Hi Lucette,

Are you saying that the label file saved by freeview can not be loaded by other tools in freesurfer? Can you post the complete commands and output that did not work?

Best, Ruopeng

Dear Ruopeng and colleagues,

I am interested in following same tracing protocol for the amygdala as in "Neuroimage. 2012 April 2; 60(2): 1226–1235: "A reliable protocol for the manual segmentation of the human amygdala and its subregions using ultra-high resolution MRI”

I would like as they did use freeview because it has some versatility and resolution that other programs do not have.

I have however one issue Once I have created my ROI in freeview it ends up being by default a .label file. I create my ROI using ROIs and edit ROI tools and simply save it. I have tried to use “mri_label2vol” to get my ROI file (e.g., right_amygdala.label) into a volume file from which I thought I could then compute stats using “mri_segstats” But it does not work, as it seems that the initial .label file does not have the current format? Or required info? My command line output that it cannot read my .label file

Thanks for your assistance Lucette
