Hi Bruce,
Is it better to overestimate than underestimate ? Please find joined this two saggital images (FS v5.3 and FS v6_beta) of brain segmentation. Cerebellum in v6_beta really seems to go outside of its borderlines even if cerebellum in v5.3 is indeed lightly underestimated.
Looking at the cerebral cortex I found the segmentation less "smoothed" in v6_beta (with more irregularities near pial surface) than in v5.3 according to coronal views of segmentations joined.
What do you think about it ? Would you advise me to go on with the v6_beta anyway ?
Would it be better and coherent to use a more recent "nightly dev builds" of FreeSurfer for future publication ?
