You can also use mri_binarize (it takes any format as input). We don't have anything that will automatically generate a separate volume for each label.

Hi Jenifer,
yes, you could do that for each label defined in the aseg.stats file (or the FreeSurferColorLUT.txt, but that will contain labels that don't exist in that volume).
what else are you trying to do that you need help with?

I'm interested in parsing aseg.mgz into separate binary mask files for each aseg label. Is this possible? The closest topic I found was located at the following URL:

2.0 Creating binary masks
The segmentation for a particular structure can be extracted to create a binary mask (i.e., a volume where the voxel value is 1 if it is in the structure and 0 otherwise). To make a binary mask of the left putamen, which has been assigned label 12 (see ${FREESURFER_HOME}/FreeSurferColorLUT.txt), use the following command:
avwmaths ./fbert.feat/reg/freesurfer/aparc+aseg.nii.gz \ -thr 12 -uthr 12 \ ./fbert.feat/reg/freesurfer/lh.putamen.nii.gz
I checked the following for additional help...but still need some help...
