Hi,
We have found that the following prescription works quite well:
- run robustfov to save out an ROI (-r option) without any neck- run bet with the -R option
Depending on your subjects and alignment the first stage may be too tight in the z-direction, in which case you should alter the size of brain in z (the -b option) but in general it works well.
Give it a try and let us know how you get on.
All the best,Mark

Subject: [FSL] Problematic Brain Extraction
Dear experts,
I have been working on a particular brain extraction for quite some time and can't seem to get a good result. The most recent parameters I tried are as follows:
bet 245016_Structural 245016_Structural_brain -f 0.45 -c 78 130 110 -B
No matter what I try, there seems to be a fair amount of frontal lobe missing and a fair amount of non-brain at the top. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,Laura
