Dear Anastasia,

Thank you so much for the response. Interestingly, when I try to open the two 
reconstructed brains at the same time, they don't overlay. Am I correct to 
assume then that we have to run recon-all using version 7.2.0? I'm providing a 
screenshot of the simultaneously opened MRIs in the attached drobox link:

If yes, this brings me to another question: if the missing voxels from the 
BET.MASK are limited to ventricles or gray matter, and we don't correct these 
missing voxels, is TRACULA still able to run with precision and provide us with 
an accurate result? Since TRACULA is a probabilistic method and use prior 
knowledge of positions of anatomical structures with respect to each other, I 
wasn't sure that white matter reconstruction won't be affected by missing 
voxels in ventricle or gray matter. Our missing voxels in Alzheimer's Disease 
Patients are usually limited to ventricles or in extreme cases gray matter. If 
it is not affecting the white matter reconstruct and extracted metrics, we can 
skip the step that we manually fix the BET. Mask. If you suggest going ahead 
and manually correct the missing voxels from the BET mask, we will do it.

Thank you

Hi Ela - When you overlay the aparc+aseg from 6.0 and the one from 7.2, is
there a notable difference? Is there any chance that the brain is cut off? The
error happened in the anterior commissure, that's a tract that does goes fairly
close to the ventral surface of the brain, and in the part of the log file
where the error happens I see some strange negative coordinates in the z
direction.

Anastasia.

Subject: TRACULA Question

Dear Anastasia,
I have run trac -all -prep in 2 different conditions:
a) prerequisite recon-all step was done using freesurfer 7.2.0
b) prerequisite recon-all step was done using freesurfer 6

The first time everything ran smoothly without an error, but when we used 
aparc+aseg resulted from running recon -all using version 6 of freesurfer, we 
got the following error for which I also attach the log file to this message: 
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

My question is that if I'm correct to assume that we can't run trac-all -prep 
using structural MRI segmentation done by previous versions of freesurfer? The 
reason I'm asking this is that I have a data from 100 subjects with Alzheimer's 
Disease. We have been collecting this data over the past 4 years and have done 
the recon -all step using freesurfer 6 for all of them as we acquired them. If 
trac-all can't use those segmentation, we have to do this step again for all 
these 100 subjects.

I appreciate your help and insight.
Ela
