Dear Freesurfer experts,
I'm doing ROI analysis on surface area and gray matter volume using the aparc.2009 parcellation. Now that I wanted to use corresponding whole brain measures as covariates, I could not find whole brain gray matter volume measures in the aparc.a2009s.stats file. However, I find one in the aseg.stats file. Since I believe these two file use different approaches to estimate gray matter volume, I'm stuck with what I choose for the whole brain measure. Do I use the value in aseg.stats or do I add up the volumes of regions in aparc.a2009s.stats? And advice is appreciated.
Thanks, Cherry
