External Email - Use Caution        

Bruce,

I've uploaded one of the failed subject to surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu ftp server (named t1.nii.gz).Thank you for looking into this problem.

Hi Soichi

mri_deface isn't really supported anymore, but if you upload a subject
that fails I'll take a look. I would have thought in the ABCD subject age
range it would work

cheers
