Dear Freesurfer experts,<div>Our data was previously processed by Freesurfer v4.5, recently I visually checked the results and did manual correction under Freesurfer v5.0. Then ran the rest steps under Freesurfer v5.0. Here are my 2 questions.</div>
<div><br></div><div>1. Is it acceptable to run the first and second steps in previous version, then correct manually and run the rest steps in a newer version?</div><div><br></div><div>2. In some subjects, the pial surface was corrected, followed by a command <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, &#39;Lucida Grande&#39;, sans-serif; border-collapse: collapse; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px; ">-autorecon2-cp -autorecon3, so stages 21-31 were re-processed.</span></div>
<div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, &#39;Lucida Grande&#39;, sans-serif; border-collapse: collapse; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px; ">In other subjects, which wm surface was corrected, </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, &#39;Lucida Grande&#39;, sans-serif; border-collapse: collapse; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px; ">stages 15-31 were re-processed, while for those with control point added, </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, &#39;Lucida Grande&#39;, sans-serif; border-collapse: collapse; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px; "> stages 12-31 were re-processed. Then is it acceptable that different stages were processed under Freesurfer v5.0 among subjects? Can I do group analysis among these subjects?</span></div>
