No, the last 3 columns (Min Max Range) are the minimum, maximum, and range (maximum - minimum) or the values in path.pd.nii.gz.
But it does look like mri_segstats can get you what you want, if you use a binarized version of path.pd.nii.gz. Use mri_binarize (possibly with a threshold, if you want to threshold the distribution) on path.pd.nii.gz, which will give you an output volume that has 1 inside and 0 outside the pathway. Then you run mri_segstats on that binarized volume. What you want (the volume of the pathway inside each structure) will be the sum of the 1's of the pathway inside each structure. Because mri_segstats doesn't give you the sum but it does give you the mean, you'll have to calculate the sum as the mean multiplied by the total number of voxels in the same structure. So column "Mean" multiplied by column "NVoxels" will give you the number of voxels in each structure that intersect the pathway.

Dear Anastasia, yes I was referring to the last three columns. So for the last three columns is it right what I told you? Is it the volume of the path?

The last few columns, "Mean StdDev Min Max Range", are related to the values in path.pd.nii.gz.

I would like to ask you if I understood well shot it means. In this case left uncinatus connects the following cortex areas: ctx-lh-fusiform ctx-lh-inferiortemporal ctx-lh-lateralorbitofrontal ctx-lh-medialorbitofrontal ctx-lh-middletemporal ctx-lh-rostralanteriorcingulate ctx-lh-superiortemporal ctx-lh-temporalpole ctx-lh-insula and for each area I have the volume of the path. Is it correct?

Try something like: mri_segstats --seg dlabel/diff/aparc+aseg.bbr.nii.gz --ctab $FREESURFER_HOME/FreeSurferColorLUT.txt --excludeid 0 --sum output.txt --i dpath/lh.unc_AS_avg32_mni_flt/path.pd.nii.gz And similarly for any other pathway. See the mri_segstats help for more usage info. Let me know if this gives you what you need. a.y On Fri, 18 Oct 2013, Lucia Billeci wrote: Thanks Anastasia, this is useful for visualization. But to construct a table with for each tracts the parcellation regions that it connects do I need to look at the image?

It depends on the configuration parameters (nsample, nkeep), so it'll be the same if these configuration parameters are the same.
