Hi Rick,
Thanks for the response! I tried 3dSkullStrip instead but the results look the same. In this case though, I do get this in the terminal output:
#++ removing skull or area outside brain
#Script is running (command trimmed):
3dSkullStrip -orig_vol -input ./__tt_vr_base_min_outlier_unif_ts_rs+orig -prefix ./vr_base_min_outlier_unif_ts_rs_ns
oo Warning 3dSkullStrip (SUMA_3dSkullStrip.c:1649):
Input dataset has a very low value range.
If stripping fails, repeat with option -fac 1000
At this suggestion, I added -skullstrip_opts -fac 1000 to my afni_proc.py command so the proc script looks like this:
align_epi_anat.py -anat2epi -anat anatSS.AB1056+orig \
-suffix _al_junk \
-epi vr_base_min_outlier_unif+orig -epi_base 0 \
-epi_strip 3dSkullStrip \
-anat_has_skull no \
-cost lpc+ZZ -check_flip -skullstrip_opts -fac 1000 \
-volreg off -tshift off
However, I am still getting the same result and terminal output as before, so I'm unsure if 3dSkullstrip is applying the -fac 1000 option. Do you happen to have any other suggestions?
Sincerely,
Ian
