Sorry, I gave you a slightly wrong tkmedit command-line, it should have been -overlay-reg ...

As for tkmedit, the mask is probably too dark. Click in the window and hit 'i'. This will turn on intensity normalization, which will probably fix the problem. You may want to load in the volume that you traced the mask on instead of the mask itself.

Hi Doug,
I tried the tkmedit command and it loaded the volume with the mask, although I got a message saying:
Error: Parsing command line options 
Option -reg not recognized 
This option was not recognized and ignored.

Not sure why this occurred, as I loaded it from scratch through the GUI (File > Load Overlay Data, with the mask as the volume and register.dat as the registration file) and it produced the same with no error. 
In any case, I can see from tkmedit that the mask is not where it should be (It's in the neck, where it should be in the cingulate, above the corpus callosum).
However, I tried running tkregister as you suggested to me, and although the GUI pops up, I'm unable to see the movable volume (ie., the mask). This has happened to me before when i tried something else in tkregister, and am not sure if I'm doing anything wrong. The output is below.
Thanks for your help,
Alex.

The first thing that you should do is load your mask as an overlay in
tkmedit to make sure that it is actually falling where you think it
is:

tkmedit yoursubject orig -overlay ./mask.img -reg ./register.dat \
   -fthresh 0.5

The fthresh is set assuming your mask is 0 or 1. You can even load
the surface to see if it actually inersects.

If this fails, then you need a new registration file. You can
create this with:

tkregiser2 --s yoursubject --mov mask.img --reg reg.dat --regheader

tkregiser2 allows you to interactively change the registration. Note
that you only use --regheader the first time you run it (ie, before
you have a reg.dat).

Sorry, I forgot to mention, I have the mask in analyze format (I traced it in another program). I ran mri_vol2surf using the register.dat file format that Doug provided, and got the output below. Although it creates a .w file, nothing happens when I load it in tksurfer, I'm gessing because the vertex values are zero (?). Have I done something wrong?

Hi Alex,

I think you can just load the label into tksurfer (file->label->load) and
it will sample it onto the surface, assuming that it was drawn on one of
the volumes that the surface was created from (or a coregistered one).
The 1st time you do this it may take a bit, but if you save it again it
will save the vertex #s.

cheers,
Bruce

Hi,
I'm trying apply ROI masks that I've manually traced in volume space to the same image's surface using mri_vol2surf. mri_vol2surf seems to requires a register.dat file, and I'm unsure what needs to be registered, since the volume that I traced the masks on is exactly the same as the one that I began with to create the surface (so presumably they are in the same space?) . Any hints would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Alex
