There are files called lh.area and lh.volume that you can use
instead of lh.thickness. Make sure to use the --jac flag when
applying mri_surf2surf to area or volume (but not thickness). This
applies jacobian correction to preserve the total area or volume.
When you run mri_segstats, include the --accumulate flag so that
it reports the total area or volume.
External Email - Use Caution Hi again Doug, Sorry for not realizing this earlier, but I actually found a workflow that you created, which outlines the steps really well. (https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/VolumeRoiCorticalThickness) However, instead of 'fsaverage' I used the the MNI brain I had previously recon-ed to map the ROI to the surface. By using mri_surf2surf I mapped my subject's thickness data to the mni brain and optained the cortical thickness. My questions are the following: how do I obtain the surface area and volume for this ROI? Is there a way to also obtain non-segmented stats? Also, the reason I didn't map the ROI to fsaverage was because I didn’t have access...is there a way to change that? Thank you for your time. Best, Ryan

Just to clarify, the first command should be mri_vol2surf, correct? It appears to have worked; however, I'm not sure what my --trgsurfval should be? I'm trying the following commands, where mni is the subject directory for the mni brain I recon-ed and sub01 is the subject I want to transfer the atlas to so that I can obtain the cortical thickness. > > 1. mri_vol2surf --mov atlas.nii.gz --regheader mni --hemi lh --projfrac-max 0 1 .1 --o lh.atlas.nii.gz > 2. mri_surf2surf --srcsubject mni --srcsurfval lh.atlas.nii.gz --trgsubject sub01 --trgsurfval hammers-01-lh.img --mapmethod nnf > > I tried running mri_surf2surf --help, but unfortunately the examples didn’t really apply to my case.
