Hi Bruce, I am using freesurfer to generate masks for fmri data from a breath hold task.
As you are probably well aware, this task activates much of the gray matter. I have been content to consider all gray matter as one large ROI but one of my colleagues on the project (Danny Mathalon) has suggested that we might want to look at the BH response more regionally. We have a smallish sample and don't want to go to far with data. So we thought that a reasonable comprimise might be to go for the 4 major lobes. Does this make sense? I do all of my fmri work in MNI space so what I have been doing is registering the freesurfer output to MNI space using SPM tools to get masks and then do the rest with afni.
