Dear FreeSurfer community,
After running FreeSurfer on almost a hundred subjects, I have encountered just two that have strange surface reconstructions. I have re-ran them from scratch hoping it would rectify this problem but to no avail. I have not done anything different with these subjects and the rest turned out okay. I have attached an image to show you what I mean. Any suggestions about why this happens and how it can be fixed would be great!
Thanks in advance,
Deirdre
Hi Deirde
you need to give the attachments an extension so that we know what format they are.

Hi Deirdre, It looks like your skullstrip failed and left a lot of the neck which was mistaken for the cerebellum. The actual cerebellum was incorporated into your surfaces. Take a look at the wiki page below for how you might go about fixing this case.

it also looks like your image is strangely squashed. DId you process the dicoms right from the scanner? I wonder whether your voxel sizes were incorrect On Tue, 19 Feb 2013, Louis Nicholas Vinke wrote:
