Hi Mike,
there are no options to that binary. There's also mris_distance_to_label that might be more useful for you, or mris_distance_transform. Thomas Yeo (ccd) wrote the algorithm and can give you more details if you want about how it is implemented, or you are welcome to the source code if you want.
cheers, Bruce

Hi All,
I'd like to use mris_distance_map, but it looks like the usage/help info is missing or broken (At least in 4.4.0/4.5.0). When I try it with just the command or -help, it looks like this:
mwaskom@ba2:~$ mris_distance_map --help usage: mris_distance_map [options] <input surface file> <output scalar field (.mgz)>
This program will compute a distance map of each point on the surface to a reference point (vertex 0 by default)
valid options are: mwaskom@ba2:~$
Can someone help me out with these mysterious options? Also, how is it calculating distance? Thanks!
Mike
