Hi Lisa globus pallidus is included in the aseg, have you looked at it? The others you could lab on the fsaverage volume and warp to individual subjects if you want, but that won't be as accurate as including them in our atlas (but a lot easier!). We are working on segmenting things like

A. You should overlay the tracts on the subject's FA (see example command line on wiki) B. Check the mailing list archives about reinitializing tracts. That should improve the results here. You don't need to reinitialize the tracts that are already correct (although none of yours look

Hm, this looks uniformly bad. Have you checked that the gradient directions are correct? You can check that by looking at the eigenvectors from the tensor fit that's done as part of the preprocessing. Although tracula doesn't use tensors for tractography, it's a quick way to check that your

Indeed, they look like they're oriented A-P in the corpus callosum and L-R in the cinglulum, when it should be the opposite obviously. This'd mean you'd have to swap things in the gradient table. It's hard to tell for sure from the screenshot though. If you upload the dtifit_FA and dtifit_V1
