Hi FreeSurfer experts,
I have recently been wondering about the correct unit for curvature and local gyrification index.
For curvature I find inconsistent information like: mm^-2 (https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/ima.20138, page 47), but also that curvature values are expressed in degrees (https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1053811905006543, page 1125).
For local gyrification index these papers make it seem like there is just not unit: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5397412/#:~:text=A%20large%20GI.... https://www.jneurosci.org/content/jneuro/31/19/7174.full.pdf
Which are the correct units? Happy to get some expert input on this, thank you so much!
Best, Lea
