I also use FS to identify subcortical atrophy with affected HD patients; have you checked the aseg, as well as white & pial surfaces for accuracy? I have found in some of my older data at lower resolution (1.5 T) that the intensities do not differ much in subcortical regions and FS has problems differentiating structures. If this is the issue, you can give FS intensity priors to go on ... Have to ask list re: exact procedure/command lines for this, as I have not experimented with this in my own data set as of yet.
