Folks:

It would be *really* great if there was a page somewhere (or just a file) giving some info on the various measures that are captured in the aseg and aparc files.

For each measure (in the table or the "comments" above the table):

-- Description of what it includes -- some are obvious from the name, others not.

-- Whether it's deprecated.

-- Whether FS V-whatever actually produces this value, or just zero. (Very useful, and probably not too much work? Plus I'd like to adapt this info so as to pull only the non-inert rows from the data file). (Or is there some other way to determine this?)

-- Some suggestions on what numbers need to be added to get popular subtotals.

I've just read through the last six months of freesurfer list traffic, and I see numerous questions along these lines... and replies with some clues here and there. Also references to papers, but these don't detail the nitty gritty of what FS V-something actually does.

Probably numerous users would get a lot of use out of having this info in one place.

Thanks,

Graham
