Hi Bruce, We are only interested in the surface image of the volumetric data.
For flattening, we do not care about the interior of the volume, so we would like to remove the volume data inside. So what we want is to peel off the surface from the segmented brain area and flatten that surface.

In general it doesn't make sense to flatten volumetric structures. We flatten the cortex, which is a folded 2D sheet. What would you do with the interior of the volume? cheers Bruce On Wed, 20 Jul 2016, Younghoon Kim wrote: > Hello, > > We have a volumetric data (mgz file) of a segmented brain region.
