Hi Bruce,

That would be great. I'm aware of the difficulty in putting partial volume 
information into segmentation, but maybe it could help to achieve other useful 
information as aseg.stats only provides the total volume for each label.

Thanks,

Anthony

Hi Anthony,

we're happy to provide the code, but there's no easy way to get a mask,

since each border voxel has more than 1 label in it.

cheers,
Bruce

certain class (e.g WM) after partial volume correction using FS ? Or is it 
possible for you to provide more details of it so I can reproduce the 
calculation to get the mask ?
