MeanCurv: integrated absolute value of the mean curvature
GausCurv: integrated absolute value of the Gaussian curvature
FoldInd and CurvInd are two indices that David Van Essen defined in a paper
of his that we also compute:
FoldInd: integral over surface (Kmax * (Kmax-Kmin))
you can check out the Drury and Van Essen paper for the complete
definitions.

Dear All,
We are interested in degree of cortical folding within our subject
populations. Would someone please help me to better understand what the
measures "MeanCurv", "GausCurv", "FoldInd" and "CurvInd" in the
?h.aparc.stats files mean? Also, are whole brain stats reported
elsewhere?
Thanks,
Sasha
