Alternatively I think Rudolph may have had some tools for computing actual geodesics (the procedure about will give you like a 10% error) Cheers Bruce From: freesurfer-boun...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu<mailto:freesurfer-boun...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu> <freesurfer-boun...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu<mailto:freesurfer-boun...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu>> On Behalf Of Krieger, Donald N.

The distance need not be guaranteed to be minimized and the path need not be unique. Can you suggest an approach using the freesurfer tools?
