Hi, I'm planning to use mri_convert to convert a large number of analyze images into COR format. To test the orientation, I first ran the command on an image with a pill marking the right side. When I did this, the resulting COR files were reversed in the left-right dimension (in tkmedit, the r coordinates got lower as I moved the cursor towards the side with the pill, and when I ran recon-all stage1, the side with the pill was created as the left-hemisphere surface).

 

What option should I add to the mri_convert command to correct the left & right orientation? Right now, I'm using:

 

mri_convert --in_type analyze subj/mri/orig/file.img subj/mri/orig

 

Thanks,
