This page lists the 'persistent' edits that can be made to subject data supported by the recon-all stream (both the default 'cross-sectional' stream, and the longitudinal stream). An 'edit' in this context is a manual intervention by a user necessary when the automated stream (recon-all) does not produce output that is correct or suitable as determined by the user, or if the automated stream fails outright. Manual interventions occur via the volume editing tool tkmedit, tkregister2, or by recon-all command-line options. 'Persistent' in this context means that an edit, once made, is treated as a permanent change: it is saved to a file in some manner (either a voxel change in a volume, or a text file listing points or commands), and it is automatically re-used by recon-all if recon-all is run again.

A 'persistent' edit is in contrast to the many possible recon-all options available to alter the operation of an executable but are not saved to disk (and not re-used by recon-all, thus necessitating the user to specify the options again on any future run of recon-all if that operation is desired).

This page lists the 'persistent' edits that can be made to subject data supported by the recon-all stream (both the default 'cross-sectional' stream, and the longitudinal stream). An 'edit' in this context is a manual intervention by a user necessary when the automated stream (recon-all) does not produce output that is correct or suitable as determined by the user, or if the automated stream fails outright. Manual interventions occur via the volume editing tool tkmedit, tkregister2, or by recon-all command-line options. 'Persistent' in this context means that an edit, once made, is treated as a permanent change: it is saved to a file in some manner (either a voxel change in a volume, or a text file listing points or commands), and it is automatically re-used by recon-all if recon-all is run again.

Persistent edits are removed via '-clean' options to recon-all. A 'persistent' edit is in contrast to the many possible recon-all options available to alter the operation of an executable but are not saved to disk (and not re-used by recon-all, thus necessitating the user to specify the options again on any future run of recon-all if that operation is desired). Specifying gm/wm intensity priors is an example of a 'non-persistent' edit (one which is not saved to disk).

All of the persistent edits made to a subject can be revealed by using the -show-edits option of recon-all (available in v5.X):

recon-all -s subjid -show-edits

Each of the persistent edits is now described. Where/when/how it is used is referenced, along with how recon-all handles it internally, and how it can be removed.

Note: all edits can be removed with the option -clean


control points

user intervention

Control points are added to indicate a white matter voxel. See FsTutorial/ControlPoints.

recon-all handling

The executables 'mri_normalize' and 'mri_ca_normalize' use controls points in the -normalization, -canorm and -normalization2 stages.
