Hi,

We're having trouble using mri_convert as wrapped within mne_flash_bem to
create the bem surfaces from our FLASH volumes. The script runs but the
inner_skull and outer_skull surfaces that it outputs seem to be rotated,
for example if we display the surfaces on the T1 coronal, we see what
looks like the sagittal inner_skull surface.

I'm guessing this is some kind of registration problem. I noticed that we
are getting a warning at one point in the process when the flash is being
registered with the MPRAGE, which I've pasted below.

I am wondering if this might have something to do with the switch to
version 5.0.0. For this dataset, we ran the reconstruction and all the
subsequent processing on v5.0.0. However, I have gotten the exact same
error (rotated inner and outer skull surfaces) when I accidentally ran
mne_flash_bem in v5.0 with a previous dataset that was reconstructed in
v4.5.0. When I re-ran mne_flash_bem in v4.5.0 the surfaces came out
correctly for the previous dataset. But I was reluctant to try this with
my new dataset since ideally we'd like to be able to switch completely
over to v5.0.0.

Thanks,
Ellen
