Hi Kayle you would run recon-all on the RMS, then run the dura stuff posthoc.

We take the scan.info file and parse it like this: "-run [MEMPRAGE_4e_p2_1mm_iso run number] 3danat mgz 001.mgz" so the multi echo scan gets put into one mgz file, and the RMS gets put into a separate mgz file. > > Thanks, > -Kayle > > On May 9, 2013, at 12:00 PM, freesurfer-requ...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu wrote: >> Message: 35 >> Date: Thu, 9 May 2013 10:44:23 -0400 (EDT) >> From: Bruce Fischl <fis...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu> >> Subject: Re: [Freesurfer] Working with MEMPRAGE >> To: Jonathan Holt <whats...@umich.edu> >> Cc: freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu >> Message-ID: >> <alpine.lrh.2.02.1305091043500.13...@gate.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu> >> Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; format=flowed; charset=US-ASCII >> >> it needs to be: >> >> mris_make_surfaces -dura memprage_echo%d.mgz 4 subjid lh >> >> note the "4" which tells it how many echoes to read >> >> On Thu, 9 May 2013, Jonathan Holt wrote: >> >>> I input: >>> >>> mris_make_surfaces -dura memprage_echo%d.mgz subjid lh >>> >>> it returns: >>> >>> detecting dura using 0 echos from memprage_echo%d.mgz >>> >>> >>> Should I execute the command in the same directory as the mgz's?
