1,recon-all ?Cautorecon1 (Stages 1-5)
2,Check talairach transform, skull strip, normalization (?)
3,recon-all ?Cautorecon2 (Stages 6-23)
4,Check surfaces
(1)Add control points: recon-all ?Cautorecon2 (Stages 10-23)
(2)Edit wm.mgz: recon-all ?Cautorecon2-wm (Stages 13-23)
(3)Edit brainmask.mgz: recon-all ?Cautorecon-pial (Stage 23)
5,recon-all ?Cautorecon3 (Stages 24-30)
Note: all stages can be run individually
(this note was also from the slice)
But on the trouble shooting wiki page
http://freesurfer.net/fswiki/FsTutorial/TroubleshootingData , the order is
1, edit brain mask
2, edit wm volume
3, correcting topological defects
4, skull strip
5, control point
6, talairach transformation
7, edit aseg
My quesion is, shouldn't I stick to the stages 1-30 order? I mean, I think
results from earlier stages will influence later stages, so once an earlier
stage output was edited, all the following steps should re-run, right? why
talairach transformation can be checked later, which I think one
should redo nearly every thing, right?
Or, are the 7 trouble shooting steps independ from each other, and I
can edit in any order i want then re-run all necessary steps?
For example, should I edit wm and brian mask together, then run
recon-all ?Cautorecon2, or should I edit wm and run
recon-all ?Cautorecon2 then edit brainmask and run
recon-all ?Cautorecon-pial?
Thanks for any help!
Best~
