Hi Anne,

Within our parcellation system, the medial orbitofrontal cortex roughly corresponds to the ventro-medial frontal area. Though there is no explicit region of interest for the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex within our parcellation system per se, you can either measure it yourself (which may be slightly painful if you have a large number of subjects) or use the rostral middle frontal ROI, which encapsulates the DLPFC.

Hope this helps,

rahul

Will Freesurfer allow me to measure ventromedial and dorsolateral frontal lobe volumes?

Thanks,

Anne C. Bird, M.S.
