Dear Freesurfer experts,
I am reading the manuscript "Cortical Surface-Based Analysis II: Inflation, Flattening, and a Surface-Based Coordinate System" by Fischl, Sereno, and Dale (1999) where the estimation of sulcal depth is described on page 199, however from the description I am still unsure of the exact units of sulcal depth. Are the units for sulcal depth in mm or are they in arbitrary units?
Thanks in advance, Simon
Hi Simon
they are originally mm, but I believe we z-score normalize them so that the sulc file is 0 mean and unit variance.
