They are conveniently already provided for you in the {lh,rh}.aparc.stats files. And even more conveniently, if you run 'aparcstats2table', with --measure=thickness, the last column is the mean cortical thickness (for that hemisphere), and if you run
with --measure=area, the last column is the total white surface area (for that hemisphere).

How do I get the total thickness and total surface area values form Freesurfer/Qdec please? Thanks again, L From:

On Behalf Of Harms, Michael I'm a fan of using global mean thickness as a covariate for thickness analyses, and total surface area as a covariate for surface area analyses. That way you directly covary for possible global
effects using the same type of measure that you are analyzing. cheers, -MH -- Michael Harms, Ph.D. ----------------------------------------------------------- Conte Center for the Neuroscience of Mental Disorders Washington University School of Medicine Department of Psychiatry, Box 8134 660 South Euclid Ave. Tel: 314-747-6173 St. Louis, MO 63110 Email:
