Hello,
  I am getting defects in the volume output of freesurfer with respect to the 
pial surface and whilte-matter surface boundary. I am wanting to measure the 
cortical thickness after running recon_all. I was inspecting the pial and white 
surface using tkmedit and  I noticed (volume data view using tkmedit) that in 
most of my subjects the freesurfer has included non-cortical matter (ex: 
cerebellar regions) as cortical matter and have excluded several white matter 
voxels.  I use brainmask volume loaded as main volume and white matter volume 
loaded as aux volume to inspect the final pial and white surfaces. These 
defects are more clearly visible when I get the subcortical segmentation in on 
mode to be viewed or when I am viewing the  pial/white surface  boundaries in 
the images where brainmask is loaded as main volume with T1.mgz as the aux 
volume and subcortical segmantation in on mode.   Interestingly such defects 
were found in same regions across the subject  and are present in more than one 
section. If what I am seeing are defects, this would be require too much 
editing.
  I am very new to freeSurfer, please advise.
Rashmi.
