Thanks! I will try it.

activation is peak?

If you know what the vertex number is, you can do something like
mri_volsynth --dim-surf fsaverage/surf/lh.white --pdf delta --delta-crsf 
vertexno 0 0 0 --o delta.mgh
mris_fwhm --i delta.mgh --o delta.sm3.mgh --s fsaverage --hemi lh
mri_binarize --i delta.sm3.mgh --min 0.5 --o delta.sm3.bin.mgh
delta.sm3.bin.mgh will be a binary disk approximately 3mm in radius

Dear FreeSurfer developers,

Hi. I've always appreciated your help.

I am writing this email to kindly ask you how to create a functional ROI where 
activation (which is a result of FS-FAST) is peak. In volume-based analysis, 
people often make a "3mm-sphere" seed around peak activation for connectivity 
analysis. But since it is surface based, there is no "3mm-sphere". Then what 
would it be for surface?

I tried: mri_surfcluster --in ./masked_sig1.nii.gz --hemi lh --subject 
fsaverage --thmin 5 --sum ./summary1.txt, but its output is not actually what I 
want. It tells peak X, Y, Z coordinates, but I want a fixed size of small 
cluster (like 3mm-sphere in volume) for creating a ROI in different masks (like 
peak ROI in V1, peak ROI in V2, etc). In addition, minimum threshold may be 
diffrent depending on masks. By this I mean, if I choose thmin of 5 for both V1 
and V2, V1 may have a huge cluster where vertices have values greater than 5, 
where as V2 may have a small cluster. I just want to get a fixed size of ROI 
around "peak".

How should I make a functional ROI around peak activation on surface?

Kind Regards,
Andy (Junghyun) Kim
