 Following the segmentation of the T1-weighted image, two further pre-processing steps are necessary to proceed with longitudinal analysis of the data. Firstly, an unbiased template must be created for each subject, taking into account all time-points/​sessions. Secondly, each time-point must be processed again using these templates in order to standardize subject data across time-points. Following the segmentation of the T1-weighted image, two further pre-processing steps are necessary to proceed with longitudinal analysis of the data.

-The **recon-all -base** command will take about as long as the original FreeSurfer segmentation,​ however each iteration of the **recon-all -long** command will take approximately half the time. Using helper functions, the **paralell_recon.m** script ​also will generate and execute these commands.+The **recon-all -base** command will take about as long as the original FreeSurfer segmentation,​ however each iteration of the **recon-all -long** command will take approximately half the time.
