Hi Susie - Everything under dlabel/diff is mapped to DWI space (either with flirt or with bbregister, whichever you use). The one in my screenshot was dlabel/diff/aparc+aseg.flt.nii.gz.

Hi Anastasia, I see what you mean. I had previously used the dtifit_FA.nii.gz image and overlaid that with the aparc+aseg+2mm.nii.gz image in /dlabel/diff, using freeview. I didn't end up with the same images as you, however. Can you tell me which images you used to obtain this overlay? I am going to run bbregister tonight, and I'll let you know how it goes -- I'm hopeful! Thank you again!

The registration has failed. The frontal lobe has spilled out of the brain, the white matter has spilled into the ventricles. I strongly recommend using bbregister for the intra-subject registration, which is the default in the latest version of trac-all. Hope this helps, a.y On Tue, 26 Mar 2013, Susan Kuo wrote: Hi Anastasia, I did as you recommended and checked the diffusion-to-anatomical registration, and the overlay of aparc+aseg_mask on FA, and these views seem to be good. Upon closer inspection, what I find is that there are incipient 'bits' of all the tracts, but they seem to not have 'grown', though they are in the proper space (comparing them to good brains that yielded the full complement of tracts). Is there a configuration in your TRACULA that controls the growing of the tracts specifically? Perhaps I should look into that. Thank you, btw, for your very prompt reply yesterday- it was much appreciated!

Have you checked the aparc+aseg and the diffusion-to-anatomical registration for the subjects that are failing? I'd check the aparc+aseg_mask (in the dlabel/diff directory) over the FA map to see if there are any holes or misregistration. a.y On Mon, 25 Mar 2013, Susan Kuo wrote: Hi FreeSurfers and Anastasia, TRACULA is working great for me, generating tracts for a sample of 20 subject brains I'm working with. However, for 3 of the brains, I'm receiving incomplete and poorly formed tracts. I've re-run trac-all at least 2x on each subject in case there was a mistake in my original configuration. However, I am reproducing the same results. Does anybody have an idea why I would see these "spotty" tracts?
