Dear all,

I set out to perform a longitudinal analysis of hippocampal subfields. I have already edited the cross and/or the bases when necessary and obtained the longs.

Then I have obtained the hippocampal subfields by the automated pipeline: recon-all -s <subject> -hippocampal-subfields-T1.

Now I am going to create the qdec table to proceed with the analysis, but I don't know whether I have to smooth the data by recon-all -long <tpid> <baseid> -qcahe before the analysis, or given that hippocampal subregions have been extracted by using its own pipeline it is not necessary to do any smoothing.

Thanks
