Hi David,
we really haven't spent much time verifying the eTIV stuff, so I would consider it not-ready-for-primetime at the moment.

Hello All!
I'm trying to calculate eTIV (ICV) based on the new Buckner method, but for reconstructions that were completed prior to the most recent stable release (in 2003-2004). Are there any extra steps or special files that I should be aware of to make this run properly? Is the procedure for estimating ICV on older recons documented anywhere?
I tried running mri_label_volume using the only .lta file available in the subject/mri/transforms directory (talairach_with_skull_un5_tinit_noneck_both_uns3.lta) but the resulting eTIV outputs are much smaller than one would expect. Here's a sample command and output:
[engram:emoaging] (nmr-std-env) mri_label_volume -eTIV $SUBJECTS_DIR/emot_118/mri/transforms/talairach_with_skull_un5_tinit_noneck_both_uns3.lta $SUBJECTS_DIR/emot_118/mri/aseg.mgz 17 53 using eTIV from atlas transform of 878 cm^3 processing label 17... 3730 voxels (3730.0 mm^3) in label 17, %0.424837 of eTIV volume (877983) processing label 53... 3738 voxels (3738.0 mm^3) in label 53, %0.425748 of eTIV volume (877983)
Any advice?
Thanks! David
