Thanks, Bruce. The problem is fairly extensive. There is no way to do normalize grey matter intensity (the white surface looks pretty good)?

Hi Caspar

try putting control points in the white matter where the pial surface doesn't get out far enough.

cheers

Hi Freesurfer Experts,
I am working on a fairly noisy and inhomogeneous MPRAGE T1 and I am having
trouble getting the pial surface to go all the way through the grey matter.
Please see screenshot attached. These data were acquired with a surface coil
and the grey matter varies a lot in intensity. Interestingly, the pial
surface growing process fails where the grey matter is fairly dark. I have
tried several rounds of normalizing using the N3 tool but that didn't change
anything.
Thanks for any advice on this, Caspar
