FreeSurfer 7.0.0 beta 1 Notes


Important Note: When processing a group of subjects for your study, it is essential to process all your subjects with the same version of FreeSurfer, on the same OS platform and vendor, and for safety, even the same version of the OS. While we continue to work to ensure that results match across platforms, there are none-the-less system-level libraries that are OS dependent. An exception to this rule is that you may view and edit files across any platform or version, and run some post-processing tools (outside the recon-all stream) if you check with us first (for instance you may run the longitudinal processing with newer versions).

Installation

Linux: On Linux systems, the tar archive file (.tar.gz) can be expanded under any convenient path/subdirectory on your machine you have permission to write to. For example, you can expand the tar archive under your $HOME directory. To install freesurfer under a recommended shared system location, e.g., /usr/local, you will typically need sudo or root privileges. If you have sudo/root privileges, then you should consider using the RPM installer which by default installs the freesurfer 7.0.0 beta 1 release under /usr/local/freesurfer/<release version> using the linux package management tools. Using the linux package management tools to perform the installation also provides the advantage of trying to install any software packages freesurfer depends upon that are not already installed on your system.

Example install using the tar CentOS7 archive under $HOME directory for user logged in as "tester"

$ cd $HOME
$ pwd
/home/tester
$ tar xvpf freesurfer-linux-centos7_x86_64-dev.tar.gz
