External Email - Use Caution Freesurfer seem to be able to do it very well when I add the FLAIR and T2 scans. These have better axial resolution (up to 570x570) but there are only 30 slices yet the results dramatically improve,
1) Can I, with freesurfer, add a second, different, T2 scan (again high resolution in 2D but only 30 slices) 2) Can I, with freesurfer, add another T1 scan (also high resolution in 2D but only 30 slices) Michael On Fri, Mar 31, 2023 at 12:48 PM Glasser, Matt <glass...@wustl.edu> wrote: > External Email - Use Caution > > I think there are some deep learning approaches out there that try to > infer a high-resolution volume from low resolution volumes in multiple > planes.
