Hi Erin
that can happen if you lose too much dynamic range when "conforming". What
does the orig.mgz look like? What voxel format is the afni file in (uchar?
float?) mri_convert has a -ns 1 flag to turn off intensity scaling ("no
scale"). If the brik was in float you could use something like (from the
mri dir)
mri_convert file.BRIK orig/001.mgz -odt uchar -rl orig.mgz --out-scale <N>
-ns
this will turn off auto scaling (-ns) then use the scale factor you supply
isntead (<N>), which you should estimate to bring white matter intensities
to around 110.
cheers

It seems like it getting darker messes up the normalization later on; could
this be the case? Here's what it looks like in AFNI (1029-afni.jpg), and
here's what it looks like after we run motioncor (1029-orig.jpg).

that will not change the intensities at all. It is probably just
a display issue. Try changing the brightness/contrast. The
artifact might cause problems later on, but this is not an
issue I think

We use:
mri_convert N1029-anat+orig.BRIK
freesurfer/mri/orig/001.mgz
where freesurfer is our freesurfer subject folder.

what is your mri_convert command line?
