IntraCranial volume is based entirely on the determinant of the talairch 
transform.  We don’t check the accuracy of that transform because it doesn’t 
even need to be accurate for FreeSurfer to generate correct surfaces and 
segmentations.

So, frankly, I wouldn’t use the IntraCranial volume estimate.

Cheers,

Subject: [HCP-Users] intracranial volume < brain volume!

Hi,

I noticed that the intracranial volume (FS_IntraCranial_Vol) is lower than 
total brain volume (FS_BrainSeg_Vol) in the following subjects:

104012

109830

118124

121820

139637

140420

163836

190132

202820

204521

208428

561242

701535

867468


checked one subject, structural looks good:
PastedGraphic-1.tiff<cid:556F2A07-3018-4AFA-96B1-F3A00C3CCF93>

Any ideas as to what might be going on?

best
