Hello Rahul, Thank you for your reply. I tried to combine the different regions to create one label for each lobe but could not figure it out. Can you suggest how I can combine different regions using tksurfer? Is there a wiki page where the steps are explained?

Hi Dhruman, If you are interested in lobe-wise comparisons, you can indeed add up the individual regions of a specific lobe, create one massive label for that lobe, and get statistics on those. For example, if you were interested in the temporal lobe, you could combine: lateral occipital cuneus lingual pericalcarine and generate an *h.occiptal.label (you can use tksurfer to combine the regions). You could do the same for the other labels and thus create a 'lobe based' parcellation. Once you are done, you can use mris_anatomical_stats to generate stats on the new labels you have generated. best, Rahul On Thu, 27 Jul 2006, Goradia, Dhruman D wrote: > Hi all, > > I am interested in lobe wise surface measurement.
