Hi Chester

you can use the talairach.m3z to map to a common space (which is our nonlinear atlas space). The easiest thing is probably to do (e.g.)

mri_extract_label -t transforms/talairach.m3z aseg.mgz 17 lh.hippo.mgz

this will extract the lh hippo label and transform it into our common atlas space.

cheers

Hello,
Rewording to clarify in case the wording was confusing.  What I would like
to do is to use each registered ROI for intensity based analysis. I am
confused how to use Freesurfer to register and align about three axis.  I
understand there is variability with positioning the head within the scanner
of MRI. I am guessing one solution might be to align each ROI centroid to
the same location. This seems to be a trivial concept, but I was hoping
there was a simple way of doing this using Freesurfer tools.  I appreciate
your time and help.

Thanks,
Chester

Dear experts,
I look like to register a set of extracted hippocampus to a common
atlas.  Here is my workflow:

I used mri_binarize to get a mask of the hippocampus from aseg.mgz and
then used mri_mask to mask the norm.mgz to get a volume of
intensities.  After this process, I noticed that hippocampus do not
seem aligned in terms of the axial axis.  

I have been looking at the registration tools at:

 https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/FreeSurferCommandsRegistration

Would someone please make a recommendation of a freesurfer tool well
suited to registering a set of extracted left or right hippocampus to
a common atlas?  Also is there a flag to indicate the region, for
instance from the look up
table: $FREESURFER_HOME/FreeSurferColorLUT.txt

Thanks,
Chester
