Thanks Bruce. Another question, since " -no segmentation " flag skips the white matter segmentation step of recon-all. Can I also use the same logic as the "-noskullstrip" flag to replace the wm.seg.mgz file? That's, run " recon-all -autorecon1 -autorecon2 -nosegmentation -s subjid ". Then copy/convert my already segmented brain and name it wm.seg.mgz. After that, treat it as if I had freesurfer's wm.seg.mgz and finally, run " recon-all -autorecon3 -s " to complete the process. What do you think? Best, Paul

I think if you copy/convert your already-stripped and name it brainmask.mgz we should treat that as if you had edited our skull stripping and you should be able to run from their forward (autorecon2 and autorecon3 I believe) cheers Bruce On Fri, 4 Nov 2016, miracoo...@gmail.com wrote: > Please can someone answer this.
