Hello, I would like to convert a legacy dataset into CIFTI format. The legacy dataset lacks T2-weighted images or field maps. How does the HCP advise that investigators go about converting legacy data into CIFTI format? I assume this must be possible, as we can use FreeSurfer to convert to flat maps with such data...
For the structural data, the PreFreeSurfer pipeline requires both a T1w and a T2w image, so it can not be used on the legacy dataset. One can run the T1w images through FreeSurfer’s recon-all to approximate the HCP FreeSurfer pipeline for lower-resolution data. However, the PostFreeSurfer pipeline requires additional input files (e.g., T1w_acpc_dc_restore.nii.gz) that are not included in the FreeSurfer output. Is there a reasonably straightforward way of converting legacy data without T2w images into CIFTI format? If not, does HCP plan to create a pipeline for preprocessing legacy data?
