Dear Bruce, 

I needed the label maps for other registration purposes to run other software. 
So I was thinking if freesurfers outputs one I can use the same one instead of 
creating new ones. 

Thanks for the suggestion and time, I will try to binarize the brainmask.  

Thanks again

Best Regards,
Sarina

sure, internally at times but most of the volumes we save have a bit more
info than that. Is there some reason you need something to actually be
binary? You could binarize the brainmask if you wanted

cheers
Bruce
