Hi,freesurfers:
 
    Recently,I read a paper which used freesurfer to processed their data,this 
is the paper's 
link:http://www.plosbiology.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pbio.0060159
In this paper,the antor said :
"One of the critical steps of the whole procedure was to partition the 
participants' cortex into ROIs located in an identical topographic position for 
each participant despite interindividual anatomical variation. We used 
Freesurfer to register a labeled mesh from an average brain onto the brain of 
each individual participant, where each label corresponded to one of 66 
anatomical cortical regions . This output provided for every participant a 
standardized partition of the cortex into 66 regional areas. In a second step, 
each of these regional areas were subdivided on the Freesurfer average brain 
into a set of small and compact regions of about 1.5 cm2, resulting in 998 ROIs 
covering the entire cortex. This subdivision was then registered on the 
individual brain using the same transformation as for the 66 regional areas 
thus maintaining the topological constraints of mapping. Consequently, the 
resulting partitions of the cortex into 66 and 998 ROIs were in anatomically 
closely matched positions for all participants "
 
So,I wander how can we subdivided the 66 ROIs into 998 ROIs?
 
Thanks,
wang
