Retinotopic mapping workshop COSMO 2012
Starting materials • In the folder ‘COSMO’ you will find raw data and toolboxes – as if you had just finished an fMRI retino mapping scan • Your mission is to process these data to the stage where you can see phase-encoded retinotopy on the cortical surface. • How many visual areas can you delineate?
Stages I • Examine raw (aligned) data • Average time series • Compute coherence / phase maps • Visualize data in the ‘Inplane’ view • Plot (and understand) time series from different parts of the brain
Stages II • Compute alignment between ‘Inplanes’ and a high resolution reference anatomy • Project data into this ‘Gray’ view • Find the calcarine sulcus. Plot times series along this anatomical feature • Render the surface of the brain as a 3D mesh • Project retinotopy data to this surface. • Inflate the surface
Stages III • Create flattened representations of the left and right occipital cortex • Project data to ‘Flat maps’ • Identify the borders of visual areas. • Create and label ROIs around these areas • Project these ROIs back to th Gray view • Render them.

Step 1 – The inplane view Anatomical view
Step 1 – The inplane view Mean fMRI BOLD amplitude map
Step 1 – The inplane view Computing the correlation analysis
Step 1 – The inplane view First view of phase-encoded data
Step 1 – The inplane view Multiple slices through the same dataset
Step 1 – The inplane view Defining an ROI – use CTRL-R or the ‘ROI’ menu
Step 1 – The inplane view Accessing the plotting tools
Step 1 – The inplane view A sample fMRI time course
Step 1 – The inplane view Average of a single cycle
Step 1 – The inplane view FFT of a mean time series
Step 1 – The inplane view FFT of a mean time series after data averaging
Step 1 – The inplane view Plot single cycle time courses in a set of ROIs down the calcarine sulcus
Step 1 – The inplane view Averaging time series data across scans
Alignment • Purpose: Compute an affine transformation between the ‘Inplane’ anatomical data and a high-resolution anatomical dataset. • Segmentation, mesh generation has been performed on the highres anatomy already • If all functional datasets are transformed into this space then data from different expt on the same subject can be compared

This is the end… • Or in fact the beginning • How many visual areas can you find? • Define ROIs around some of them (use the polygon ROI tool) • Plot some statistics (co vs phase?)
More • Transform ROIs back into the Gray view. • Build and render a 3D mesh in this view (you will have to find and run mrmMeshSrv.exe first) • Look at data on the inflated mesh • Extract voxel-level data from an ROI
