I'd like to extract a BOLD series for a given anatomical region. It seems like this should be possible with func2roi-sess (with the -anatlabel option) but it appears to need an analysis for some reason. I'm using continuous data, no event-related or block design paradigm, so I don't have an FS-FAST analysis. I just want the time series for a given ROI, so I don't see why I should need an analysis, but I can't figure out how to tell func2roi-sess not to use one. Perhaps I'm misunderstanding func2roi-sess or maybe there's a better function for me to use for this. What is the best way to extract the time series from a given ROI (e.g. rh.medialorbitofrontal) using FreeSurfer?

Never mind. I solved my own problem using mri_vol2roi. On Fri, Jun 5, 2009 at 2:29 PM, Alessandro D. Gagliardi < eklypse@psychology.rutgers.edu> wrote:
