Hi Catherine

this is an artifact of visualizing a slice through a 3D surface. There 
are no true bubbles allowed - it is definitely all one surface. When you 
see something that looks like a bubble, view it in another plane. I also 
wouldn't worry about small oddities in the inflated surface - it's mostly 
for visualization.

cheers
Bruce

[Freesurfer] pial edit question

2012-07-27 Thread Cat Chong
Dear Experts,

I am occasionally noticing some 'pinching' on the inflated brain surfaces 
around the temporal lobe pole. When I check the brainmask.mgz files, the raised 
areas are due to a 'bubble' of pial surface forming on top of pial surface. 
Upon checking white matter and grey matter boundaries, the pial surface should 
really not be separated as a "bubble", but should in fact be all one surface. 
What would you suggest would be the best way to fix this? The white matter 
seems to be fine.
Best Regards,
Catherine
