Hello FS experts, I have had a continuing curiosity regarding when/what to edit in FS cortical reconstructions. The wiki does a good job at showing how to deal with large scale problems, (i.e. invalid tal transformation, white matter not being recognized, large portions of the skull included in the surface) however I have yet to come across much that guides edits besides a "trained eye". How do we know when a problem is "big enough" that it needs attention?
Are there any tool boxes/ quantitative guidelines that may help someone determine which scans need edits? I know QA tools outputs info on SNR/white matter intensity and I have looked for outliers here. However, I was wondering how else to automate/guide the decision process. Much of the discussion I have seen on this topic in manuscripts is either vague or nonexistent.
Does anyone know of any manuscripts that have compared "raw" FS datasets to "selectively edited" datasets? What sort of effects do edits make in the grand scheme of a study? One could imagine problems with someone editing the data when they are knowledgable of the study's hypotheses and groups.
Any additional info or guidance on this topic would be much appreciated.
