Hi Bruce,
Thank you for your prompt response! Sorry for my novice questions - does T1-weighted scan with voxels have to be in a specific format like jpg, dicom or mesh format?

Hi Ankita

sure, we compute GI. You need to get a good T1-weighted scan with voxels
that are about 1mm isotropic, then run it through our recon-all script

cheers
