Hi Bruce, I found on http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/FsTutorial/Talairach
Fixing Bad Output From the Talairach Registration FreeSurfer computes a linear Talairach transform contained in a 3x4 matrix in a file called talairach.xfm and is located in the <subject name>/mri/transforms directory. Under some circumstances, the alignment can *fail the automatic failure detection scheme* (-tal-check flag, which can be disabled via -notal-check). Indeed, when I run recon-all with -notal-check, I donot see: *#@# Talairach Failure Detection Wed Apr 6 12:36:53 EDT 2011 in recon-all-staus.log file any more. Does this mean I have to do the manual talairach registration every time I run my recon-all, as it is a time consuming process? Is there any thing (from an acquisition perspective or otherwise) to eliminate this problem? Thanks in advance.
