Hi,
I am running recon-all on Freesurfer version 6. Few of my subject's have XL defect error as shown below.
CORRECTING DEFECT 0 (vertices=18408, convex hull=3300, v0=0) XL defect detected...
This has been running for more than a day.
How can I fix this error? Please give me some commands to solve this issue.
Looking forward to hearing from you
Thanks and Regards Devika K

Hi
I found this tutorial helpful
https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/FsTutorial/TopologicalDefect_freev...
I was able to correct a defect of similar size (18k+ vertices) corresponding to a “huge periventricular heterotopia” according to clinical colleague.
In particular the paint bucket with the option to fill multiple slices make it quite easier to paint in in the whole thing. Then save the image and run commands as in the tutorial.
Cheers, Marmaduke

Hi Devika
these types of huge defects usually mean something dramatic has gone wrong with e.g. the skull stripping. Even if it completes it is unlikely to generate accurate surfaces. Check the ?h.inflated.nofix and ?h.orig.nofix over the wm.mgz and you will likely find the issue quicky cheers Bruce On Fri, 31 Jan 2020, Devika K wrote:
