Hi Doug,

I was able to get the surface connectivity analysis to run successfully for
the L.Cingulate example that you posted online (
http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/FsFastFunctionalConnectivityWalkthrough
). For my own analysis, I'm hoping to use my own functionally defined ROIs
instead of freesurfer segmented regions. For that, do I pass a vol2surf
command on my spherical ROIs and then run the same analysis? I saw that to
prepare a ROI for this kind of analysis, I need to create a configuration
file using funcroi-config, but this command seems to use anatomical ROIs
based on freesurfer segmentation again.

Could you advise how to proceed?

Thanks,
Jiahe
