Hi Alex, does the output of mri_vol2surf look ok on the surface? When
you run mri_cor2label, you should use the white or pial surface instead
of inflated, but I don't think that is the problem here. Another thing
to look at is
tkregister2 --mov volumetric-mask --regheader --reg junk.dat --s
subjectname
and make sure that the label is in the right place (hit the compare
button to flip back and forth).
