Hi Younghoon
what structure are you talking about? In general it doesn't make sense to flatten volumetric structures. We flatten the cortex, which is a folded 2D sheet. What would you do with the interior of the volume?

Hello,
We have a volumetric data (mgz file) of a segmented brain region. We want to detect the surface of this segmented brain volume (i.e. deep brain region) and flatten it into a 2D image with its original surface texture.
We’ve noticed that Freesurfer supports an algorithm to flatten volumetric data. We wonder if this could be adapted to our data set. Can anyone offer some advice on how to apply FreeSurfer to this more generic task?
Thanks,
