Hi Emma,

Could you clarify what would be the disadvantages that you've heard about? I ask because we've studied and tried to clarify many aspects of the analysis of surface area in this paper. Maybe if there's something not covered there we could try to comment then.

Thanks!

All the best,

Anderson

Dear Freesurfers,
I recently heard that there are several disadvantages to using a measure of cortical surface area in Freesurfer, specifically due to conducting a vertex-wise analysis. Can someone help me understand why a measure of surface area using this approach might be flawed? Thanks!
