i don't really use tkmedit. with freeview it's right where it should be -- e.g., see attached.

does it align with say the orig.mgz when viewed in tkmedit?

hi bruce,
the mask was generated by morphing a binary mask from CVS space back to the subject's anatomical space. the cvs mask was generated from a functional parcellation algorithm our lab uses.
if it's useful -- the registration header in the anatomical-space mask is identical to the orig.mgz's.

when you say it is in the native anatomical space can you elaborate? How did you create the mask?
