Dear users,

We have added to the development version of FreeSurfer a tool to turn a clinical scan of any resolution and contrast intro a synthetic 1mm T1 MPRAGE that you can segment, register, etc with FreeSurfer (or any other tool, really). The tool has a dedicated mode for low-field Hyperfine scans (which are becoming increasingly popular) and also works to some extent with CT scans.

Early feedback on the tool is greatly appreciated.

Pretty picture showing what SynthSR can do: attached.

Kind regards,
