How did you get the 15 mm^2 regions? And how did you know that they are 15mm^2? There are some complications with using the raw vertex areas on fsaverage. The total surface area of the average will be wrong (inevitable with the way that fsaverage is computed). However, there is a correction, and our tools take this into account.

Hello all

I have made deep changes in 9 regions of a left
hemisfere of a subject surface after maped it  onto
the fsaverage subject sphere. The changes were made to
have areas close to 15 mm^2. I computed the areas by
add the areas of the  faces inside the regions
(computed using the vertexes spherical coordinates).
The freesurfer sphere mapping is based in minimal
metric distortion, so, why I got the following
differences?: Region Computed areas (mm^2) Computed areas (mm^2) uing mri_surfcluster as explained before with the fsaverage sphere 1 27.56 15.0522
  2      21.78                   15.0946
  3      21.41                   15.1087
  4      20.77                   15.1501
  5      19.28                   15.1797
6 16.60 15.1918 7 15.99 15.2781 8 14.31 15.3373
  9      13.89                   15.0541

In both cases the same surface vertexes  were found to
be inside the regions

Another thing:

Should I use the sig.mgh file resulted from the
mri_glm estimation as the input to the mri_surfcluster
function in MonteCarlo simulations? (plus the .csd
file of course).

In advance thank you a lot
Jorge
