Hello guys!
I am running CSA analysis for different studies, but recently I came across with a potential issue; when I analyze some nii the majority of the CSA in the cervical spinal cord are in magnitude of 10s (ie C3 45) but with one study I am finding magnitudes of 100 (ie 900). Can someone give me some orientation of what is happening?
Hi @enriquegf,
Thank you for reaching out. Could you please clarify what you mean by “10s (ie C3 45)”? CSA are in mm^2, so I am not sure what you meant here.
I’m also confused by “magnitudes of 100 (ie 900)”. What is the unit here? And what does “ie 900” mean?
I am sorry for this barely legible explanation. I upload both screenshot from what I ve done.
I obtained results from one study in magnitude of hundreds, but in the same patient in a previous study it is in magnitude of tens.
It is probably caused by your NIfTI headers, which are corrupted (ie: the qform/sform does not reflect the actual physical dimensions). If you upload an example image and segmentation that yields those CSAs I can have a look.
ok! here is the .nii of this patient from which I obtained this results.
Thank very very much! I am just beginning to try SCT as a neurologist m20.nii.gz (2.4 MB)
hum, the header looks good-- could you please also upload the segmentation you used to compute the CSA?
Of course! here it is
m20_seg_labeled_discs.nii.gz (77.7 KB) m20_seg_labeled.nii.gz (84.3 KB) m20_seg.nii.gz (4.8 KB)
I’m not sure what you did, but results look OK on my end:
| VertLevel | MEAN(area) |
|---|---|
| 8 | 44.05825885019590 |
| 7 | 48.594102619341700 |

| 4 | 57.07686534077420 |
| 3 | 57.532144223958000 |
CSV output: csa.csv (2.9 KB)
I used this command (SCT v5.1.0):
sct_process_segmentation -i m20_seg.nii.gz -vertfile m20_seg_labeled.nii.gz -vert 3:8 -perlevel 1
Thanks!
I will re-run it to try to look for what error I might have.
If you could write the exact syntax you typed it is helpful for us to debug. Usually we ask users to copy/paste the syntax and output from the Terminal.
no news from the user after one month so I’m tagging this issue as “solved”
I am sorry for the delay Prof. Cohen,
I have been re running this same analysis and found again the same situation. In this occasion I will paste the text:

hi,
this is what i’ve done:
# segment cord
sct_deepseg_sc -i m21.nii.gz -c t2 -qc qc
# segment vertebral levels
sct_label_vertebrae -i m21.nii.gz -s m21_seg.nii.gz -c t2 -qc qc
# compute CSA per level
sct_process_segmentation -i m21_seg.nii.gz -vert 3:8 -perlevel 1 -vertfile m21_seg_labeled.nii.gz -o csa.csv
Output CSA:
| Slice (I->S) | VertLevel | MEAN(area) |
|---|---|---|
| 59:79 | 7 | 44.588012478803200 |
| 80:98 | 6 | 49.05501984303600 |
| 99:125 | 5 | 56.86860001785900 |
| 126:146 | 4 | 60.863621026422700 |
| 147:168 | 3 | 47.8760699285787 |
| 169:189 | 2 | 58.94214593820830 |
Output CSV: csa.csv (3.0 KB)
Output QC: qc.zip (886.8 KB)
Two things to note:
- Computing CSA on sagittal images with very thick sliced (3.3mm here) is inaccurate and hence not recommended
- In the QC you will notice slight mis-labeling of the vertebral level. If that happens, you can fix it using the command
sct_label_utilsto label the discs of interest, and then runsct_label_vertebrae -discfile. Example here:
Thank you very much Prof. Cohen,
Just to be clear what I usually do is this:
- sct_propseg -i t2.nii.gz -c t2
- sct_label_vertebrae -i t2.nii.gz -s t2_seg.nii.gz -c t2
- sct_register_to_template -i t2.nii.gz -s t2_seg.nii.gz -l t2_seg_labeled.nii.gz -c t2
- sct_warp_template -d t2.nii.gz -w warp_template2anat.nii.gz -a 0
- sct_process_segmentation -i t2_seg.nii.gz -vert 3:8 -perlevel 1 -o csa_c3c4.csv
So I should #segment cord (deepest_sc) in step 2?
Hi,
in my previous comment Differences in CSA i forgot to add the line with “sct_process_segmentation”. It is now added.
So I should #segment cord (deepest_sc) in step 2?
What I am suggesting is that you bypass registration to template if you don’t need it. And you can do the segmentation of the cord with sct_propseg or sct_deepseg_sc, based on what you find gives the best results.
Again, I’ve updated the code for you in Differences in CSA.
It is 3 lines of code.
Run it, let me know if it works for you.
