Hi All, I regret to inform you that we are recalling 7.0.0 because we 
found some small issues with the way that conforming step was being 
performed. The conforming step takes your input volume and converts it 
to 256x256x256 1mm and converts the type to UCHAR (8 bit). When 
converting to UCHAR, it has to do some intensity rescaling. The method 
for doing this was changed in 7.0.0. In most data sets, this results in 
small changes to the output. However, we just discovered that it can 
result in large problems in some data sets, so, for 7.1.0, we are 
reverting back to the pre-7.0.0 method. Going forward, we recommend that 
people NOT use 7.0.0 and use 7.1.0 instead. We apologize for any 
inconvenience this has caused. We hope that not many data sets have been 
analyzed yet in the 11 days since the release. I'd like to thank our 
research assistant Devani Cordero for ferreting out this problem.
