What does recon all do FreeSurfer?
The command recon-all converts a three-dimensional anatomical volume (shown on the left, represented by a typical sagittal slice taken through a volume) into a two-dimensional surface (right).
How long does FreeSurfer recon all take?
20-24 hours
How long does it take for recon-all to finish processing one subject? 20-24 hours.
What does recon all do?
recon-all : Performs all, or any part of, the FreeSurfer cortical reconstruction process.
What can FreeSurfer do?
FreeSurfer is a set of software tools for the study of cortical and subcortical anatomy. In the cortical surface stream, the tools construct models of the boundary between white matter and cortical gray matter as well as the pial surface. The surfaces can be inflated and/or flattened for improved visualization.

What is pial surface?
Pial surface [r]: A surface representing the boundary between grey matter and cerebrospinal fluid, as reconstructed from neuroimaging data; roughly corresponds to the position of the pia mater.
Who created FreeSurfer?
FreeSurfer is a brain imaging software package originally developed by Bruce Fischl, Anders Dale, Martin Sereno, and Doug Greve. Development and maintenance of FreeSurfer is now the primary responsibility of the Laboratory for Computational Neuroimaging at the Athinoula A. Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging.
Do I need to run FreeSurfer’s Recon-all on my subject?
Not mandatory but highly recommended is to run FreeSurfer’s recon-all process on the anatomical scans of your subject. recon-all is FreeSurfer’s cortical reconstruction process that automatically creates a parcellation of cortical and a segmentation of subcortical regions.
How easy is FreeSurfer to use?
Fortunately, the processing itself is very simple to do – FreeSurfer has a single command that, when executed, does virtually all of the most tedious parts of preprocessing a single subject. This command, recon-all, is easy to use and requires only a few arguments in order to run.
What are individual stats files in FreeSurfer?
Individual Stats files During the FreeSurfer processing stream, via the recon-all script, some statistical output files are generated. They are kept in each subjects’ stats/ subdirectory and are generated for the subcortical segmentation (aseg) and the cortical parcellation (aparc).
What is the difference between Recon-all and expert preferences Flags?
While the expert preferences flags supported by recon-all cover most of the instances where special flags need to be passed to a FreeSurfer binary, to allow passing an arbitrary flag to a binary, recon-all supports the reading of a user-created file containing special options to include in the command string (in addition to, not in place of).
