Hi Freesurfer team,

I am transforming several adjacent surface labels into volume ROIs, using mri_label2vol. When doing so, there seems to be some possibly unavoidable overlap in a small number of voxels in the volume ROIs. Is there any way to avoid these labels from overlapping when transformed into the volume? I see that mri_label2vol takes an --annot flag, would this help in avoiding overlap in the outputs? 

Otherwise, I can remove the overlapping voxels int he nifti file outputs, but I was wondering if the algorithm had any options to do this as part of the surface-to-volume transform. 

Thanks so much!
Jacob
