# workflows.smri.freesurfer.bem

## `create_bem_flow()`

Link to code

Uses MNE’s Watershed algorithm to create Boundary Element Meshes (BEM)
  for a subject’s brain, inner/outer skull, and skin. The surfaces are returned in the desired (by default, stereolithic .stl) format.

### Example

    >>> from nipype.workflows.smri.freesurfer import create_bem_flow
    >>> bemflow = create_bem_flow()
    >>> bemflow.inputs.inputspec.subject_id = 'subj1'
    >>> bemflow.inputs.inputspec.subjects_dir = '.'
    >>> bemflow.run()

Inputs:

    inputspec.subject_id : freesurfer subject id
    inputspec.subjects_dir : freesurfer subjects directory

Outputs:

    outputspec.meshes : output boundary element meshes in (by default) stereolithographic (.stl) format
