Thanks Andrew!

Yes, it seems like something is really wrong with this scan:

/autofs/space/frieda_003/users/valia/epilepsy_clin/5545419_1449/3D/dicom/IM-0001-0001.dcm

I’ll try to find another sequence.

Thanks!

Hi Noam,

Do the volumes look okay? I’m seeing a lot of ‘non-orthogonal axes’ warnings in the log. If that’s not the issue, this could be a bug that’s randomly occurring with parallel recons in v7. Although, I’ve never seen it fail during mri_convert. Can you try to rerun? It might succeed the second time. If not, can you send us the input scan and try again without the -parallel flag.

best

Andrew

Subject: [Freesurfer] error: MatrixMultiply: m1 is null

Dear FreeSurfer community,

I encountered a recon-all error where I couldn’t find on the web.

The error message is: “error: MatrixMultiply: m1 is null!”. You can find the complete log attached.

I used the stable7.1.1 version.

Thanks,

Noam
