yes, that's all true, but the #s reported in the aseg.mgz use a partial volume estimation to correct for border voxels using the image intensities in the norm.mgz

Hi Bruce,
I'll see if I can phrase this right
In aseg.mgz each region has essentially been given a unique number (e.g. 17 for left hippocampus, for example). ROI taken from aseg.mgz volumes are non-probabilistic, yes-no affairs already. MRI_binarize just pulls this out when we want to look at particular regions, say left hipp???

Hey Doug, THanks. That looks simpler. I'll probably use that. Question: Will the total volume of a ROI taken from aseg.mgz correspond to the volume given in aseg.stats?

For example, what would be the remaining volume of a label when z >= nth slice, where I would have previously determined the appropriate value of n.
