Can you try re-run that freeview command again? I remember I saw similar problem once, but somehow I could not reproduce it when I re-run the same command. If you can positively reproduce it, would it be possible to send us all the files that are used in the command?

Hi all,

 

I am new with freesurfer, and I found a problem when processing some data following the instruction online.

When I checked the surfaces of these two timepoint together using freeview (follow the instruction online), it showed this abnormal spike on the white mater surface of my time point two scan. (fig 1, left, clear version: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/4825915/fig1.png)

freeview -v SMART001aT1.long.SMART001T1/mri/norm.mgz \

            SMART001bT1.long.SMART001T1/mri/norm.mgz \

         -f SMART001aT1.long.SMART001T1/surf/lh.pial:edgecolor=red \

            SMART001aT1.long.SMART001T1/surf/lh.white:edgecolor=blue \

            SMART001bT1.long.SMART001T1/surf/lh.pial:edgecolor=255,128,128 \

            SMART001bT1.long.SMART001T1/surf/lh.white:edgecolor=lightblue \

 

 

However, it was wired that I couldn’t see this spike when I opened them in tkmedit. (fig1, right, https://dl.dropbox.com/u/4825915/fig1.png)

tkmedit SMART001bT1.long.SMART001T1 brainmask.mgz -aux wm.mgz surfs

 

Further, if I inspected only the two surfaces of my time two data, there is no such spike at the same point. (fig2, clear version:  https://dl.dropbox.com/u/4825915/fig2.png)

freeview -v SMART001bT1.long.SMART001T1/mri/norm.mgz \

         -f SMART001bT1.long.SMART001T1/surf/lh.pial:edgecolor=255,128,128 \

            SMART001bT1.long.SMART001T1/surf/lh.white:edgecolor=lightblue \

 

So I am not sure whether these spikes are bugs when using freeview, or actually some registration error that need me to edit. Can some help me to confirm it? Or, did anyone come across this problem before?

 

Thanks
