Hi Lindsay

you can use the m-file read_curv.m to read in the thickness file (lh.thickness or rh.thickness). You can also load .mgf files with either load_mgh.m or MRIread.m, then compute the mean in any subset of the vertices you want.

Hi Bruce, Sorry for the late reply. I have been searching the forum and the 
freesurfer wiki. Are there
instructions somewhere on how to do this in matlab? 
Thanks, 
Lindsay

      Hello Freesurfer Community, 
I am wondering if it is possible to recalculate cortical thickness metrics 
(perhaps using
mri_segstats or aparcstats2table) while including either a SD threshold or an 
exclusion mask. 

Using mri_surf2surf to register scans to the same space and then 
mri_surface_stats to create the
std maps I have been comparing the variability of cortical thickness across the 
cortex for
multiple scans across the same subject. From this I can determine a SD 
threshold point (0.5 say)
or create a mask that includes all regions above that threshold. 

I would like to use this to threshold the regions showing the highest 
variability out of my
calculations for mean hemispheric thickness and also regional thickness. 
Is there a way to use an SD threshold within mri_segstats or aparcstats2table? 
Otherwise apply a
mask image to exclude specific vertices? 

Thank you in advance,

Lindsay
