In that case, you just need to mri_convert aparc+aseg.mgz aparc+aseg.nii

Hi Boris

the aparc*aseg.mgz files are probably want you want. They are the surface parcellations sampled into the volume. Of course you lose resolution when you sample a continuous surface into a discrete volume though.

Hello FreeSurfer group

How are you?

I have currently started working with FS and would like to visualize some of the volume results. I have no issue visualizing the .mgz volumes produced since I can use mri_convert to convert them to .nii format and then visualize them using my software. However, I'd like to know if there is a way to convert the resulting surface labels (e.g. my_output/surf/rh.white or my_output/surf/rh.pial) into .nii files that I can also visualize or combine them with a resulting .mgz file into a single .nii file that contains the information for both volumes and the surfaces. Ideally I'd like to know if there is a way to combine them into a single file via the terminal.

Please let me know if FS comes with a tool the allows for this process or if you know of any external tool.
