Hi Doug,

For mri_mask's threshold,

"mri_mask -T 1 T1.mgz brain.mgz brain.mgz" works, but
"mri_mask -T 0 T1.mgz brain.mgz brain.mgz" does not work, and
"mri_mask T1.mgz brain.mgz brain.mgz" does not work either.

So one should specify the threshold to be at least 1. The default used by -autorecon2 (or normalization2) is not sufficient.

it sounds like there's something that went wrong with the skullstripping
if you have to use a threshold of 20. Have you looked at brain.mgz
immediately after skullstripping? The background voxels should be 0.

Hi Bruce,

The exact input is:

mri_mask T1.mgz brain.mgz brain.mgz

This command was invoked by "recon-all -subjid subject
-normalization2", which is part of "recon-all -subjid subject
-autorecon2". Because of the bug, after this command, the manual
edited brain.mgz went back to pre-manual editing state.

It appears that by adding a threshold (mri_mask -T 20 T1.mgz brain.mgz
brain.mgz) the mask is properly executed. However, this does mean that
one cannot run autorecon2 or normalization2, which calls for mri_mask
without specifying a threshold. Perhaps someone should fix this
command (as well as autorecon2 and normalization2)??
