[Freesurfer] question about mapping fsaverage surface atlas to subject's native volume space

External Email - Use Caution

Dear experts,

I am trying to convert an atlas which is in fsaverage surface space to each subject's native volume space. However, the alignment seems off (e.g., in the parietal lobe, see attached screenshot). I am not sure where the problem is. Here is the code that I used:

tkregister2 --mov ${subj_dir}/${subj_id}/mri/rawavg.mgz --targ ${subj_dir}/${subj_id}/mri/orig.mgz --reg register.native.dat --noedit --regheader

mri_surf2vol --surfval lh.Wang2015.mgz --hemi lh --subject fsaverage --fillribbon --reg register.native.dat --template ${subj_dir}/${subj_id}/mri/001.mgz --o lh.Wang2015.native.nii.gz

Any help would be highly appreciated! Thank you! Caroline
