Thank you for your help!
I will re-run this brain and see if it reads all 53 control points and then let you know the outcome. However, the last time I ran this brain with this control point set, it only read 22 control points. ________________________________________ From: Bruce Fischl [fischl@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu] Sent: Monday, October 07, 2013 3:28 PM To: Francesco Siciliano Subject: RE: brain.mgz and control.dat attached
but it should say "reading 53 control points". Can you verify whether this is or is not the case? And also please cc the list so that others can answer! On Mon, 7 Oct 2013, Francesco Siciliano wrote:
I can run it again - but it has already been run with the current control point set (apparently with 53 points) and some of the points have not been successful for some reason. ________________________________________ From: Bruce Fischl [fischl@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu] Sent: Monday, October 07, 2013 2:55 PM To: Francesco Siciliano Subject: Re: brain.mgz and control.dat attached
hmmm, and you reran after this? There are 53 points in it. Can you run autorecon2-cp and see if it now reads 53 control points? On Mon, 7 Oct 2013, Francesco Siciliano wrote:

can you email me the control.dat and the brain.mgz?

In the control.dat file it says numpoints 53. Is that referring to control points? Because I certainly don't have that many! I counted about 28 when I loaded the control.dat file onto the brainmask volume. ________________________________________ From: Bruce Fischl [fischl@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu] Sent: Monday, October 07, 2013 2:14 PM To: Francesco Siciliano Cc: freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu Subject: RE: [Freesurfer] [FreeSurfer] control points
and how many do you see in the control.dat file? Sounds like they aren't getting saved to disk somehow.... On Mon, 7 Oct 2013, Francesco Siciliano wrote:
I counted at least 28 control points on the brainmask when I loaded the set and my log indicates that freesurfer read 22 control points. I've attached part of the log below.
