Detection of fs-subjects-dir in 20.0.2

#1

I thought I should split questions up as I believe these are unrelated. I have pre-run Freesurfer and pointed fMRIprep to the directory, but the report still says “FreeSurfer reconstruction: Run by fMRIPrep”. However, in the log (attached), the section about reconall just says:

00310-19:11:22,508 nipype.workflow INFO:

I’m trying to figure out whether my pre-run Freesurfer was actually used and the report is wrong, or if it’s not finding the freesurfer_t1 directory. The timestamp on scripts/recon-all.done for this subject is earlier, making me think that the directory is being found but not documented.

My fmriprep command:

 /usr/local/miniconda/bin/fmriprep /mnt/ /mnt/derivatives/ participant --participant-label CBPD0162 --fs-license-file /home/utooley/license.txt --fs-subjects-dir /mnt/derivatives/freesurfer_t2 --bids-filter-file /mnt/derivatives/fmriprep/ses-02.json --output-spaces MNI152NLin6Asym T1w MNIPediatricAsym:res-1:cohort-2 --ignore slicetiming sbref -w /tmp/9999954.1.himem.q

fMRIPrep: how to reuse longitudinal AND pre-run FreeSurfer
#2

Probably @effigies will have a clearer structure in his mind to reply your question. If he confirms your hypothesis, then I guess we should add some log trace to make more clear when the --fs-subjects-dir kicks in.

#3

My guess is that when we say “Run by fMRIPrep” we’re checking output/freesurfer, and that didn’t change when we added the --fs-subjects-dir option.

#4

That makes sense, and is in line with what I’m seeing–I can confirm that when I check the working directories and open an issue if so.
