Re: [Freesurfer] smoothing with mri_surf2surf

I'm working with a Stable 4 version of FreeSurfer. I think your explaination about the vertices is acctually the answer to my question. The variation that I'm seeing between the pre-masked, and non-pre-masked surface is quite small, but never-the-less present. If this is the case, I think t

What version are you using? I just checked this on my current version (and this part has not changed in a long time), and it gave the same result in the mask regardless of whether I masked the input or not. One thing that I did find is that it will smooth the vertices that are outside the mask

You are correct, surf2surf is not changing the values from out side the masked region. However the problem is that in smoothing the values inside the masked region surf2surf appears to be incorporating values from outside the masked region (even if its not smoothing these "outside" values).

mri_surf2surf will not change the values outside of the mask (those will be left unsmoothed). Is there an actual difference in the mask? doug Gregory Dierksen wrote: Hi, I want to smooth a cortical thickness map using values only in a specific area. Basically I want to mask out all o

Hi, I want to smooth a cortical thickness map using values only in a specific area. Basically I want to mask out all other segmentations, for example smooth with fwhm of 20 only in the postcentral region. I've used quite a few combinations of the -label-src and -label-trg flags and noticed
