[caret-users] constantly getting either Error in hind brain segmentation or segmentation fault

Hi,

I tried setting the AC as origin. It resulted in the volume getting 
segmented. But the output of the segmentation was really bad. I am 
uploading two scans (under the zip file Abe_scans.zip. It contains 
Abe_axial.[hdr, img] and Abe_saggital.[hdr,img]) on to the site. I tried 
segmenting right and left hemispheres separately on both the volumes and 
I am missing lot of sulci. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

regards,
krishna
