Dear Bruce, I needed the label maps for other registration purposes to run other software. So I was thinking if freesurfers outputs one I can use the same one instead of creating new ones.
Thanks for the suggestion and time, I will try to binarize the brainmask. Thanks again Best Regards, Sarina ________________________________________ From: freesurfer-boun...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu [freesurfer-boun...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu] on behalf of Bruce Fischl [fis...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu] Sent: Wednesday, October 19, 2016 10:53 AM To: Freesurfer support list Subject: Re: [Freesurfer] Question regarding: Binary label map to skull strip brains sure, internally at times but most of the volumes we save have a bit more info than that. Is there some reason you need something to actually be binary? You could binarize the brainmask if you wanted cheers Bruce On Wed, 19 Oct 2016, Karmacharya, Sarina wrote: > Thank you Bruce. > > Does freesurfer use any binary label map during any processing steps? > > Best Regards, > Sarina > > ________________________________________ > From: freesurfer-boun...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu > [freesurfer-boun...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu] on behalf of Bruce Fischl > [fis...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu] > Sent: Wednesday, October 19, 2016 10:48 AM > To: Freesurfer support list > Subject: Re: [Freesurfer] Question regarding: Binary label map to skull strip > brains > > Hi Sarina > > the skull stripping is done by combining a deformable surface with a > watershed algorithm not with a label mask.
