That subjects looks like a candidate for exclusion, because the SNR anteriorly is much less than posteriorly. It looks to me like there is either a problem with your head coil, or the anterior coil elements were not active.

Subject: [Freesurfer] Ghosting Artifact
Hello,
I have a T1 weighted scan with a semi-severe ghosting artifact, and recon-all is not able to complete the reconstruction process (according to recon-all log, it tries to fix 237 defects and at defect 209 the recon stops).
Is there anything that I can do to recover the scan so I can reconstruct it successfully? (I have attached a few pics indicating the artifact).
Thanks in advance for your time!
Best,
Panos
