External Email - Use Caution        

Hello FreeSurfer Developers,
I would like to know if it is correct to perform volume and surface area 
analysis using freesurfer's GLM!?

In several mailing list questions I have already seen instructions for 
performing these types of analysis. But I understand that freesurfer does 
vertex-wise analysis in the 2D surface space. So, it is not clear to me how it 
is possible to evaluate a 3D measurement, as volume, with a 2D method!?

I've also read that surface area analysis via vertex-wise analysis doesn't make 
much sense. The best would be to do ROI-based analysis. Can you explain that to 
me?

Thanks in advance!
