Hi Bruce,
Thank you for your reply. I am looking at differences in WM intensity, but am concerned that the intensity normalization will reduce tissue differences in addition to addressing inhomogeneity from the MRI. The WM is normalized to an average of 110, but is there any way to keep the variable intensity values for the WM?
Thanks Sabrina

Hi Sabrina
what are you trying to accomplish? This is unlikely to work well (if at all), as we depend on the normalization

Hello, I have a question about taking out the intensity normalization commands in recon-all. I want to eliminate all normalization steps so that the WM will not be set at an average of 110. Using the ReconAllDevTable (https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/ReconAllDevTable), I took out all command flags related to intensity normalization. Are these commands correct?
- I copied orig.mgz to generate nu.mgz, T1.mgz, norm.mgz.
