Hi all, I was wondering how to edit the voxels of a mask (the name of which is "lh.stg.mask.mgz") so that each voxel would be a value of 1 (if I try adding voxels in tkmedit, their values are 255). Additionally, we use this mask to isolate STG. But instead of a simple binary mask, this mask keeps the white matter values within STG intact (and anything outside is 0). Would adding voxels to the mask in tkmedit change this function? Thanks Dan On Tue, Aug 5, 2008 at 7:40 PM, Bruce Fischl <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>wrote: > I see.
