Hello,
I am very new to freesurfer and might not have seen enough surfaces to know the answer to this question. But, I went through autorecon1 and autorecon2 with my volumes, and when I looked at the surface to inspect it, I found a weird , relatively large dip around the parietal and occiptal lobes. We are only interested in occipital (we cut that plane out and flatten it), so I am concerned that this dip might interfere with the data. When I looked at that point in the editor, nothing weird or abnormal showed up. I have attached a picture of the RH, where I see this abnormal dip. Can you let me know if this is normal or not?
Also, the freesurfer manual nicely illustrates where I need to make the cuts to cut out the occipital lobe for the left hemisphere, but I don't really see any guidelines for cutting out the occipital lobe for the right hemisphere. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Kandy
