Just for the record, I accidentally e-mailed you that the slice thickness was 2 mm, I now found out that the slice thickness is just 1 mm. Doety ___ Freesurfer mailing list Freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu

Hi Bruce, Thanks for your answer. I was trying to use the fsl segment in freesurfer indeed. But since I couldn't get that working, I am now trying to do the trick with mri_segment. Sorry to ask you again, but I still have troubles with mri_segment. So I am trying to use the -wm_low flag to

Hi Doety for mri_segment the options have to come before the required arguments not at the end of the command line. cheers Bruce On Wed, 16 Jul 2014, Doety Prins wrote: Hi Bruce, Thanks for your answer. I was trying to use the fsl segment in freesurfer indeed. But since I couldn't get that

Hi Bruce, Thanks for your reply. Yes I realize now that this is causing me the troubles. But since fsl is able to do a good segmentation, I think Freesurfer should also be able to do this? I am now using MRI_segment, in which I want to set new limits for the white matter, but it doesn't seem to

Hi Doety our segmentation assumes we can resolve cortex as it used an adaptive filtering that estimates the orientation of the gray/white boundary in spatial neighborhoods. It may be more sensitive to low resolution than FSL. Not sure if anyone has a script for importing FSL segmentations into

Hi Doety that is a very low contrast-to-noise image. Can you give us more details on the acquisition? The matrix was 256x256, what is the slice thickness? And the other parameter (sequence name? TR/TR/flip angle? acceleration?) cheers Bruce On Thu, 10 Jul 2014, Doety Prins wrote: Hi

the 2mm slice thickness is going to be problematic and is probably why you lose so much cortical constrast. Typically we don't recommend using anything more than 1.5 and really no reason these days not to get closer to 1mm (for example, you can get a very nice 1.25mmx1.25x1mm mprage in a bit

Hi Bruce, Thanks for your reply. In my previous e-mail I already tried to attach one of my subjects, but got the response that the message was too big, and therefore it was rejected. So how should I upload the image? The images are T1-weighted, 3D, acquired with a 3T scanner, resolution 256

Hi Doety, Consider these options for uploading data: https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/FtpFileExchange https://www.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/facility/filedrop/index.html I think recon-all is expecting your wm.mgz to be conformed or 256^3. Something like: mri_convert wm.mgz wm.conform.mgz
