Blood Vessel Failure
There are a few notable signs of blood vessel failure that can be quickly gleaned from QC:
1. T1 images:
- Blood vessels will appear as bright white spots.
2. Cortical thickness maps:
- May be thick (yellow/red) along the lateral sides of the brain, or other abnormal color variations.
3. Surface parcellation:
- There may be errors, especially laterally.
4. Surface-surface intersections:
- There will likely generally be a high number (and high visibility) of surf-surf intersections, in pink, concentrated laterally.
To mask the blood vessels, rerun CIVET and use the option -mask-blood-vessels
