The TkR vox2ras will never have direction cosine info. The -conform-dc will keep the original DC in the "conformed" volume (eg, orig.mgz vs rawavg.mgz)

I tried `--conform-dc` and the flag was not recognized. `-conform-dc` didn't give me error. However, vox2ras-tkr still didn't include the cosine information.

This is the Torig:

mri_info --vox2ras-tkr T1.mgz

-1.00000    0.00000    0.00000  128.00000

0.00000    0.00000    1.00000 -128.00000

0.00000   -1.00000    0.00000  128.00000

0.00000    0.00000    0.00000    1.00000


While Norig is

mri_info --vox2ras T1.mgz

-0.99989    0.00604    0.01331  124.66034

0.01408    0.15990    0.98703 -164.17455

-0.00383   -0.98711    0.15997  108.14072

0.00000    0.00000    0.00000    1.00000


I wonder what steps I could take to make sure the Torig = Norig. Here Norig is acpc realigned.

Best,

    If you want to keep the original orientation, you can specify
    --conform-dc. Would that fix your problem?

    Dear FreeSurer Wizards,

    I'm trying to run the recon-all command on one of my template
    brains such that the resulting Norig and Torig are identical. I
    understand that fs always conforms the MRI to 256^3 before
    segmentation. I wonder if there is any way that I can resample
    the original MRI to achieve the same Norig and Torig?

    More specifically, currently the Torig (vox to tkrRAS) is
         [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4]
    [1,]   -1    0    0  128
    [2,]    0    0    1 -128
    [3,]    0   -1    0  128
    [4,]    0    0    0    1

    If I resample the input image such that Norig (vox to scanRAS)
    equals this matrix, can I expect that "conform" does not change
    the orientation?

    Alternatively, is there any method I can use to "predict" or
    reproduce the Torig from the original MRI outside of FreeSurfer?

    Thanks,
    - Dipterix
