External Email - Use Caution
Dear Freesurfer team,
Sorry for sending the emails in a such a patchy format.
I took the T1 MNI image and registered that to the patient MRI. I did this without skull stripping in FSL. It seems to have worked pretty well.
I ran the T1 MNI registered but not skull stripped through recon-all and seems to have given me an aseg.mgz file that is registered to my patient MRI.
However, since FSL mentions that it is necessary to skull strip before registration I am not certain that it would work each time. I will probably send an email to FSL regarding this too.
If you have a workaround based on my previous emails please do let me know.
Thank you, Best Wishes, Gaurav Ambwani. ________________________________ From: Gaurav Ambwani ga62@st-andrews.ac.uk Sent: Tuesday, June 25, 2024 5:30 PM To: Freesurfer support list freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu Subject: Re: [Freesurfer] MRI watershed error
Dear Freesurfer team,
I also wanted to point out that I do the skull stripping in Slicer using the "HD brain extraction tool", after which I save the file as a .nii file then put it into FSL for FLIRT linear registration with the patient MRI. Since I am trying to register the T1 MNI image to the patient MRI.
Could I do the skull stripping and registration and then individually run the autorecon2, autorecon2-cp, autorecon-wm etc. steps subsequently in order. Do you think that this would be feasible.
Thank you, Best Wishes, Gaurav Ambwani. ________________________________ From: Gaurav Ambwani ga62@st-andrews.ac.uk Sent: Tuesday, June 25, 2024 12:31 PM To: Freesurfer support list freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu Subject: Re: [Freesurfer] MRI watershed error
Dear Freesurfer team,
I can't put the whole head into FSL for registration, I have to put the skull stripped version into FSL. I have to put in the skull stripped head because the MNI_freesurfer_T1.nii.gz is registered to the stroke patient's T1 weighted image.
Using the I want the aseg, aparc, etc. files to be derived from the MNI_freesurfer_T1.nii.gz image. And for some reason it isn't working. I hope that this clarifies what I was trying to do.
Thank you, Best Wishes, Gaurav Ambwani. ________________________________ From: freesurfer-bounces@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu freesurfer-bounces@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu on behalf of Douglas N.

Sorry, I'm not sure what the problem is that you are describing. I see from the recon-all file that
MNI_freesurfer_T1.nii.gz is your input. What is that? Is that after skull stripping? Why not just give it the full head?

Dear Freesurfer developers,
I took a 1mm T1 MRI of the MNI152 skull stripped it using HD brain extraction tool in 3D slicer, and then I registered it in fsl to a skull stripped version of a T1 weighted image of a Stroke patient (which I got from Openneuro).
The purpose of doing this is to, get the aseg.mgz file and overlay that onto the MRI of the stroke patient.
Previously I have taken the T1 1mm MNI image and received an aseg.mgz file which I have overlayed onto my MNI registered T1 weighted stroke MRI and that worked perfectly. However, This time I have taken the T1 1mm MNI image registered that to my stroke T1 MRI, and the registered image hasn't gone through freesurfer.
I have attached the recon-all.log file in this email.
