[Neuroimaging] Neuroimaging Digest, Vol 30, Issue 8

Hi Juan,

For the computational anatomy, you could certainly look at the key stages
of FreeSurfer's recon-all pipeline. Your going to want to know its output
well for MNE anyway but its more commonly used as a computational
neuroanatomy tool. Hope that helps.

Cheers,

-Morgan
