[Freesurfer] Recon-all with Tumor lesion

External Email - Use Caution

Dear all,

I want to process brains with tumor lesions with the recon-all -all command. Recon-all (freesurfer version 6) gets always stucked when calling the function mris_fix_topology. It used to work with freesurfer version 4.5, but I still want to use the version 6.

It does work when I first run recon-all -all until it gets stucked and calculates for several days mris_fix_topology, then cancel the command and rerun with recon-all -all -nofix.

Is there a more smooth way to run recon-all for tumor lesion brains? (When I add -nofix to the recon-all command from the beginning, recon-all exits with errors, since it cannot find rh/lh.orig).

Best, Steph
