Hi Kristin
yes, if you care about putamen volume I guess you should. you can optimize the acquisition for this, or acquire multispectral (e.g. PD-weighted) data to help segment pallidum/putamen

Dear all,
For a number of my participants, Freesurfer's automated segmentation of the putamen appears to include brain matter that isn't putamen - this problem persists across 5-6 slices, on average.
I was wondering what people would recommend - should I edit the aseg?
Thank you in advance for any advice,
Kristin Javaras
