Hi experts,
How can I convert a surface in .gii format to a surface in .mgh or nii.gz format?
I tried with mris_convert but it doesn't work.
Best regards, Marina
Hi Marina
can you include command line and full screen output (in text!) so we can understand what you mean by "it doesn't work". Also, note that .mgh/.nii.gz are volume formats, not surface ones, so you can't convert a surface to them. You will need to use our surface format

You will need to convert it to FreeSurfer surface format (instead of MGH/NIFTI, which are volume formats), the standard one is the binary surface format. Assuming your file is 'lh.white.gii':
mris_convert lh.white.gii lh.white
or to use the less common ASCII version (I would not recommend that):
mris_convert lh.white.gii lh.white.asc
Best,
Tim
