Hi Paul

Have you run recon-all on your data? If so, then there will be .annot files 
that you can use to look up what parcellation unit is at that coordinate in any 
given subject.  Or closest to that coordinate as in general it may not be in 
the cortex

Cheers

Subject: [Freesurfer] Creating an Freesurfer .annot file from an MNI coordinate 
region of interest


        External Email - Use Caution

Dear FS community,

My ultimate goal is to do a seed of interest connectivity analysis. 
Accordingly, I have MNI coordinates for a seed (e.g., left DLPFC). However, for 
the softwares I am using (CONN toolbox and Brainstorm), I need a .annot file 
which has the surface region of interest label I want to use as the seed.

My problem is I do not know how to create an .annot file from MNI coordinates 
of my seed/region of interest.

Can I create an .annot or label file with Freesurfer centered around an MNI 
coordinate, or would I first need to create a volume ROI using another software?

Any directions as to how I can do this would be greatly appreciated.

Best Wishes,
Paul
