What is your mri_segstats and mri_surfcluster cmds? The area computed from the triangles of the fsaverage subject are not representative of the average of the individual subjects that go into fsaverage. For this reason, we usually use the lh.area file inside of fsaverage to compute the area (this lh.area file is an average of the individual subjects). It may be that you are using both methods and so get different answers. dogu
