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.

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 Clas The information in this e-mail is intended only for the person to whom it is addressed.
