I have tried and it did not work (the same seg fault, see below). It seems that it successfully performs the mapping but it fails in final step probably saving the results. Is the data format that I used OK?

I am using Ubuntu 10.10, the version of "mri_vol2surf" is "stable5". Please let me knoe if more information is required.   Thanks.

~$ mri_vol2surf  --mov fMRI.nii.gz  --reg bbregister/fmri-TO-orig.dat  --hemi  lh  --o ./timeCourse.mgz 
srcvol = fMRI.nii.gz
srcreg = bbregister/fmri-TO-orig.dat
srcregold = 0
srcwarp unspecified
surf = white
hemi = lh
reshape = 0
interp = nearest
float2int = round
GetProjMax = 0

Hi Kaveh

use bbregister to register your functional data to the surface, then mri_vol2surf to sample it from the volume onto the surface and you should be all set.

cheers

Hi FreeSurfer Users,


I am new to the Freesurfer, I have a question regarding mapping of the
resting state fMRI time courses on the cortex area. I apologise in case my
question is naive. please bear with me:

Is it possible to have time-courses sampled from cortex? I mean how can I
get corresponding time-course for each vertex on the cortex ? I know that
FreeSurfer can produce mask for cortex are but I would like to have
time-courses on the flattened (2D) map; ie assuming that cortex is
flattened, each pixel of the 2D flattened image which resides in the cortex
(I guess it corresponds to a vertex on the cortex manifold?) is time-series.

I have ran recon-all on the T1. All of those operation were done using a
third party packages that uses freesurfer namely CMTK (http://cmtk.org). I
do not exactly know how to use "bbregister" to register the parcellation on
the resting-state fMRI image?

I would be thankful if you can help.


Thanks
