Hi Doug, I tried what you suggested but don't think sure I've got it right. I'm trying to extract thickness for gyri and sulci separately in labels that I have created and saved as an annotation. I began by using mri_surf2surf to convert the thickness and sulc files to mgh - no errors, although trying to load either in tkmedit just brings up a straight, coloured line running ear to ear (not sure if this is what to expect) . I then comverted the annot file to mgh using mri_label2vol - seemed ok (although one of the labels in the annot did not seem to appear in the resulting volume). I then ran mri_segstats and got the following:
mri_segstats --seg annot_vol.mgh --sum ./annot_stats.txt --in 1000001_thickness_conv.mgh --ctab /usr/local/freesurfer-dev20050905/alex_ACC_colour_LUT.txt --mask 1000001_sulc_conv.mgh --masksign pos Loading annot_vol.mgh Loading 1000001_thickness_conv.mgh Loading 1000001_sulc_conv.mgh NOT INVERTING There were 28632 voxels in the mask Segmentation fault Alex Fornito M.Psych/PhD (clin. neuro.) candidate Melbourne Neuropsychiatry Centre and Department of Psychology The University of Melbourne [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Fri 23/12/2005 10:33 AM To: Fornito, Alexander Cc: Bruce Fischl; freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu Subject: RE: [Freesurfer] Sulcal depth you might be able to use mri_segstats. Give it the thickness file as --in, and use the sulc as the mask and use a threshold of 0 (or close to 0). Note, you might have to convert the thickness and sulc from curv format to mgh (use mri_surf2surf). doug > What it require a lot of work?
