Hi Everyone,

Back in May I was very excited to learn that there was some movement toward allowing Freesurfer to utilize the higher than 1mm iso. resolutions of some of our structural images, which could be fantastic help in subcortical segmentations. Is this something that is still in the works for the next release?

gratefully,

Joshua

Hi Joshua

sorry, I haven't found the time to really work on it. I spent a couple of hours and found some problems, but haven't found the time to fix them

Hi Bruce,

I'm just checking in to see how it turned out with the subcortical
segmentation using the high resolution images I sent.
Best,

Joshua

     you need to call mris_make_surfaces directly. It's a bit
     complicated as you need to intensity normalize and register the
     hires volume to the surfaces first. I have an example script if
     anyone is interested, but no one has used it yet but me I don't
     think (unless Matt Glasser has gotten his version working, which
     on second thought he probably has)

           Is there a flag for this on recon-all? áOr do you

           need to use
