External Email - Use Caution        

Dear Freesurfer Experts,


I want to generate global measures of cortical thickness and pial surface area analogous to using total cerebral volume as a global brain volume estimate.


In your opinion, would it be reasonable to generate these global thickness and surface area estimates from the following .aparc variables:


SurfArea.lh.Frontal
MeanThick.lh.Frontal
SurfArea.rh.Frontal
MeanThick.rh.Frontal
SurfArea.lh.Occipital
MeanThick.lh.Occipital
SurfArea.rh.Occipital
MeanThick.rh.Occipital
SurfArea.lh.Parietal
MeanThick.lh.Parietal
SurfArea.rh.Parietal
MeanThick.rh.Parietal
SurfArea.lh.Temporal
MeanThick.lh.Temporal
SurfArea.rh.Temporal
MeanThick.rh.Temporal

Regards,


Micah
