Resting-State fMRI Data Analysis Toolkit plus V1.30 (RESTplus V1.30)

 
 
 
     RESTplus 从 REST(静息状态 fMRI 数据分析工具包)演变而来。它基于 Matlab 和 SPM8。RESTplus 包括四个主要模块,即管道、统计分析、实用程序和查看器。

     The pipeline (either fixed or flexible) module provides a very easy way for data processing. After arrangethe DICOM or NIFTI filesand click a few buttons to set parameters, the pipeline (or flexible) module will automatically calculate each processing step and give you all the processed data. The pipeline and flexible module can perform slice timing, realign, reorient, normalize, smooth, detrend, filter, nuisance covariates regression, Functional Connectivity (FC), Regional Homogeneity (ReHo), Amplitude of Low-Frequency Fluctuation (ALFF), fractional ALFF (fALFF), Granger causality, degree centrality, voxel-mirrored homotopic connectivity (VMHC), and percent amplitude of fluctuation (PerAF). 

     You can also use RESTplus to perform statistical analysis, view your data, perform Monte Carlo simulation (similar to AlphaSim in AFNI), perform Gaussian random field theory multiple comparison correction like easythresh in FSL, calculate your images, regress out covariates, extract ROI time courses, reslice images, calculate intraclass correlation, perform quality assurance, normalize PET data, inverse data into original space, and sort DICOM files. RESTplus also includes ASL toolbox.

New features of REST V1.8 release 130615:
1. Fixed a bug in temporal correlation of two groups of images in Image Calculator. (Thanks for the report of ZHANG Han)

2. The midline of VMHC results were set to zero. (YAN Chao-Gan)
 

New features of REST V1.8 release 130303:
When calling Mingrui Xia's BrainNet Viewer (http://www.nitrc.org/projects/bnv/), the default surface template is changed to the smoothed version (BrainMesh_ICBM152_smoothed.nv). The previous default template (BrainMesh_ICBM152.nv) hide more information in the sulcus. If the users want to use BrainMesh_ICBM152.nv as default surface template, please uncomment Line 3740 in rest_sliceviewer: %SurfFileName=[BrainNetViewerPath,filesep,'Data',filesep,'SurfTemplate',filesep,'BrainMesh_ICBM152.nv'];
(After discussion with Mingrui Xia).

New features of REST V1.8 release 130214:
1.    This release fixed some minor bugs, will not affect any data analysis.
2.    Fixed a bug when using .nii(.gz) files in REST Image Calculator. (WANG Xin-Di)
3.    Fixed a bug in using .nii(.gz) files in GCA analyses. (ZANG Zhen-Xiang)
4.    Fixed the imresize_old bug of REST Slice Viewer with Matlab 2012b. (YAN Chao-Gan)

New features of REST V1.8 release 121225:
1.    Support parallel computing! If you installed the MATLAB parallel computing toolbox, REST can distribute the subjects into different CPU cores. (WANG Xin-Di and YAN Chao-Gan).
2.    Algorithm change: (1) Filtering: a separate function for matrix filtering was written. The low cutoff frequency index calculation changed from round (in REST V1.7) to "ceil". E.g., if low cut off corresponded to index 5.1, now it will start from 6 other than 5. This change also applies to ALFF and fALFF calculation. The filtered data changes slightly, about 0.0001. (2) The ALFF generated by the new version is sqrt(2/N) times of the original version. (new version used: 2*abs(fft(x))/N; original version used:  sqrt(2*abs(fft(x))^2/N)). This change will not affect group analysis (as each individual scaled the same number), and will not affect mALFF and fALFF calculation as this factor will be normalized. (3) In the calculation of ReHo, the rank will keep as double and no longer converted into uint16, thus created slight difference with REST V1.7. (YAN Chao-Gan)
3.    REST Slice Viewer support 4D file display and the maximum and minimum value could be set. (WANG Xin-Di)
4.    Gaussian random field (GRF) theory multiple comparison correction (like easythresh in FSL) was supported. The smoothness could be evaluated for GRF correction or AlphaSim correction. (GUI by WANG Xin-Di, algorithm by YAN Chao-Gan)
5.    Modules of voxel-mirrored homotopic connectivity (VMHC) (Zuo et al., 2010), Degree Centrality (Buckner et al., 2009) were added. (GUI by WANG Xin-Di, algorithm by YAN Chao-Gan)
6.    REST GCA: could handle multiple ROIs (other than 2) in ROI-wise GCA now. Fixed a bug of discordance between the outputs and the description in REST-GCA readme in the pre-release of REST V1.8. (ZANG Zhen-Xiang)
7.    rest_readfile.m and rest_writefile: The default format changed to .nii from .img. (WANG Xin-Di)
8.    rest_to4d.m: now support one 4d file other than a directory, also support a cell of image filenames. (YAN Chao-Gan)
9.    rest_regress_ss.m: add the output of T value. (YAN Chao-Gan)
10.    rest_Write4DNIfTI.m: This function was added for write 4D nifti files based on SPM’s nifti function. (YAN Chao-Gan)
11.    rest_writefile.m: No longer need to change to RPI before writing. (YAN Chao-Gan)

