Thanks! It seems to rotate the data, though. It does convert the data back to the original dimensions (256X256X176), ut the dimensions are switched. When I save the vol as nii and open in brainvoyager, the sagittal appears in coronal, etc. I tried switching the 256 dimensions, but it remains rotated (in a different rotation), so somehow the conversion to native space rotates the data. Any suggestions? Aya

I think the cmdline would be: mri_convert -rl rawavg.mgz -rt nearest aseg.mgz aseg.rawavg.mgz -rl = reslice like -rt = resample type cheers Bruce On Wed, 27 Oct 2010, Aya Ben Yakov wrote: > Hi > I'm sorry for all these questions, but I'm very new to freesurfer, and I still > don't really understand how things work. > Is it necessary to convert to nifti? if I understand correctly, mri.vol should > hold the needed information.
