Dear Freesurfers, I am using mri_label2label in Fs v5.0.0 to map a label between subjects. I have some problems in that the target label shows little holes while the location of the target label seems to correspond rather well with the source label. Checking these holes backward to the source subject using the function tools/send to subject in tksurfer ... brings the saved point in the source label.
I think this problem has been reported in the list before (see copy below) but unfortunately I do not find a solution that removes the holes. In my case I see this now and then both for ROIs that I drew myself in tksurfer but also pre-defined ROIs that were already there (e.g., rh.G_and_S_cingul-Mid-Ant.label). What might go wrong here? I am using --regmethod surface and trgsurf white. I wondered further how one may check how well mri_label2label worked for each subject. Is there a way to test that source and target labels have the same location in terms of for example gyri and sulci? Are there cases that mri_label2label cannot work? Thank you very much for your help, any suggestions appreciated!

Douglas N Greve Tue, 21 Sep 2010 06:47:09 -0700 what does the original label look like? Can you convert one of the predefined labels (eg, lh.V1.label) to see if the same thing happens? doug Pye, Brandon (NIH/NIMH) [F] wrote: > Hey guys, > > We are using mri_label2label to convert a label created from a cluster (using > mri_surfcluster) from an average subject to each individual subject.
