Did it change anything at all? Make a copy of the talairach.xfm file, re-run, and see if it is different in any way.

Hi Doug,

I am using a GE 3T scanner with a slice thickness of 1.7 mm. I tried using the new script you provided (thanks for the help!) and it did not seem to make any difference with the couple of subjects that I tried. I have attached a screenshot. The right image in the screenshot is the original Talairaching and the left is after I ran the script you provided. Does this mean I will be forced into manually editing the Talairach for all of my subjects and re-running recon-all for all of them after I do that or is there another solution?

Peter

Hi Peter, what scanner are you using? You might be better off with using
a 3T atlas. Spec -schwartzya3t-atlas with recon-all and see if that
cleans it up. You can run just the talairaching with

recon-all -s subject -schwartzya3t-atlas -talairach
