External Email - Use Caution Dear Falk,
thanks for the hint! My understanding was that the "robust" MP2 actually reintroduces some of the field inhomogeneity artefacts that MP2RAGE is designed to compensate (OBrien Plos One 2014) - that's why I am trying to go with skullstripping... That way, the majority of > 100 volumes here is processed just fine, too. Don't know what is causing the problem in some.

Maybe this helps.

I am of course happy to provide full logs and some example data - please let me know. The exact same problem (also MP2RAGE data) has been described twice before, but I couldn't find a solution: https://secure-web.cisco.com/1r3_UfItk0odyQTEjL22mLAxycj89_vXfN--AkpFwUzred-OQT3ckmk1p9JLbc29ymXguFMzz6rV70r7A9LeDMz_kYEm1cy8e9ibgxgnRwgtJLUfjnfuY7OkKyKDITcG13L9huWbQSuMS4eo6ea1DFHfrbfd9b_1msdUkWpfAFMV_UBe8nf3eVw5dmY-zapW2LYz0tifCErjKgm631dwA8U8RH3BRPmSdKNv6NT8vQmby7TV0Kd5S490MWVKNPO_Ve7SGS1clbqmTblxJRiNt2m0AUFzGrZcY8EQLNhMWPz1sfmDFgZFw999W7vwhhAa5YQXJ8pZbUYMGXMaJJ3dyig/https%3A%2F%2Fwww.mail-archive.com%2Ffreesurfer%40nmr.mgh.harvard.edu%2Fmsg66557.html https://secure-web.cisco.com/1_dIFX4W-YMl78kLd-J9E7AGEkpzUy7zCtCTsFt-L6nLdAv_ixABY3RDMvbdmBUDMJNZ-4u1RxJGsBMdpoUXKZMDoxX7orbApLXZgx30JCvhLAp31DqNIdIJHJF-OsxyycEnct0FCwOQJric_qQLQ_noGjYTi2qa7coQda6l04uWLmjnF5LIOjIJ7s2L95fZdSdTNaiLBUo1XQjQWPwr7dXmXIDk_ly61SRk8r9EyMv-7Bv5URoFumrNXPLHoWhcyDOgq2i2x7f3gdfB3pTN36GbygyujShpYQdRwE24fPj5sUN9VqAfIvJ1y5JqSahF9u5u07COsUHW5POQQHTK06Q/https%3A%2F%2Fwww.mail-archive.com%2Ffreesurfer%40nmr.mgh.harvard.edu%2Fmsg70463.html Thanks you in advance and best wishes Cornelius _______________________________________________ Freesurfer mailing list Freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu https://secure-web.cisco.com/1QzXOCjHVxSi4f-Jj3qRC4U7YQJDQKthT8fzLIWQQ_xZYELVQtVRBnYsQV0SQumv_62RJ3BH-a-6j3qhPH3LA4Rty0RvniWIr5FY0JmoEM1VsVtvg5u_PO00-eUoUMThAz872SmCKle5TpHOI2e4sG9K1N_ge8mGvvmDq9hSnPriZ2y2hKGxRqo6Z_XQVD7eUe3-EqvRBADajswurevSK_JVAgNCPn3_eo5i4OHornXMTOyzRcfwW1JhRkKXzyCycoL2youPJ5t86J6MMLjPcEoVoyLaMwm3iiRf7boE3jO-iUYDOgd1zu2vwf6tUD0F1zvYPe8KaOlPM7gkf37bOeA/https%3A%2F%2Fmail.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu%2Fmailman%2Flistinfo%2Ffreesurfer _______________________________________________ Freesurfer mailing list Freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu https://mail.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/mailman/listinfo/freesurfer
