Dear Freesurfers,

In Fischl et al. 1999 it is highlighted, that the topological structure of the 
original surface is preserved in the spherical space and due to the nature of a 
sphere, computations (distance, area) measures are easy to make.

My question now, concerns the comparability of distance measures between 
subjects in the group fsaverage sphere. My aim is to compare distances between 
peak voxels coordinates of two study populations, to figure out if a systematic 
difference exist between the peak voxel distances of the two study populations.

Can I compare the distances between peak voxels (vertices) between different 
subjects based on the fsaverage group sphere? So, is the comparability of 
distances between vertexes of individually spheres preserved in group fsaverage 
space?

Ps: I know that the distances in spherical space are not Euclidian but still 
geodesic


Best wishes and thanks in advance,
