no worries. That is a pretty short TR and a pretty long TE for a typical T1-weighted scan. Do you know what kind of scan it was? That is, the name of the sequence (e.g. FLASH, MPRAGE, SPGR, etc...)

Hi Bruce
Thank you very much for your swift response. Our image was 
T1-weighted, with a resolution of 240 x 240 x 160 and a field
intensity of 3 Tesla. The Sequence was TR/TE 10.66/6.04 ms.
I have attached the recon-all.log file to this mail. Sorry for 
not having supplied the required information
the first time, as I said it is my first try with freesurfer.

Cheers 

Adrian

Betreff: Re: [Freesurfer] Quality issues when running recon-all

Hi Adrian

it's impossible for us to diagnose without more information. What was the
acquisition (field strength, resolution, sequence type, etc...) and at
least send us the contents of the recon-all.log file.

cheers
Bruce
