Hello,
The Freesurfer segmentation for hypointensities is very good, but misses on some subjects, i.e. it does not include large chunks of hypointense regions in some subjects. It does fantastic picking up the periventricular hypointensities, but appears to fail on some deep WM regions. I just stumbled on an archived message that mentioned an unreleased tool that can use other contrasts to improve segmentation.
Is the tool close to being available, by any chance? Or any suggestions for improving our segmentations for these?
Many thanks, - Eli
