Ah, OK, makes sense - should have guessed, sorry, vol2surf behaved so agreeably with the vertex-free mask!
Shall make that surf mask now, thanks much,
Fred

Oh, the label should be a surface label. mri_cor2label creates a volume label (basically it just means that each label point corresponds to a 1mm3 cube instead of a verex -- the vertex numbers should all be -1). Try running vol2surf on the mask (using nearest interp) to create a surface mask. Then create a surface label with mri_cor2label using the --surf option. doug

Hi Doug
I've actually tried both inclusive and exclusive and have failed - just checked again in tkmedit that the label was coming up correctly and it was.
Just to double-check - the label should be in the space of the --mov, right?
Thanks!
Fred
Hi Fred, that mask is an inclusive mask, not an exclusive mask. Try inverting you mask. doug On 4/14/13 4:31 PM, Fred Dick wrote: Dear all
I am painting some higher-res anatomical data from a volume to a surface, and want to use a mask that excludes the vessels. (The same data but 1x1x1 conformed were used to create the surface). I've created a binary label in the same space
mri_cor2label --i ./R2Mask.nii.gz --l ./R2s.label --id 1
made sure that it looks ok when I read in hi-res to tkmedit and display label, then ran mri_vol2surf
mri_vol2surf --mov ./sPQ07082012-0009-00001-000208-01_R1.nii --regregister.dat --surf-fwhm 4 --hemi $hemi --projfrac $frac --interp trilinear --out_type w --mask R2s.label --o ./dancar-0.5-lh.w
And got the output (pasted below), showing that the output is all zero.
Output is fine without label, or with -cortex.
I've also tried this with a conformed version of the label (also verified in tkmedit) and have had the same thing. (I thought maybe it was applying it to orig vol, which I admit would be strange).(I noticed someone had a similar issue a couple of years ago, but it involved a surface rather than volume label, and looked like it had been resolved). Am running current stable version on Mountain Lion.
Thanks for any pointers,
best, Fred
