Dear all,
I've had some trouble feeding a flip angle map into mri_ms_fitparms. If I don't provide it, the estimates look fine; with the FA map however, all brain voxels in the resultant T1.mgz are set to 50000. I've checked that all images are registered, and the nominal values in the FA map look good to me. I'm running Freesurfer 5.1.0
Here's the output:
johannes$ mri_ms_fitparms -afi B1Map_in_degrees.mgz DESPOT_FA_18.mgz DESPOT_FA_4.mgz t1_fs

Any thoughts on what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks for your help,
