Hey experts,

Thank you very much for your advice!

So I guess my best guess would be to use recon-all with -nuintensitycor-3T
and add an expert option file for "-b 20" and "-n 5".
These flags belong to the "mri_normalize" binary?

Best regards
Thomas

Hi Michael

that's a good thought. Let me talk to Nick, and see if we should default to it and have a 1.5T flag instead

Yes, that flag still works in 5.1.
Bruce, think these parameters could be default in 5.2?  It's a long extra
flag (that is, I imagine, someone arcane knowledge) for what has to be the
overwhelmingly modal field strength these days.

Sorry to hijack, but this would be nice!

Cheers,
Michael

      Hi Thomas, 
The following message posted by Michael Harms
http://www.mail-archive.com/freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/msg20991.html
has some very useful options. I recently noticed that they help us
with a very similar problem...

Also, I recall that for FS v5.0 there was a flag -nuintensitycor-3T
for "optimal parameters for nu_correct for 3T scans"
(as described in release notes for v5.0.)

Bruce, the -nuintensitycor-3T is still available in v5.1 right? 
If yes, then we could combine the options the two set of options and
run recon-all with "-b 20 -n 5 and  -nuintensitycor-3T"  for 
the 3T scans? Would this be reasonable or does this combination not
recommended ?

Thanks
Mehul

      Hey Experts,

      As you can see from the picture, the autorecon does not
      work properly (for WM/Pial surfs) with my files:
      Especially in the temporal lobes.

      I am working with the SPGR files of a 3T GE Machine.
      Is there any way to optimize the autorecon results for
      SPGRs?
      (Except the lavish application of CPs.)
