Bruce,

Thanks for the input. We use a 32 channel head coil with two elements: an
anterior one, and a posterior one. Thus, half of the coil was inactive. I
ran the subject through the standard recon -all just to see what happened,
and it looks like there were some significant errors (see attached image as
an example). I will have to try it with anterior control points on and see
if we get a better result. In the end, it looks like we may just have to
bring this subject back in to re-do the scan.

Thanks!

James
