Hi Rongxiang,

looks good. You seemed to need a lot of different types of edits though, usually you don't really need to edit much.
Surfaces in the base should be as accurate as possible, so you should fix topological defects there.

Best, Martin

Dear All,

I was would like to double check the order of edits for longitudinal data. I did edits for my cross-sectional data, and for my base data, I did the following:

1. skull strips edits (if necessary) 2. control points edits 3. white matter edits 4. pial edits 5.brain final surfs edits.

I was also wondering if correction for topological defects is needed for the base data.

Thanks,

Rongxiang
