Hello FS-list,

Could you please confirm the recommended current approach for
calculating the total cortical gray matter volume.

Based on the following Wiki page
http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/MorphometryStats?
action=highlight&value=mris_volume
I presume that the recommended calculation (illustrated using tcsh
syntax) is:

@ total_cort_gm_vol = `mris_volume ?h.pial` - `mris_volume ?h.white`

My only hesitation is that I noticed the resulting value doesn't quite
match the value of "total gray matter volume" that is output by
mris_anatomical_stats.  Is this because mris_anatomical_stats uses a
older approach that is no longer considered quite as accurate?

thanks,
Mike Harms
