Hi Martin you can use whichever surface you want - they are just different biological questions. The files we write out by default relate to the white surface, but you can certainly generate the equivalent for the pial using mris_curvature. In general the curvature is 1/r, where r is the rad

External Email - Use Caution Thank you so much every one for helping me in this regard. I have some follow up questions: I am interested in associating mean curvature (H) with some behavioral measure. After extracting subject-wise mean curvature estimates, I found a significant po

a 2D manifold has two principal curvatures, usually called k1 and k2, which are the curvature in the direction of maximum curvature and minimum curvature (they are also the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the Hessian of the surface if it is expressed as a function over the tangent bundle). The

External Email - Use Caution K and H are the Gaussian Curvature and the Mean Curvature. Both can be computed based on the 2 principal curvatures k1 and k2 of a surface. K and H are not identical to the folding index, though they are related to it via k1 and k2. k1 and k2 are als

External Email - Use Caution Thanks Dr. Greve. That works, but both white.K and white.H are giving me very different output values. For example, for first few subjects I get: -0.00237-0.00450-0.00204 0.00113-0.00228-0.00958 -0.00314 0.00180-0.00452 if I

External Email - Use Caution Hi, Just like volume, I have "Folding Index" measures saved in lh/rh.aparc.stats files for each subject. If I am using mris_preproc *--meas volume* --out CV/lh.CV.mgh command to concat cortical volume files from all subjects, then how can I use this c
