= Welcome =
  Welcome to the FreeSurferWiki. FreeSurfer is a set of tools for analysis and visualization of structural and functional brain imaging data. The FreeSurferWiki provides a documentation forum for investigators at the [http://www.martinos.org Athinoula A. Martinos Center For Biomedical Imaging].
##<<Include(FreeSurfer)>>
!FreeSurfer is a software package for the analysis and visualization of structural and functional neuroimaging data from cross-sectional or longitudinal studies. It is developed by the [[http://martinos.org/lcn/|Laboratory for Computational Neuroimaging]] at the [[http://www.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu|Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging.]]

!FreeSurfer provides many anatomical analysis tools, including: representation of the cortical surface between white and gray matter, representation of the pial surface, segmentation of white matter from the rest of the brain, skull stripping, B1 bias field correction, nonlinear registration of the cortical surface of an individual with a stereotaxic atlas, labeling of regions of the cortical surface, statistical analysis of group morphometry differences, and labeling of subcortical brain structures and much more ...
