High Resolution Data Recon
Notes from Falk Lüsebrink on the modifications to the default recon-all stream necessary to process high-resolution data (< 1mm), used in his paper.
Processing high resolution data with an isotropic resolution other than 1mm³ with Freesurfer (Version 5.1) For best results I advise to do an inhomogeneity correction by division before processing the data. The "corrected by division" image can be generated in SPM by first to aligning the MP-RAGE and the GE by co-registration. Afterwards use the image calculator to do the division using the formula: (i1./i2 .* (i2>20)) .* 100. The value of 20 depends on the image intensity and 100 is simply a scaling facotr (i1= MP-RAGE, i2= GE)
First: downsample high resolution data to 1mm and process completely
- SUBJ=ab11_05mm_downsampled
- _This will be the name of your subject_
- recon-all -motioncor -talairach -tal-check -i ~/data/ab11_05mm.nii -s $SUBJ
- _Adjust the path to your input file accordingly._
- _If the talairach registration fails an automated correction is being performed but for whatever reason the result is not being used, try:_
- _cp $SUBJECTS_DIR/$SUBJ/mri/transforms/talairach.auto.xfm $SUBJECTS_DIR/$SUBJ/mri/transforms/talairach.xfm_
- _recon-all -tal-check -s $SUBJ_
_If it still fails try looking at the http://www.freesurfer.net/fswiki/FsTutorial/Talairach][manual talairach registration in the wiki of Freesurfer._

- _N3 Algorithm for inhomogeneity correction with optimized parameters for 7T data. Works well with 1mm and 0.5mm MP-RAGE data and "corrected by division"-MP-RAGE data._

- _Visualize brainmask.mgz before continuing. If skullstripping does not look satisfactory, try:_

- _If small structures are still attached to the brain, try:_

- _If it looks satisfactory: cp $SUBJECTS_DIR/$SUBJ/mri/brainmask.auto.mgz $SUBJECTS_DIR/$SUBJ/mri/brainmask.mgz_
- recon-all -autorecon2 -autorecon3 -mprage -s $SUBJ
Second: process high resolution data and use downsampled data whenever needed
- SUBJECT=ab11_05mm
- _This will be the name of your subject_
- recon-all -cm -motioncor -talairach -tal-check -i ~/data/ab11_05mm.nii -s $SUBJECT
- _Adjust the path to your input file accordingly._
- _If the talairach registration fails an automated correction is being performed but for whatever reason the result is not being used, try:_
- _cp $SUBJECTS_DIR/$SUBJECT/mri/transforms/talairach.auto.xfm $SUBJECTS_DIR/$SUBJECT/mri/transforms/talairach.xfm_
- _recon-all -tal-check -s $SUBJECT_
_If it still fails try looking at the http://www.freesurfer.net/fswiki/FsTutorial/Talairach][manual talairach registration in the wiki of Freesurfer._
