Hi Jenni

Thanks a lot for your reply.

Following the descriptions  on  
FsTutorial/Visualization
 (https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/FsTutorial/Visualization)
the 'color scale bar' indicates
 area coded in blue == cortical thickness of Female < that of Male 
          (eg. 1mm <2mm),
 area coded in red  == cortical thickness of Female < that of Male
          (eg. 3mm of Female >2mm of Male).

Could you please tell me whether my understanding is correct or not?

Best wishes

Rhuang
