Hi Mike

sorry, I never really documented it. Essentially they provide limits on the allowable intensities of the various tissue classes at the different boundaries (gray/white and pial). Unless those constraints are satisfied it will not try to place the boundary in that region

Have a look at mris_make_surfaces.c, this is how I learned about most of
this stuff as the code is pretty well commented (and Bruce telling me
things).

Peace,

Matt.

Hi Bruce,
I was wondering if there is info somewhere about what each of those 7 MIN_
and MAX_ variables control regarding the positioning of the white and pial
surfaces?

thanks,
-MH

Hi Andrea

what is the background image? This is usually either a failure of the
intensity normalization or of the surface deformation/segmentation to
adaptively estimate the underlying intensity distributions of the
gray/white matter. If you look in recon-all.log for that subject you will
find a set of lines like:

setting MIN_GRAY_AT_WHITE_BORDER to 71.1 (was 70)
setting MAX_BORDER_WHITE to 112.0 (was 105)
setting MIN_BORDER_WHITE to 83.0 (was 85)
setting MAX_CSF to 59.1 (was 40)
setting MAX_GRAY to 100.0 (was 95)
setting MAX_GRAY_AT_CSF_BORDER to 77.0 (was 75)
setting MIN_GRAY_AT_CSF_BORDER to 47.2 (was 40)



in your case for example you will probably find that the min_border_white
is too high or tha the max_gray is too low. You can set these using the
expert opts for both mri_segment and mris_make_surfaces.

Dear Freesurfers,


After running recon-all, the wm surfaces are too close to the pial
surface,
some gray matter is segmented as white matter as seen in the attached
picture (red cross: a bigger cortical part is included in the white
matter).

How can I shrink the wm surface?

Thank you for your help!

Andrea
