p.s. we probably do something similar to the "loose-fitting mask" as we
only use non-brain locations that are reasonably close to brain (within 2
cm or so)

It certainly is my read of the Buckner 2004 paper that they used skull-
stripped brains in their registration.

"Registration was driven by the brain as a loose-fitting mask was
applied to exclude skull and extracranial features."

Hi Mike,
the alignment whole head is used to determine the atlas scaling factor,
which itself was computed using some manually generated ICV values. Did
Randy use skull-stripped brains? I didn't remember that and would have
thought that defeated the purpose since you'll strip the sulcal CSF as
Now I've become confused.
ICV is based on the determinant of talaiarach_with_skull.lta, for which
the skull is not stripped. So, I've always assumed that basically
everything -- wm, gm, csf, cerebellum, dura, AND skull tissue -- all
"contribute" to the definition of the transform (using whatever
yes, that's correct.