DOWNLOAD 

Multimedia Course: Data Processing of Resting-State fMRI

New features of REST V1.4 release 100426:
1. Fixed a reading and writing bug of compatibility with SPM8.

New features of REST V1.4 release 100420:
1. In previous release of REST, there is a simple procedure for removing linear trend in bandpass filter (as fourier_filter.c in AFNI) regardless if detrend calculation has been performed before bandpass filter or not. Now this simple procedure for removing linear trend in bandpass filter has been canceled.
2. In previous release of REST, bandpass filter (or ALFF and fALFF) determined the frequency band a little smaller than the real wanted frequency band. For example, if the wanted band is 0.01-0.08, TR=2S, Time points=240, then the real wanted frequency band is 0.0104-0.07917, but the previous release of REST will determined to 0.0083-0.07708. This bug has been fixed in REST V1.4 release 100420. These two modifications will make the results obtained by REST V1.4 slightly different from those obtained by previous version of REST, please be careful.
3. REST Statistical Analysis: Statistical analysis module has been added -- One-Sample T-Test, Two-Sample T-Test, Paired T-Test, ANCOVA, and Correlation Analysis. The operations are much easier than the operations in SPM. Especially, the covariate images can be added into statistical analysis (such as adding GM volume images as covariates in statistical analysis).  (by YAN Chao-Gan)
4. REST Slice Viewer: Fixed a bug in displaying overlay with different bounding box from those of underlay. For example, if you use ch2.nii as underlay, but the bounding box of overlay is not [-90 -126 -72;90 90 108] (e.g. if you use SPM’s default: [-78 -112 -50; 78 76 85]), then REST Slice Viewer will display in a wrong way. Please re-display your image with REST V1.4 if your data with a bounding box different from [-90 -126 -72;90 90 108]. (by DONG Zhang-Ye)
5. REST-GCA: The Beta 1.0 release 100201 of REST-GCA supports only the signed-path coefficient maps at a fixed order=1 condition. In order to implement a more general GCA program, we updated REST-GCA. The updated version integrates two algorithms: the coefficient-based GCA and the residual-based GCA. The updated version supports any order. Please refer to http://www.restfmri.net/forum/REST-GCA for more details. (by ZANG Zhen-Xiang)

  (2) ReHo: It should be noted that the previous release of REST does not calculate the ReHo value of the voxels near the border of the brain mask, i.e., any voxel of the 27 voxels in the cluster is outside the brain mask. The new release (here the closed test version) will calculate the ReHo value of the voxels near the border of the brain mask, users should be cautious when discussing the results near the border.
  (3) Functional Connectivity: Now it can process multiple subjects with different seed time courses (.txt) in batch mode. Give the seed time course configuration file as:
Seed_Time_Course_List.:
X:\Structural_Functional\Reprocess\Sub3Seed.txt
X:\Structural_Functional\Reprocess\Sub2Seed.txt
X:\Structural_Functional\Reprocess\Sub1Seed.txt
  (4) REST: Checking and fixing the error of reading and writing NIfTI images when REST starts
  (5) rest_to4d: If data has too huge or too many volumes, then it will be loaded into memory in 'single' format.
  (6) Templates: Added 3x3x3 AAL template and Brodmann template.
3. Bugs Fixed:
  (1) Fixed the bugs of color, montage and resize in REST Slice Viewer.
  (2) Fixed the bug of writing ANALYZE images.
  (3) Fixed the bug of writing data caused by finite in MATLAB 2009.
  (4) LastSphereMask would be stored under temp dir other than {REST_DIR} in case the users do not have write permission to {REST_DIR}.
