Hi Laura, you would only need to run preproc multiple times if the subjects changed between analyses. If it is the same subjects in the same order, then you only need to run it once.

Hi freesurfer experts, 

I'm planning to run a few different glms on surface data using glm_fit e.g. diagnosis * age; diagnosis * age * symptoms; diagnosis * age * somebehavioral variable etc.. 

Do I have to run mris_preproc using the specific fsgd file for each glm? My data are already qcached, and it seems that there may be an option (-cache--in?) that I can use on just one mris_preproc but I'm not sure if this is correct, or what the -cache--in option does. 

Thanks! 

Laura.
