Hi Bruce,

How can I check if I have the correct orientation ? The initial image look as classical T1 weighted.

I have the problem only on one subject above all, so that sounds like an exception ?

Best regards,

Matthieu

did it have the correct orientation? Can you explain what the initial images were? Usually if you start from dicoms right from the scanner with a reasonable scan this isn't a problem so if it's happening frequently then it may be that something else is wrong.

cheers
Bruce

Hi Bruce,

Do you have an idea of what to do concerning this problem (below) ? I have
re-run with -notal-check and it worked not for all cases

      Hi Bruce,

I tried to follow the tutorial :
http://freesurfer.net/fswiki/FsTutorial/Talairach_freeview

But nothing appeared in the image window of tkregister2 command...
Below you'll find the log of the command :

I have checked that my input volume has the correct direction cosines.

Could you explain me what's wrong ?

Thanks !

      Hi Matthieu

      did you check the talairach registration as suggested?
      ALso, make sure that your input volume has the correct
      direction cosines (that is, that what freeview thinks is
      anterior is actually anterior, etc...)
      cheers
      Bruce
