BBRegister
----------

`Link to code <file:///build/buildd/nipype-0.9.2/nipype/interfaces/freesurfer/preprocess.py#L843>`__

Wraps command **bbregister**

Use FreeSurfer bbregister to register a volume to the Freesurfer anatomical.

This program performs within-subject, cross-modal registration using a
boundary-based cost function. The registration is constrained to be 6
DOF (rigid). It is required that you have an anatomical scan of the
subject that has already been recon-all-ed using freesurfer.

Examples
~~~~~~~~

>>> from nipype.interfaces.freesurfer import BBRegister
>>> bbreg = BBRegister(subject_id='me', source_file='structural.nii', init='header', contrast_type='t2')

Smooth
------

`Link to code <file:///build/buildd/nipype-0.9.2/nipype/interfaces/freesurfer/preprocess.py#L1051>`__

Wraps command **mris_volsmooth**

Use FreeSurfer mris_volsmooth to smooth a volume

This function smoothes cortical regions on a surface and non-cortical
regions in volume.

.. note::
   Cortical voxels are mapped to the surface (3D->2D) and then the
   smoothed values from the surface are put back into the volume to fill
   the cortical ribbon. If data is smoothed with this algorithm, one has to
   be careful about how further processing is interpreted.

Examples
~~~~~~~~

>>> from nipype.interfaces.freesurfer import Smooth
>>> smoothvol = Smooth(in_file='functional.nii', smoothed_file = 'foo_out.nii', reg_file='register.dat', surface_fwhm=10, vol_fwhm=6)
