Hi Fereshte,

mris_volume does not create any output files, that number you see in the terminal is the total volume of a given closed surface.

Try running mris_volume -v <surface_file> instead and you will see something like this in your terminal:

reading <surface_file>...
surface file read in.
Volume computation took 0 minutes and 1 seconds.
total volume surrounded by the surface is 381271
