Re: [Freesurfer] Question about mri_convert --conform

External Email - Use Caution

This was done a long time ago to conserve space/memory. There is a rescaling that is done, so it should not affect the bias correction much

Hi Yujing,

Thanks. I am wondering about the reason why Freesurfer converts data types to uchar. Doesn't this affect the non-uniformity bias correction that follows?

Best, Ruifeng

Hi Ruifeng,

You can pass -nc (nochange) flag to mri_convert to keep the
original data type.

Hi all,

My input 001.mgz has data type short, but converted to unsigned
byte. The plot shows the intensity of thee two images. How is the
data conversion done? Thanks.

Best,

Ruifeng
