Hi Chunhui
you should not need to reorient your data. What version are you using?
cheers,
Bruce

Hello Bruce, and Freesurfers,

Sorry for asking an old question, but I really need more confirmation.

I am running recon-all to processing my structural data, but i am not sure do I 
have to reorient the data or not. The data were acquired in sagital view, and 
dicom data were converted into nift format using dcm2nii, the transformed nii 
file (called original image below) are in wrong orienation, in fslview, it's X 
axis is acturally from anterior to posterior, the Y, Z  axises were also wrong. 
dcm2nii also created a o*.nii image, which is in right orientation. I run 
recon-all using both images, and the results (volume for each region) are a 
little bit different, about 0.25%, for example, volume of a brain rigion got 
with original image is 2000 , but got with o*.nii image is 1995. It's not a big 
problem, but since they are exactly the same data, why the results are not 
exactly the same? is it better to use original image or even dicom files or to 
use reoriented data? the resolution of my data is 1*1*2 mm.

Another related quetion is, if data are left-right fliped, do I have to
flip the raw data and run recon-all again or can I just flip left-right of results, i.e., consider volume got for a left region as that of the corresponding right region? >
Thank you very much!

no, that shouldn't matter

before I run recon-all? In fslview, it's X axis is acturally from anterior to

Thanks!

How do you know? It should be in the same space.

I have run the following command to create a 001.mgz file from raw
*.dcm
data:

recon-all -s   <subjid  > -i   <path to *.dcm data  >

The output 001.mgz file is not in the same native space as the
original
*.dcm data. Could anyone tell me what space the 001.mgz file is in?
Does
the above command change the orientation (i.e does it rotate/
translate)
besides simply converting from .dcm to 001.mgz

thanks a lot
