I mean; if you devide the number of vertices by the area per aparc-parcellation, some parcellations have relatively more vertices per mm^2 as others. If you now would compute the average thickness in for example the lobe-parcellation, the thicknesses of some areas (the parcellations with relatively more vertices per mm^2) get a higher weight in the overal average. Is that true?

what do you mean? That the vertices are not uniform? mri_segstats just computes the mean over the parcellation without reference to non-uniformity. doug

Sorry, indeed, my reply was too quick. Seems to work, the results are similar to mri_anatomical_stats.
I'm not sure whether this is relevant; but the sampling seems to be not equally dense in the different regions. Does mri_segstats somehow cope with this?
Best, Martijn

Thanks Doug for your quick reply. But mri_segstats computes the average value inside the cortical region in the volume, right? That's not wat I want to have, I want to know the average value of the data in the volume on the wm/gm surface (i sampled with projfrac = 0). Any thoughts?
