Hi Bruce, 

I would like to convert the .mgz label volume to a surface label for that subject, but mri_vol2surf requires a registration file.

Best, 
Jonathan

Hi Jonathan

you don't need to register it if it's shown properly in tkmedit or freeview. Can you tell us more about what you are trying to do?

Hi Bruce, 
Thanks for the quick response. The label is a manually traced area of the
cortex. It is in subject scanner space and has a single value, so it
probably would not work with bbregister. I can load it in tkmedit as a
segmentation and the alignment is correct. I attached a screenshot. Is there
a way to select the values greater than zero in tkmedit and save as a label
that could be used in vol2surf? I have other labels that are larger so I
would prefer not to retrace them if possible.

      Hi Jonathan

      what is the label? What space is it in? If it has gray/white
      contrast you could try bbregister.

            Hi Freesurfer Experts, 
            I have a binary volume label in subject space that I
            converted from MINC to MGZ. I would like to register
            it to
            the surface of that subject as a flat label. I
            thought I would be able to do so with mri_vol2surf
            but I am not
            sure how to generate the required registration file.
            Is that the correct command, and if so, which
            registration
            file should I use?

            Thanks
            Jonathan
