Hi,
We have done tracula tractography on 180 subjects, and most of the isosurfaces look a lot noisier than the example on the Tracula wiki (see fminor in attached figure). Is there any way to gauge the noisiness of a reconstructed path? And can that information be used for quality control? For instance, here (https://neuro.ebioscience.amc.nl/portal/web/nsg/tracula) they do not accept a noisy fminor (not unlike ours).
Another source of information on outliers is the log files that are produced when running -trac-all -stat (based on the shape of the tract). It doesn't seem to flag tracts that are (almost) completely missing (see attached figure, which was not flagged in lh.cab_PP.avg33_mni_bbr.log). Do they fall under the minimum threshold and are therefore not evaluated? Is it recommended to automatically exclude the subjects that are flagged as outliers here?
Thank you!
