Hi Bruce,

Yes Brain_FS.mgz is a segmented volume. It’s not a MRI image, and the size
is about 3000x2000x140. (We obtained this brain image using different
imaging methods)

Our machine has 16GB RAM.

Thanks,

Younghoon Kim

is Brain_FS.mgz a segmented volume? How much memory do you have on that
machine?
