you should also plot them on the same axes (or at the very least with the same limits)

Hi Pradeep,

is this the result of a single subject? In a single subject lot's of things
can happen (e.g. motion artefacts can affect a single time point, other
imaging or measurement noise will have effects). Also how far are the time
points apart? Run the same thing with 20 subjects and you should see
significantly reduced variablility in the longitudinal stream vs the cross
sectional one.

Best, Martin

      Hello All, 
I have pre-processed a subject that has T1 scans at 3 time points
using the freesurfer cross-sectional and longitudinal methods. The
results show a lot of variability. I have attached the plots. Any
advice would be much appreciated. 
Thanks,
Pradeep
