Hi Anthony, For cortical gray matter volume, compute statistics using the {lh,rh}.cortex.label file.
i.e., mris_anatomical_stats -l lh.cortex.label -f $subj/stats/lh.cortex.stats $subj lh That will be roughly similar to computing the volume difference between the pial and white surfaces, except that the label file takes into account that portions of the medial temporal lobe (e.g., hippocampus and amygdala) are not cortex. cheers, Mike H.
