External Email - Use Caution        

Hi Emma,

I know it's been a long time, but my RA recently explored this and we think
that mri_aparc2aseg might be a better option that mri_label2vol. Anyway,
here's the updated process for mapping the Yeo2011 networks from fsaverage5
to individual volumetric space:

1) Transform from fsaverage to subject's surface
mri_surf2surf --srcsubject fsaverage5 --trgsubject yoursubject --hemi lh
--sval-annot path_to/lh.Yeo2011_17Networks_N1000.annot –tval
$SUBJECTS_DIR/yoursubject/label/lh.Yeo_17Network_native.annot
(repeat for rh)

2) Transform from subject's surface into your subject's volume
Instead of using "mri_label2vol", we now recommend using "mri_aparc2aseg".
This will give you ROIs that fully cover subject's grey matter.

mri_aparc2aseg --s yoursubject --annot Yeo_17Network_native --o
$SUBJECTS_DIR/yoursubject/mri/outputfile.mgz

One thing to note: "mri_aparc2aseg" will automatically add 1000 for left
cerebral cortex voxels and add 2000 for right cerebral cortex voxels.
Therefore, for example, a left hemisphere voxel in network 5 will have a
value of 1005 in your outputfile.mgz. Here is our suggestion:
a) Find the indices of left/right cerebral cortex by extracting the voxels
with a value of 3 or 42 in the subject's aseg.
b) Use those indices to mask out the voxels that are not cerebral cortex in
your outputfile.mgz file (i.e. set non cerebral cortical voxels to be 0).
c) For the cortical voxels, you may subtract 1000 for those between 1000
and 2000; and subtract 2000 for those greater than 2000.

Thanks,
Thomas
