External Email - Use Caution Hi Andrew,
Thank you greatly for your quick response. In the process of implementing your solution, I came across another issue and hope that you could help me solve it. I went ahead and ran the SynthStrip script using singularity. This gave me newly stripped T1 and brainmask files. However, when I tried to run recon-all again, using these files, it exited with errors saying white matter peak found at 0 -I tried recon-all by replacing the existing T1 and brainmask files from the mri folder of sub-02 and running recon-all using the -make flag. Should I have tried to recon from the beginning using only the T1 file? Below you can find the error I got in the normalization step: #@# Intensity Normalization2 Fri Mar 18 20:34:47 CET 2022 /home/inekepillet/Downloads/freesurfer/sub-02/mri mri_normalize -mprage -aseg aseg.presurf.mgz -mask brainmask.mgz norm.mgz brain.mgz assuming input volume is MGH (Van der Kouwe) MP-RAGE using segmentation for initial intensity normalization using MR volume brainmask.mgz to mask input volume... reading from norm.mgz...
