Hi All,
I am working in ALS dementia patients where there is ventricle enlargement and more CSF filling when compared with controls. Since i am new to freesurfer and my knowledge of anatomy is limited i would like to clarify the following. Pial surface in right and left cerebral cortex looks suspicious to me, the brain extraction step left out some non brain regions, i tried to edit them but since some of the non brain regions are close to brain regions i didn't do too much editing for the fear of removing brain regions. I have attached a screen shot image in one of our subjects, kindly tell me whether the pial surface looks ok if not any suggestions to correct this problem.
Thanks in advance

Hi Venkat,
the image looks ok, but it's hard to tell from a single slice or two and not being able to change the window levels. If you want to ftp a subject to us we're happy to take a look and let you know what we think.
