Hi Bruce,
Thanks for your reply. The orientation is correct in freeview, although, digging further, I see that that it is misoriented when I view it in tkregister2. I ran tkregister --mgz --s {subID} --fstal --surf orig, and the orig volume is shown oriented correctly, but the orig surface appears to have some of the dimensions swapped. Any idea why this might be?

Thanks for your help!

John

Hi John

does it come up in the correct orientation in freeview? If you didn't
scan it in the orientation that a person would have been lying in the
scanner, you will need to reorient the data so that we know what e.g.
anterior is

cheers
