Hi,experts,

I am trying to get the total surface area of pial surface using the following command,but it seems the default surface for this command is white matter surface, is there any parameters i could change to get the information from pial surface ?

mris_anatomical_stats -l lh.cortex.label - f /freesurfer/subjects_1/stats/lh.cortext.stats subjects_1 lh

Thanks a lot
