Dear Freesurfer team,

The issue with that is that on fsl I would need to skull strip the image that I want to input for the registration. The reference image doesn't have to be skull stripped, but the input image has to be skull stripped.

When I take the skull stripped image as my reference image and input the T1 MNI image, the registration isn't successful, i.e. the image seems warped.

Thank you,

Best Wishes,

Gaurav Ambwani.

you can compute the registration with the skull-stripped image, and then apply the registration to the whole head image

Dear Freesurfer team,

I can't put the whole head into FSL for registration, I have to put the skull stripped version into FSL. I have to put in the skull stripped head because the MNI_freesurfer_T1.nii.gz is registered to the stroke patient's T1 weighted image.

Using the I want the aseg, aparc, etc. files to be derived from the MNI_freesurfer_T1.nii.gz image. And for some reason it isn't working. I hope that this clarifies what I was trying to do.

Thank you,

Sorry, I'm not sure what the problem is that you are describing. I see from the recon-all file that
MNI_freesurfer_T1.nii.gz is your input. What is that? Is that after skull stripping? Why not just give it the full head?

Dear Freesurfer developers,

I took a 1mm T1 MRI of the MNI152 skull stripped it using HD brain extraction tool in 3D slicer, and then I registered it in fsl to a skull stripped version of a T1 weighted image of a Stroke patient (which I got from Openneuro).

The purpose of doing this is to, get the aseg.mgz file and overlay that onto the MRI of the stroke patient.

Previously I have taken the T1 1mm MNI image and received an aseg.mgz file which I have overlayed onto my MNI registered T1 weighted stroke MRI and that worked perfectly. However, This time I have taken the T1 1mm MNI image registered that to my stroke T1 MRI, and the registered image hasn't gone through freesurfer.

I have attached the recon-all.log file in this email.
