sorry, the answer is pretty much "no" to both questions. We have 3D-printed surface models, but the steps for doing so aren't documented or supported. I guess the easiest thing to do would be to combine the surfaces in matlab. You'll have to add the # of vertices in one hemi to all the indices in the other (so that the indices remain unique, then concatenate them into a single surface tesselation and write it out

Subject: [Freesurfer] Expediting the pial surface calculation

Hi,

We are wondering if there is a faster way to generate lh.pial and rh.pial
than running the 24 hour long recon-all function. We took a look
at http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/ReconAllFilesVsSteps  and it
seems that the inputs for lh.pial and rh.pial are needed from the recon-all
output. We were wondering how difficult it would be to generate a custom
script to significantly decrease the amount of time needed to generate these
two surfaces. Is there someone we can talk to who might be interested in
doing this?

Also, we are wondering if there is an object in Freesurfer that handles the
entire brain as one object instead of as two separate hemispheres. We would
like to 3D print the entire brain at once
with accurate inter-hemisphere relationship.

Any and all advice you can provide would be most helpful.


Thanks,
Jason
