Hi Ajay

Florent Segonne developed some volumetric topology correction algorithms as well as surface-based ones when he was here. Try mri_topologycorrection and see how it works for you (although be warned that we haven't tried it in ages)

Hi Freesurfer experts,   I wanted to create a Freesurfer surface on some of
the aseg ROIs.  I was able to run mri_tesselate, mris_smooth, mris_inflate
and mris_sphere some of the subcortical volumes for creating a surface.  

The mri_sphere had a big chunk that was deleted and so I wanted to run
mris_fix_topology to fix this issue.  In trying to run this command it
appears that mris_fix_topology tries to correct based off of a brain sphere
(which this ROI is clearly not) and therefore it fails.  I plan to then run
subsequent steps such as mris_euler number and mris_remove_intersections  

1) Is there any way to fix the topology of this ROI using freesurfer tools
or a way to work around this issue?  Do you feel the sphere is needed for a
small subcortical surface (ie globus pallidus) or is this really more for
complex structures such as cortical surfaces?   

2) Is there a recommended set of steps to accomplish creating a surface from
the ROI that is different from what I stated?


Thanks,
Ajay
