Thanks for your answer.

Furthermore, if I read the mri_preproc data (Group.mgh) by load_mgh in Matlab as below,

Data=load_mgh(Group.mgh) 

then the size of Data =(163842,1,1,3)

So, is the Data(2,1,1,3) represented the cortical thickness of the third subject (from fsgd file) on the second vertex (vertex number = 1)?
