External Email - Use Caution
Dear Shawn,
I can't fully answer your question, but maybe as a start:
I think the idea behind the suggestion to run recon-all on the template is that
this would allow you to map the results of the FreeSurfer thickness analysis
(which are in by default mapped to the fsaverage template if you run qcache)
back to your template. I think you could even leave fsaverage out and map
directly to it.
I have had a look at the NIFTI file you provided though (a preview image is
attached to this email for others), and it looks like it is not a complete T1
image but a scull-stripped brain only. I think simply running recon-all on the
file (you need nothing but a T1-weighted NIFTI file to run recon-all) will not
work. You could start the recon-all pipeline at a later stage (after skull
stripping), but maybe you should wait for another answer before proceeding any
further.
