Hi, I've managed to get the mask to a point where it's in the correct position if I load it through tkmedit (as a binary in analyze format). I then run mri_vol2surf, which seems to work (output below). However, If I try to load the mask (now saved as a .w file) though tksurfer as file > label > load, nothing happens (nothing happens if I try to load it as an overlay with the register.dat file either). If I try to load it as a label in tkmedit, I get the following:
Couldn't load the label. Tkmedit couldn't read the label you specified. This could be because the format wasn't valid or the file wasn't found. Am I missing something? I though .w was the correct format for labels of this type. Here's the mri_vol2surf output. Thanks again! mri_vol2surf --src 186_corconv_native_testmask_binary_y --src_type analyze --srcreg register.dat --hemi lh --out ./186_native_flip_y_mask_surf.w --out_type paint INFO: output format is paint srcvol = 186_corconv_native_testmask_binary_y srctype = analyze srcreg = register.dat srcregold = 0 srcwarp unspecified surf = white hemi = lh interp = nearest float2int = round INFO: float2int code = 0 INFO: analyzeRead(): found 1 files for /data/flanders/work/alex/freesurfer/subjects/186_corconv_native_testmask_binary_y ----------------------------------------------------------------- INFO: could not find /data/flanders/work/alex/freesurfer/subjects/186_corconv_native_testmask_binary_y.mat file for direction cosine info.

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. doug Fornito, Alexander wrote: >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).
