I doubt any of them will work as they don't have enough slices/files, meaning either the resolution is way too low or the FOV is not whole brain. You typically need at least 128 slices in some T1-weighted volume to get high enough resolution (e.g. <1.5mm or so) cheers Bruce On Fri, 14 Nov 2014

That list gives you each acquisition and the protocol used to collect it. You chose one (or more) and pass a single file to recon-all with -i; recon-all will find the rest of the files in that series. As to which series you need, it is hard to say since I did not collect the data :). I'm guess

Yes, but you need to set the number of erodes. Each erode will be 1mm, and you just need to erode enough to avoid partial voluming, so 2 is probably fine. The more you erode, the smaller your ROI gets (and it can disappear). On 11/14/2014 02:05 PM, Bruce Fischl wrote: > I think so, but I defe
