Not sure what you are trying to do. Are you comparing the average thickness in premotor to that in primary motor? What would it mean to visualize that?

Dear FreeSurfer team,

I'm doing a structural analysis with around 20 subjects and I'm specifically interested in the areas premotor cortex and primary motor cortex. By matlab analysis I've found a very strong statistical significant difference in the cortical thickness when comparing these two areas with all subjects (data extracted from FreeSurfer recon-all pipeline). I would like to visualize these results on the surface of fsaverage, and I'm familiar with the FreeSurfer group analysis pipeline. So far I've simply made a OSGM group analysis and visualized these results on the fsaverage in a premade label of premotor cortex and primary motor cortex and correlated for multiple comparisons using your precomputed monte carlo simulation - but this doesn't make it.

Do you guys have a clever way to visualize these results in FreeSurfer? I have one group and would like to visualize the difference between two areas. I've thought about presenting each subject two times in the FSGD-file (primary motor cortex and premotor cortex), but this isn't possible and seems as a clumsy way to solve this problem.

Please let me know if my problem is incomprehensible!

Best, Silas
