The final white surface probably won't change much from the preaparc, so
it could be used to find fairly large errors.

Hi,
My main question to the 6.0 experts is:
Is the lh.white.preaparc close enough to the lh.white to determine
whether editing is needed (brainmask.mgz, wm.mgz,control points) or do
we need to run the full pipeline and get ?h.white?
Here's the reasoning behind this question. In previous versions of
Freesurfer we have run -autorecon1 -autorecon2, then checked surfaces,
made edits if needed, and then only after we were satisfied with the
surfaces we ran -autorecon3. Primarily we have done this for 2
reason, first is to save processing time, on both the initial pass and
running -autorecon2-cp or -autorecon2-wm. We also use this as a
quality control method, in which ONLY subjects whose surfaces have
been verified, have been through -autorecon3, those that haven't,
don't have stats files, and thus can't get inadvertently included with
finished data.
If ?h.white.preaparc doesn't topologically differ from the ?h.white
could we use it for determining what edits to do?
if it does differ obviously we will have to run the whole pipeline.
Thank you in advance for your guidance.
Sincerely,
Mira
