it should just be:

mri_normalize -b 25

Thanks bruce, like creating expert.opts text file in the scripts directory and inserting  
the command "mri_normalize -norm-b 25". Right? This is the modified script

3 echo -e "EntireFreeSurferpipelinewithAutocontrolpoints"
4
5 SubjectID="$1"
6 SubjectDIR="$2"
7 T1="$3" #T1 FreeSurfer Input
8 T2="$4" #T2 FreeSurfer Input

10 recon-all -autorecon-all -i $T1 $T2 T2pial -s $SubjectID -parallel -hires

11 #we need to get aseg, brainmask, norm, brain
12 aseg=$SubjectDIR/$SubjectID/mri/aseg.presurf.mgz
13 brainmask=$SubjectDIR/$SubjectID/mri/brainmask.mgz
14 norm=$SubjectDIR/$SubjectID/mri/norm.mgz
15 brain=$SubjectDIR/$SubjectID/mri/brain.mgz
16
17 #make sure to create an expert.opts text file in the SubjectID/scriptsdirectory 
like this (SubjectID/scripts/expert.opts) and write down the command line 
"mri_normalize -norm2-b 25 
18 echo "mri_normalize -norm2-b 25" > x.opts
19 
20 #include T2pial since you are rerun -autorecon3
21 recon-all -s $SubjectID -autorecon2-cp -autorecon3 -expert x.opts
22 
23 echo -e "done"

 
2) Since I am rerun -autorecon2-cp and -autorecon3 then, do I need the T2pial 
flag. 
3) I named the expert option file  expert.opts, shouldn't I replace the 
"x.opts" with the name of the file (please see lines 18 and 21)
4) For line 18, any reason why you suggested I remove "mri_normalize -mprage 
-norm2-b 25 -aseg $aseg -mask $brainmask $norm $brain"?
5) Do I need to specify the path to the expert.opts files? 
Cheers, 
Pascal

      Hi Pascal

      I think you need to put it in an xopts file as the command line calls 
-mprage after -b 20 and so will reset it. BTW: I used all the way up to -b 25 
and things improved, so you might try that.  At some
      point you will start eroding the gray/white boundary as you increase the 
-b threshold, but 25 looked ok to me

                  you can put the

                  mri_normalize -b 20

                  line in a file, and use it as the expert options in recon-all 
to rerun autorecon2-cp and

                              yes, that is the right command line. I don't know 
if you will need more
                        control points, but
                              that helped a lot. -a specifies the intensity 
threshold above 110 and -g
                        specifies the
                              spatial gradient for the 1d normalization

                                    a) The mri_normalization command line is 
where control points starts
                                    (normalization2). Right?
                                    b) Also, is this right command " 
mri_normalize -mprage -b 20 -aseg
                                    aseg.presurf.mgz -mask brainmask.mgz
                                    norm.mgz brain.mgz"?
                                    c) Do I need any other flag besides -b?

point edits right? 
                                    e) Lastly, what does -a (float a) and -g

                                          I got significantly improved results 
using -b 20 on the
                        mri_normalize
                                    command line. Note
                                          that this has to come after the 
mprage. I think you can do it
                        with an
                                    expert options file
                                          with:

                                          mri_normalize -b 20
