study data is found (ex. /jet/aguirre/CrossModal)

'new subject' - the subject you are currently analyzing (ex. X111111X)

'old subject' - a subject that has been analyzed previously (ex. X000000X)

====== Preprocessing ======


Follow steps found on Preprocessing wiki

Use /jet/aguirre/CrossModal/PrepScripts/VBPs/'old subject'.vbp &  /jet/aguirre/CrossModal/PrepScripts/VBPs/Stock_CMP_Prep_new.vbp

====== Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) Analysis ======
[output: fAnisotropy and Mean Diffusivity] 

===== Making DTI Analysis Files =====

$cd 'dir'/'new subject'/DTI

If there are 2 DTI scans:  
	$mkdir 'dir'/DTI/combined_DTI
	$cp 00*/* combined_DTI

If there is only 1 DTI scan:   
	$mkdir 'dir'/DTI/one_DTI
	$cp 00*/* one_DTI

 Open Matlab  [See Also http://alliance.seas.upenn.edu/~pauly2/wiki/index.php?n=Main.DTITools for additional help]

	>cd(‘Volumes/170.212.110.245’)
	If there are 2 scans: 
		>cd(/Aguirre/CrossModal/[subject]/DTI/combined_DTI/
	If there is only 1 scan: 
		>cd(/Aguirre/CrossModal/[subject]/DTI/one_DTI/
	>dti_ui  **dialog box will open**
	    * in bottom of box type “-bgthresh 50 -md”
	Click button “DICOM ->Analyze DTI"
	Check to make sure you are in 'dir'/'new subject'/DTI/[combined or one_DTI]
	Click “All”
	When all images are highlighted in blue → Click “Done”
	   *this produces files “ep_b1000#(0-# of directions) and “ep_b0…” for ea. DTI scan

[Pause - approx. 10 minutes]
	
	Now follow the following steps:
	1) Select ONLY the "b0" images in order (ex. ep_b0-0012… and ep_b0-0013…)
	2) Select the remaining b1000 files for the 1st scan in order (ex. ep_b1000#0-0012…, ep_b1000#1-0012…,…) 
	   * If there is only one scan all of the files will be selected when you have completed this step
	3) Select remaining b1000 files for the 2nd scan (in order) etc. (Only needed if there are 2 scans)
	4) Select “Done”
	5) Set your path to /jet/aguirre/CrossModal/ScriptsDTI
		If 2 scans: select “HUP_M1_N12_b1000_R2.scheme.txt”
		If 1 scan: select “HUP_M1_N12_b1000.scheme.txt”
		* These files can be copied to your directory for use for other studies
	6) Click “Done”
	7) Change directory to 'dir'/"new subject"/DTI/ and click the “analyzed” folder (located on the RIGHT side of the window)
	8) Click “Done”
	9) When prompted for (optional mask) click “Done”

[Pause: at this point the program will run for approximately 1 hr.]

If you receive an error message that the command "analyzedti" did not run (due to inability to access camino path)
	$cd 'dir'/'new subject'/DTI/[combined or one_DTI]
	If 2 scans: $analyzedti imagelist.txt 'dir'/'new subject'/DTI/analyzed/'dir'/ScriptsDTI/HUP_M1_N12_b1000_R2.scheme.txt 
	If 1 scan: $analyzedti imagelist.txt 'dir'/'new subject'/DTI/analyzed/'dir'/ScriptsDTI/HUP_M1_N12_b1000.scheme.txt 


===== Coregistering FA & MD (putting DTI into MNI space) =====

 !! Beware: Due to down sampling, this step causes a large drop in resolution. This is not being done with our CrossModal data!!

	$cd 'dir'/PrepScripts/CoRegFaMd_Scripts
	$cp “old subject”_CoRegNorm_FaMd.vbp “new subject”_CoRegNorm_FaMd.vbp
	$emacs “newsubject”_CoRegNorm_FaMd.vbp
		replace string: “old subject” with “new subject”
		*Check line 34: .tes files are named correctly?
	$vbprep “newsubject”_CoRegNorm_FaMd.vbp
		*output will be “nfa_CoReg.cub in Anatomy/

To view "nfa_CoReg.cub" load as you would for functional data and use a range of 1.0 to 0.0

 ====== Diffusion Tensor Tracking (DTT) ======
(Warping standard MNI brain to subject T1 space)

===== Putting MPRage in analyze format =====

Open matlab
	>cd ‘dir’/'new subject'/DTI/norm/t1
	>dti_ui
		1) Click Step 1 (HUP DTI DICOM Conversion)
		2) Click up to 'new subject'/Anatomy/raw/*MPRage
		3) Click All
		4) Click Done
		** window closes

At this point you are finished using Matlab

	$cd 'dir'/'new subject'/DTI/norm/t1
	$mv tfl3d1*.hdr tfl3d1.hdr
	$mv tfl3d1*.img tfl3d1.img
	$ln –s /home/pcook/prasad/ch2.hdr ch2.hdr
	$ln –s /home/pcook/prasad/ch2.img ch2.img
	$cd 'dir'/ScriptsDTI/
	$cp mvsn.sh ../'new subject'/DTI/norm/t1/.
	$cd 'dir'/'new subject'/DTI/norm/t1
	$./mvsn.sh &

[Pause: this will take about an hour to process]

The output will be inside the t1 folder and will be several ch2* files

===== Moving DTI b0 scan into subject T1 space =====

!! Continue ONLY after DTT T1 files are made (mvsn.sh program)
	
$cd ‘dir’/subject/DTI/norm/b0

If 2 scans:
	$cp ‘dir’/subject/DTI/combined_DTI/ep_b0-(1st scan)*.img b0_1.img
	$cp ‘dir’/subject/DTI/combined_DTI/ep_b0-(1st scan)*.hdr b0_1.hdr
	$cp ‘dir’/subject/DTI/combined_DTI/rep_b0-(2nd scan)*.img b0_2.img
	$cp ‘dir’/subject/DTI/combined_DTI/rep_b0-(2nd scan)*.hdr b0_2.hdr
	$cd 'dir'/ScriptsDTI/
	$./mnitob0.sh 'new subject' &

If 1 scan:
	$cp ‘dir’/subject/DTI/one_DTI/ep_b0-(scan)*.img b0.img
	$cp ‘dir’/subject/DTI/one_DTI/ep_b0-(scan)*.hdr b0.hdr
	$cd 'dir'/ScriptsDTI/
	$./mnitob0_norepeat.sh ‘subject’ &
