That is the right mincost (you can also find it in the .mincost file),
and that cost is very good. Maybe too good. Make sure to look at the
registration.
I don't know why things are not changing when you left right reverse.
Try doing the flip with mri_convert
mri_convert lowb.nii lowb.lrrev.nii --left-right-reverse-pix

Hi Doug, sorry to email again.
I just tested the bbregister --surf-cost method by registering a
subject's 001.mgz (T1) with it's lowb.nii and lowbflipped.nii
(intentionally L-R flipped). They both gave me the same final cost
function, the 0.2305 highlighted below.
I verified that the lowbflipped is flipped in Mango: lowb.nii is
X+,Y-,Z+; lowbflipped.nii is X-,Y-,Z+. However, mri_info says the
orientation for both is RPS. I am not sure what this means.
Please help,
Daniel

Hi Doug, thanks for the tip. I'm making a script to go in and grab
the final cost from each subject's registration and display it in a
table. Just to make sure, have I highlighted the correct Cost
function below? This is from the log file produced by bbregister
--surf-cost
Thanks again, Daniel

you can run bbregister using the b=0 image as input. The final cost
function value should beless than .9, if it is more than that then it
probably means you have an LR flip.

Dear Freesurfers,
I am trying to perform probabilistic tractography (FSL Probtrackx)
between seed and target VOIs made with Freesurfer's recon-all (T1)
and dt_recon (DW) pipelines.
I have the original T1 DICOMs, however, I only have the DW NIFTI
image volumes. I do not know how the DW DICOMS were converted to
NIFTI and am worried about L-R flipping.
Within Mango, I have found the T1 images converted with mri_convert
are (X+,Y-,Z+). The DW NIFTI is (Y-,Z-,X-). mri_info gives me a
lot of information that, unfortunately, I do not entirely understand.
Can you recommend a way for me to verify consistent orientation in
both my T1 and DW images? Thank you!
Cheers,
Daniel
