Hi Cris
it really depends on your data quality. If it's good then you might be fine most of the time. You should scroll through the slices in tkmedit with the surfaces overlaid to verify that they do indeed follow the gray/white and pial boundaries.

Hello FS-ers,
I have a beginner question.
I am wondering about editing. Since I have no superior of me in my lab to inspect or guide me in my freesurfer analyses - I get a bit worried that I might oversee some important errors from recon-all.
If there is nothing that is strikingly wrong in the output from recon-all - should I then expect my results to be good enough for group analyses?
If there is no error messages, and nothing that looks strange when I open rsults in tkmedit (for a beginner)?
How often does a reconstruction from Freesurfer need to be edited,(roughfly, on average) if you have a group of lets say 32 subjects ?
thank you so much for your help!
best regards, Cris
