Dear Ali,
Making a SynthSeg version of the tool is on the to-do list but has not happened 
yet. For now, you need to run recon-all. The good news is that you get a ton of 
additional useful information on the brains!
Kind regards,
/Eugenio

Good evening,
I am trying to work with segmentBS.sh. I want to pass my .nii.gz files that are 
already pre-processed with HD-BET, but I don't want to use recon-all as the 
first step because it takes a lot of time. I also tried recon-all -autorecon2 
and 3, but it resulted in an error.

Is there any specific command that I will be able to pass my files directly to 
segmentBS.sh? Or is there any command for recon-all to only make subjects 
without processing or fast processing?

Thank you,
Ali

Dear Eugenio,

Thanks so much for your reply. I will certainly follow your instructions on 
"small volume" registration. That will certainly allow us to benefit from the 
more specialized volume showing neuromelanin within the LC area in conjunction 
with the whole brain T1 and brainstem component.

Very much appreciated

Best regards

Erik

Dear Erik,

I never put together a multi-spectral version of the brainstem segmentation 
because, given the coarse structures that we segment (midbrain, pons, medulla, 
scp), there’s pretty much nothing to be gained from additional contrasts.

In terms of registration: if your “small volume” is acquired during the same 
session as the 1mm T1 you’ve processed with FreeSurfer, they should be almost 
overlapping in RAS coordinates. You can then use mri_robust_register with the 
—noinit flag to register the volumes. I would strongly encourage you to use the 
small volume as target of the registration and the 1mm T1 as source; you can 
always invert the resulting rigid transform matrix to go in the other direction.

Cheers,

/Eugenio

Dear Experts,

We hope to acquire some multishell dwi and structural data to investigate 
tracts passing through the Locus Coeruleus (LC) and we want to apply the 
brainstem segmentation to our structural data to obtain subject specific LC 
masks.
Is it possible to feed multispectral data into the brainstem segmentation ?
Is it possible to acquire a high res volume capturing the LC in greater detail 
and co-register that to the whole brain T1 (T2 or FLAIR ) to further assist in 
the delineation of the LC roi and quantification of the LC volume?
If it's possible to use an additional small volume like this, do I need to 
pre-process it using recon-all and what is the optimal way to co-register the 
small volume to the whole brain T1 to assist in the mask generation?

Any guidance is very much appreciated.

Best regards and thanks,

Erik
