Hi Ola, this probably will not work. The tal coordinate is notoriously inaccurate in cortex. You are verylikely to totally miss the area you are looking for. A better way is to run the MNI template through recon-all, map your VBM result to the surface of that, then use mri_surf2surf to map the effect to each individual.

Hi Doug,
Thank you, again! I decided to try to use the Talairach coordinates from my analysis for ROI extraction. I created an average subject and preprocessed the data (mris_preproc). I obtained the vertex index based on the coordinates from the average subject. Any ideas on how I can now find the corresponding vertices in all my subjects?
Thanks very much! Ola
