External Email - Use Caution I am writing on behalf of our research team regarding our upcoming publication of our study, in which we would like to include results figures that were output from Freesurfer software (specifically the fsaverage template in Freesurfer). As we prepare our manuscript for publication, we have encountered a licensing issue. Specifically, the journal has indicated that we need to seek permission for figures where we use Freesurfer brain templates.
Have you encountered similar challenges when publishing figures that feature images from your software? If so, could you kindly share the approach or any guidelines you followed to comply with the licensing terms while still effectively presenting our findings? Any advice or suggestions you could provide would be greatly appreciated, as it would help us determine the best path forward and ensure that we adhere to the necessary legal and ethical standards. Please note, we have cited the inaugural paper: Fischl, B. (2012). FreeSurfer. NeuroImage, 62(2), 774–781. Thank you very much for your time and assistance. I look forward to your guidance. Tanya
