Hi Juan,

Thanks! You're right, they really are tightly correlated (although their
absolute values differ by 30%). We tried it on couple of subjects, but
didn't find subfields to be significantly better than aseg stats though. By
the way, is Freesurfer capable of using multiple scans from the same
subject (longitudinal study, same modality) to make more precise
measurements? For example by using T1 from the same subject / different
time instead of T2 in subfields?

Thanks!
Mojmir
