Hi Joakim,

I think you can remove entirely the -t option. The area will be one of the fields in the table, regardless of this option, as it depends on the mesh that is used to derive all other measurements except thickness. If you specify an ?h.area file with -t, it will instead output incorrect results for thickness, as it will treat the given area file as if it were thickness, and not really changing the areas reported in the table.

Hope this helps!

All the best,

Anderson

Hi everybody,

I just want to make sure I'm using the correct the correct syntax for running mris_anatomical_stats for examining cortical area. Based on the QDec Group Analysis page, my I was running the following command to examine cortical thickness:

mris_anatomical_stats -l rh.test.label -t rh.thickness -b -f subject/stats/rh.test.stats subject rh

To adjust this for cortical area, would I just replace the rh.thickness above with rh.area, or remove it entirely?

Thanks in advance!

Joakim
