Example:
Use gunzip to decompress these downloads, ie.:
Line 12: Line 22:
mri_deface orig.mgz talairach_mixed_with_skull.gca face.gca orig_defaced.mgz mv mri_deface_linux mri_deface
chmod a+x mri_deface
gunzip talairach_mixed_with_skull.gca.gz
gunzip
face.gca.gz
Line 14: Line 27:

The command usage is:

{{{
./mri_deface <input> talairach_mixed_with_skull.gca face.gca <output>
}}}

So as an example, to deface your T1-weighted input file, which can be a dicom or nifti, run:

{{{
./mri_deface T1.nii.gz talairach_mixed_with_skull.gca face.gca T1_defaced.nii.gz
}}}

You will need a volume viewer to view the resulting defaced file. The freesurfer package includes the 'freeview' viewer, but there are many others capable of reading dicom and nifti volumes. [[http://www.mccauslandcenter.sc.edu/mricro/mricron/|MRIcron]] is a good option (use MRIcron, not MRIcro, because you will want nifti support).

Sample input before and after defacing:
