Hi Jenni, Sorry for the confusion. We are more familiar with our own registration/segmentation system, where we edit before segmentation not after. Anyway, thank you for the advice. We will edit the aseg.mgz file instead. Thanks again, Jared Jenni Pacheco wrote: Hi Jared, It's stil

Hi Jared, It's still not completely clear to me what you are trying to do. By segmentation values do you just mean the volumes that will come out of the aseg.mgz? If thats what you mean you should make these edits to the aseg.mgz itself. I'm not certain what will happen if you make these e

Jenni, Another question for you. What is the consequence of running autorecon2 after editing on the brainmask.mgz file itself. You mentioned something about it not working if we want to obtain surfaces--what did you mean exactly? CSF surfaces? Ideally, we are editing the brainmask.mgz fil

Jenni, Thanks; that was easier than I thought. I also appreciate the warning about editing the brainmask.mgz. We will be sure to follow your suggestion and save it as another file before editing it. Thanks again, Jared Jenni Pacheco wrote: Hi Jared, Mechanically, yes - you would use t

Hi Jared, Mechanically, yes - you would use the edit voxels tool and then use the right button to remove the voxels you do not want. I'm not sure I understand exactly what you are trying to do - and if you eventually want to use Freesurfer to obtain surfaces etc, this will not work. I'd sug

Hi Jenni, I am trying to edit the greyscale images of the brainmask.mgz. We are trying to generate an ICC map with only grey/white matter and we need to exclude a few structures that are not removed in the skull-stripping step (i.e. some of the cranial nerves, pituitary, etc.). I assume that

Hi Jared, What happens when you try and edit? What type of editing are you trying to do? Do you have the right tools selected? I'm going to need a little bit more information on what you are doing and what is going wrong. Thanks, Jenni On Mon, 11 Jun 2007, Jared Conley wrote: FreeSurfe

FreeSurfer community, I am attempting to manually edit brainmask.mgz in TkMedit and cannot figured out how to do so based on the info in the Wiki. I load the file in X11 with the command and see the images just fine, but I cannot seem to manually edit them like I can in the segmentation fil
