We're trying to reconstruct pial and white matter surfaces for cortical thickness analysis and sections of the gray matter are being excluded, particularly in the temporal lobes. As far as we can tell, there is no way to add this back to the pial surface...is there a solution to this problem?

If there is white matter that is being excluded from the white surface, then if that is fixed, the pial surface will grow out further and may include the gray matter originally excluded.

We can get that step to work when there's white matter, but there are areas of only gray matter that are still being excluded.
can you send us an image or upload the data? On Thu, 13 Oct 2011, Jordan Pierce wrote:

Here's an image (if I attach this correctly) of a particular instance-gray matter excluded in the temporal lobe and pial surface seeming to be below the white matter surface. This seems to be worse on subjects with motion, this one isn't too bad. How would I upload the subject file for you to look at?

Hi Jordan,
it's hard to tell from a single slice but it looks like that might be amygdala, in which case you shouldn't worry about it. In any case, you can upload and we'll take a look

Yes, it looks like amygdala.
Here are instructions for uploading the case: https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/FtpFileExchange
