Ok great! Thanks for the quick responses, and for your help.

Best,
Krista

no, those are whole-brain parcellations so ever vertex is already assigned the most likely label for it

Ok perfect. Just one last question, how would I use the thresholded option
for the annotations (i.e. aparc.DKTatlas40.annot, aparc2009s.annot) when
doing whole brain analyses?
Thanks!

            Great thanks Bruce! I'm assuming then that using the
            thresh.label is the
            best choice.

                  Hi Krista

                  the unthresholded labels give every point that
            has a non-zero
                  probability of being in the label, no matter
            how unlikely. The
                  .thresh ones are thresholded to pick the most
            likely vertices
                  that give a label that is the right surface
            area.

                        Hi, I've just started using the newest
            freesurfer v
                        5.3 and I've noticed in
                        the labels folder that every .label has
            a
                        thresh.label. When overlaying the
                        two, they can be quite different (for
            example
                        MT.label is much larger than
                        MT.thresh.label) or quite similar
            (V1.label is just
                        a tiny bit larger than
                        V1.thresh.label). What is the difference
            between the
                        two and which is best
                        to use?
                        Thanks!
