External Email - Use Caution        

Hello FreeSurfer Developers,



I'm attempting to resample beta weights generated from AFNI’s 3dDeconvolve
command to individual subjects’ cortical surfaces. Prior to running
3dDeconvolve, I ran bbregister to coregister subjects’ (unwarped)
functional data to their T1 anatomical scans and to generate a registration
file to be used in the mri_vol2surf command.



However, I get the following warning when I run the mri_vol2surf command:



WARNING: the voxel resolution in the source volume (3.75, 3.75, 3.75)
differs from that listed in the registration file (3.75, 3.75, 5)



I've searched the list and came across a potentially similar case from Apr.
26, 2011 (SUBJECT: (no subject), AUTHOR: Kevin Bickart), which included the
following advice:



Hi Kevin, you can ignore that warning. The values in the registration

file are not correct.

I thought I would reach out to inquire as to whether this is still the case
(i.e., that this warning can be ignored) or if it might be a more serious
issue? I will add that mri_vol2surf did appear to run successfully (i.e.,
it did not error out) and provided a .mgh file as output.



In case it is helpful, as a next step I plan to convert the .mgh file to an
ASCII file to extract the time series. Ultimately, I plan to run graph
analyses on the time series data.



Any feedback you have would be greatly appreciated.

1) FreeSurfer version: freesurfer_6.0_x86_64

2) Platform: OSX High Sierra



Here is my command:

mri_vol2surf --mov ../betaEPI/ Betas_EPIpreproc.nii --srcreg
../bbregistration.dat --hemi lh --projfrac 0.5 --o ./lh.1.mgh



mris_convert -c ./lh.1.mgh $parc_dir/${1}/surf/lh.white ../lh_ascii/lh.1.asc





And the full output:

srcvol = ../betaEPI/Betas_EPIpreproc.nii

srcreg = ../bbregistration.dat

srcregold = 0

hemi = lh

ProjFrac = 0.5
