Just wondering if there are any suggestions for finding a work-around when the
"global region of the brain empty" error message appears after executing the
following command: recon-all -autorecon1 -s CIP_H0519_ERR -notal-check. The T1
image (001.mgz) looks fine. The -notal-check flag was added on the 2nd
execution of recon-all due to failure at the talairach_avi stage. Same error
occurs in 2/16 subjects we have recently attempted to process using freesurfer
v405 on RHEL5.
Many Thanks for any suggestions,
Jenifer
