External Email - Use Caution        

Hello!

Thank you for the tip!

As i understand it, -lGI has only one input which is pial surface. I am running it without any other files in the subject directory, I only have Subject- Name_-Surf- ?h.pial files when I attempt to execute the -lGI on it. So theoretically I do not have any other files to compare vertices count or any other parameter with my input file.

Thank you for your time! Will appreciate any help.

If you replaced the lh.pial and rh.pial files with different ones generated in another software, the vertex counts in these files will almost certainly not match the number of vertices (and faces) of all the other surfaces generated by FreeSurfer (?h.white etc) -- even if the surfaces look similar to the FreeSurfer ones on a macro scale.

You can read them in nibabel and try it.

I doubt that lgi computation is supposed to work if the vertex counts don't match.
