hello everybody,
i'm trying to extract the following surfaces from mri data using the
mri_strip_skull program
1. outer skin 2. outer skull 3. inner skull
below i've listed the things i tried and the corresponding error messages.
the commands are prefixed, command, and the corresponding messages,
mssg.
i plotted the surfaces obtained from the output files, and i get a sphere
for the outer skull, a surface with jagged edges for the outer skin and a
relatively smooth surface for the inner skull.
if someone is familiar with the mri_strip_skull program or any other method
to extract the three surfaces please let me know.
after the process volume step in freesurfer i do the following. the
subject_name is new_s.
command-
mri_strip_skull subject_name 2
mssg-
nvertices=2562, nfaces=5120
