Mehul, I'm not sure what you are trying to do? Just get a version of the aparc+aseg into mni152 space? If so, what is the application? In most applications (eg, linear intersubject registration), this is not very useful because the cortical labels are quite small (tailored to surface-based analyses) so they don't usually create good ROIs for volume-based group analyses. Note that even though cvs_avg35_inMNI152 is in "mni152 space" CVS registration was used so applying it to data co-registrered with another technique might not work all that well.

ps. The command line looks right.

Hi Doug,
I have a followup question on this topic. I understand the two command you mentioned in this thread to warp a segmentation to the MNI152 space.
In the subjects dir, I see there is an average subject "cvs_avg35_inMNI152" which is already in MNI space (and the volume size is 256^3). I want to just reslice the aparc+aseg.mgz to size of the MNI template (91*109*91)
Since this subject is already in MNI152 space, I can just do the following right?
mri_label2vol --subject cvs_avg35_inMNI152 --aparc+aseg --temp spm-T1.nii --o aparc+aseg2.nii --regheader aparc+aseg.mgz (where spm-T1.nii is the T1 template from spm)
Or would you recommend a different approach ?
Thanks Mehul ps: Earlier I used mri_convert as follows: mri_convert aparc+aseg.mgz -rt nearest -rl spm-T1.nii aparc+aseg1.mgz
But then I recalled your advice (from earlier) to use mri_label2vol convert the segmentation labels and followed it!

Note: you can run each command with --help to get info something like mni152reg --s subject to create the registration file (it will go into $SUBJECTS_DIR/$subject/mri/transforms/reg.mni152.2mm.dat then something like mri_label2vol --seg $SUBJECTS_DIR/$subject/mri/aseg.mgz --reg $SUBJECTS_DIR/$subject/mri/transforms/reg.mni152.2mm.dat --o aseg.$subject.mni152.nii doug On 11/25/2013 11:09 AM, ebelleau@uwm.edu <mailto:ebelleau@uwm.edu> wrote: > Hi Douglas, > > Thanks for the reply.
