can you send your mris_fill command line? And maybe the lh.white surface you are trying to fill?

Hi, Bruce

This is the lh.white that gives me the empty volume when I use mris_fill to
sample it to the volume space. Could you help diagnose what is causing it?
Thank you very much in advance!

Hi Longchuan

I'm not sure what space the volume average is constructed in - Doug would
know. Probably talairach, in which case it won't match the surfaces well.
Can you send along your mris_fill command line? It shouldn't produce an
empty volume. There's no reason to look at the inflated surfaces in the
volume though - they have no volumetric meaning.

cheers
Bruce
