what happens if you run it without the mask?

I just wanted to follow up on this - based on the output I sent previously, they seem to have the same resolution (unless I've missed something). They do have different orientations. Could this be an issue, or can gmlfit handle that? I'm also really stumped as to why I appear to be getting good F.nii.gz files, but bad sig.nii.gz files.

Here is what I get for the mask:

It looks like the mask is the wrong size. What is the dimension of
/autofs/cluster/neuromod/NIFTI/OCD_N M/derivatives/fsfast/rois/recall/lIFG_surf_rad10.nii.gz
you can check with mri_info

Hi,

I am running glmfit on some functional data (using ces.nii.gz surface files as input) using ROIs and the --mask argument, that I plan to later submit to glmfit-sim for small volume correction. I have some rois that are subcortical and some that are surfaces. For the glmfit run within the surface ROIs the output sig.nii.gz files all voxels have a value of zero. However, this is not the case for the F.nii.gz and z.nii.gz files output by the same glmfit command - they have non-zero voxels. This issue only occurs for the surface ROIs, when I run glmfit in subcortical ROIs the sig.nii.gz files look normal.

The surface ROIs were created by using afnis 3dundump to create 10mm spheres from MNI coordinates. I then ran the MNI template through freesurfer, and used the regheader from this to run mri_vol2surf to put the spherical ROIs into fsaverage space. I am able to view the resulting surface ROIs projected onto the fsaverage surface in freeview, and have checked that my ces.nii.gz function files can also be overlayed onto the same fsaverage template in freeview.

The output of one of the glmfit commands in question is below.

thanks!
