you should be able to load it into tksurfer as an overlay.

Hi Bruce, 
Thanks for your help yesterday. I was able to create the .mgh file using the 
-output_type mgh option, but I am still unable to
load it in tksurfer as label or anything else. If you or Doug have any other 
suggestions, I would really appreciate it. Thanks!

Jonathan

      Hi Jonathan

      try -output_type mgh. It should create a "volume" that is nvertices long. 
Not sure if it can directly create a label
      file, maybe Doug knows?

      I used the following options: mri_vol2surf --hemi lh --regheader subject01
--cortex --mov label.mgz --o ./label.mghIt ran without error, but I could
not open the resulting file in tksurfer as either a label or an overlay:
---------
/Applications/freesurfer/tktools/tksurfer.bin: no data in label file
/Users/label.mgh
tkmedit: Trying to open /Users/label.dat
surfer: Interpreting overlay volume /Users/label.mgh as encoded scalar
volume

Best,

            Hi Bruce, 
            I would like to convert the .mgz label volume to a
            surface label for that
            subject, but mri_vol2surf requires a registration
            file.

                  you don't need to register it if it's shown
            properly in tkmedit
                  or freeview. Can you tell us more about what
            you are trying to
                  do?

                        Hi Bruce, 
                        Thanks for the quick response. The label
            is a
                        manually traced area of the
                        cortex. It is in subject scanner space
            and has a
                        single value, so it
                        probably would not work with bbregister.
            I can load
                        it in tkmedit as a
                        segmentation and the alignment is
            correct. I
                        attached a screenshot. Is there
                        a way to select the values greater than
            zero in
                        tkmedit and save as a label
                        that could be used in vol2surf? I have
            other labels
                        that are larger so I
                        would prefer not to retrace them if
            possible.

                              what is the label? What space is
            it in? If it
                        has gray/white
                              contrast you could try bbregister.

                                    Hi Freesurfer Experts, 
                                    I have a binary volume label
            in subject
                        space that I
                                    converted from MINC to MGZ.
            I would like
                        to register
                                    it to
                                    the surface of that subject
            as a flat
                        label. I
                                    thought I would be able to
            do so with
                        mri_vol2surf
                                    but I am not
                                    sure how to generate the
            required
                        registration file.
                                    Is that the correct command,
            and if so,
                        which
                                    registration
                                    file should I use?

                                    Thanks
