I used the command below to check the brain mask relative to the subject's anatomy:

tkmedit myla_anat orig.mgz -over Subjects/myla/bold/masks/brain.nii.gz

The mask looked fine in that no portion of the brain appeared to lie outside the mask.

It could be that the brain mask is too aggressive. Try looking at Subjects/myla/bold/RRR/masks/brain.nii.gz

Hi Bruce,

After unpacking the data, I simply run the selxavg command below and allow it to do the automatic pre-processing.

selxavg3-sess -s Subjects/myla -a LOC_fsaverage_5p3.rh

The analysis was generated with the following command:

mkanalysis-sess -analysis LOC_fsaverage_5p3.rh -surface fsaverage rh -fwhm 5 -paradigm LOC.par -event-related -polyfit 1 -gammafit 2.25 1.25 -mcextreg -TR 2.000 -nconditions 2 -refeventdur 16 -per-run -force -fsd bold

After fixing up the registration I saved the registration file under :Subjects/myla/bold/014/register.dof6.dat" and ran bbregister for all the runs within the subject folder as below.

bbregister --mov Subjects/myla/bold/015/f.nii --reg Subjects/myla/bold/015/register.dof6.dat --init-reg Subjects/myla/bold/014/register.dof6.dat --bold

I then ran the selxavg3-sess again.

Let me know if you need any more information to help.

Thanks!
Cesar

    Hi Cesar

    what command lines did you run to register and sample?

        Hello freesurfer experts,
        The functional overlay for one of our subjects looks like the
        image attached. You'll notice
        the "holes" on the overlay that have a value of 0. I'm trying
        to get ride of these as I
        expect (as with other subjects) to have values for these
        vertices that are not 0. Myself and
        a colleague have tried improving the registration as much as
        we see possible, but the problem
        remains. Any tips on how to correct this issue would be
        greatly appreciated.

        Thanks in advance for your help!
