Abstract
Although default BET performs reasonably well on most 3DT1 images of MS patients, the performance can be improved substantially. The removal of the neck slices, either externally or within BET, has a marked positive effect on the brain extraction quality. BET option “B” with f = 0.1 after removal of the neck slices seems to work best for all acquisition protocols.
