Hi Qiongmin

1) The command you ran resamples the thickness from being a scalar field over the subject surface to being a scalar field over the fsaverage surface. If you load fsaverage (say inflated) in tksurfer or freeview you should then be able to load the overlay onto it.

2) We provide pre-flattened patches named ?h.cortex.patch.flat for fsaverage so if you have mapped the data there, there is no need to cut and flatten again

cheers

Dear Doug and all,

I have already done two things:
(1) 'recon-all’ to the segmentation for 140 subjects;
(2) surface registration to fsaverage template for 1 subject using: 
mri_surf2surf --hemi lh --srcsubject sub001 --srcsurfval thickness --src_type 
curv --trgsubject fsaverage --trgsurfval ./sub001-thickness-lh.mgz

Now I have got the 'sub001-thickness-lh.mgz' file.

I have two questions:
(1) Is this 'sub001-thickness-lh.mgz’ a surface file or a volume file? How can 
I read it?
I used ‘freeview sub001-thickness-lh.mgz’ to read it, but a dark scene was 
shown, nothing can be found.
I also used ‘mris_convert  -c $SUBJECTS_DIR/sub001/sub001-thickness-lh.mgz  
$SUBJECTS_DIR/sub001/surf/lh.orig  lh.thickness.asc’, an error occurred like 
‘ERROR: number of vertices in 
/disk250/data_analysis/sub001/sub001-thickness-lh.mgz does not match surface 
(163842, 132230)’.
(2) After the registration, I want to flatten the surface of curvature or 
thickness into a full plane. The wiki says we should first specify 5 vertices 
and cut the whole area without the midline region, then ‘kris_flatten’ can be 
used. Indeed, this procedure requires quite a lot manually operation. I am 
wondering if there are some automatically commands that can do this flatten 
projects for 140 subject?

Any reply would be really appreciated!

Qiongmin
