Hi Xi-Nian, it does not do the same thing, but it does something similar. Anderson found that it gave similar results in a lot of cases, but he has found some differences. If he's still following the FS list, maybe he can comment.

Hello Doug,

I am doing some association studies between functional measures and surface area. In using mris_preproc, there is an option --area. Does this do sth similar to that as Winkler et al. (2012)?

Winkler et al., 2012. Measureing and comparing brain cortical surfacearea and other areal quantities.

Thank you very much.
