Hi Moran

1. Use the architectonic labels in the label dir (e.g. lh.BA4a.label, lh.BA4p.label, etc...)

2. Mean curvature is in 1/mm

3. You can always load a curv map as an overlay (file menu) then use different colormaps.

4. See 3 and change the overlay thresholds

what parameters do you mean?

cheers Bruce

Dear experts,

I'm a new user in freesurfer and mainly interest in the motor area cortical thickness. I have several question:

Using  tksurfer SubFolder lh inflated       Curvature---> lh.curv / lh.thickness / lh.volume ...

1. How can I detect the motor area location (i.e. translate the give

coordination's)? 2. What are the units of the .curv curvature pattern map? 3. All curvature maps are given in Red/Green colors, can it be changed? 4. How can I insert color bar? Using view>color scale bar insert fixed bar only (ranged -5-5; not Red/Greed colored)

I would like to have the full statistic report for given hemisphere;Using the command : mris_anatomical_stats -a SubFolder /label/lh.aparc.annot -b lh >>out.txt seems to provide only partial information, are there other parameters that should be added?

Thank you in advance for your help Moran
