Hi, I'm trying to do surface-based cross-subject analysis on a quite large group of participants, but I've been having unexpected problems with holes remaining on the finished surface. They aren't detected with euler's number, but they create problem areas when I try to convert the surfaces to a standard mesh using another program (SUMA), and produce visible distortions on the sphere.reg. When I go back to freesurfer, I can find the holes by opening the sphere and zooming in on the problem area, and as far as I can tell it usually turns out to be a single voxel causing the problem, rather than a large area that should have been manually edited. Is there any automated way to correct these defects with freesurfer, since trying to manually fix them would be extremely inefficient? Thanks.

PS - I have some jpeg examples I can send if it would be helpful, but didn't attach them because of the list's limitation on email size.
