Hi Sofie,
no, they don't correspond. You need to use mri_surf2surf to map one to the other (which is a bit tricky).

Dear Free Surfers,
I have a short question regarding the mapping of vertices of the fsaverage_sym, how do vertices in the left hemisphere correspond to vertices in the right hemisphere? When I tested it, it did not seem that the first-indexed vertex on the left hemisphere corresponded to the first-indexed vertex on the right hemisphere defined by me as : (total vertexes/2 + 1) if so, how to calculate the difference between lh and rh?
Thank you very much!!
Kind regards,
Sofie Valk
