I have used both CAT12 and Freesurfer to segment a particular brain scan and I get completely different volumes.

CAT12 (cc) Freesurfer 7.3.2 (cc)
Left Cerebral WM(cc): 209 242
Left Cerebral Cortex (cc): 444 269
Left Lateral Ventricle (cc): 28 43
Right Cerebral WM (cc): 208 242
Right Cerebral Cortex (cc): 440 270
Right Lateral Ventricle (cc): 20 28
Total 1350 1095
Total volume (cc): 1618.09 1309
1852
What could be causing this difference?

The brain scan was done with MPRAGE protocol with 176x256x256 voxels of size 1mmx0.976mmx0.976mm

Which one is correct?

The scan is of a normal adult male aged 62 with chronic migraine.

Resent because table did not work well
