External Email - Use Caution Dear Doug,
Thanks for the fast reply. Well we calculated the measures surface area (SA) , thickness (THK), volume (VOL) in each participant (in surf folder) of our groups and evaluated the differences between them using Monte Carlo. Now we wanted just for descriptive purposes to be able to see the average THK, VOL and SA in each of the 3 groups mentioned before projected on the group average. So yes every voxel in the map would contain the average value of eg. Thickness in that voxel in the group. To obtain that we created an average brain of every group using the following command: make_average_subject —subjects A1 B2.. —out Group_average After this we had an average of each of our 3 groups, (in the groups space I assume). In the surf folder of every group I could find the average thickness and area map. here an example : in freeview we loaded the surface inflated and took the overalay lh.thickness in one of our groups. Now I would like to have the same for the average volume in the group, however I am not quite sure how to obtain that, as there is no lh.volume file in the average brain of our group. I think this question was asked before see: https://www.mail-archive.com/freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/msg05874.html <https://www.mail-archive.com/freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/msg05874.html> However I could not really follow the instructions there.
