Hi all,
Ah, good to know that there is a Talairach accuracy problem.  What have
other groups been doing about this?  Do you think it makes sense to
manually edit much of our data?  From what we've seen so far (registering
to ages 3-9 so more errors expected) about 25% of our data have the
registration sufficiently far off to push the TARGET volume (our subject's
volume and the green lines in the pictures
http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/FsTutorial/Talairach) outside of
the skull.
Thanks,
-Eric
