Hi Marco, I think it might be that your PET volume is left-right reversed. I reran bbregister after left-right reversing the pet data and it looks much better.
mri_convert PBR_CLBP001_average8-28_BET_hdrOK.nii --left-right-reverse-pix lrrev.nii There's always the chance that the T1 was reversed, but I suspect the PET :). doug On 08/20/2012 11:36 PM, Marco Loggia, PhD wrote: > Hi Doug and Freesurfer team, > > I am trying to coregister some PET maps with their relative high > resolution MEMPRAGE files. > I was thinking that bbregister might be my best option but the results > are still not satisfactory, likely due to the intrinsic features of my > radioligand (the resulting maps are quite 'noisy' in terms of > anatomical details).
