It depends on how graceful you want to be with resolving the overlap. One simple way would be the following:
1. Change the binary values in B.mgz to 2 and C.mgz to 3 (A.mgz is already 1). This can be done with mri_binarize 2. mri_concat A.mgz B.mgz C.mgz --max-index --o D.mgz D.mgz will have a value of 1 where A=1 but not B or C a value of 2 where B=1 but not C (regardless of A) a value of 3 where C=1 (regardless of A and B) This allows you to set some priority between A, B, and C 3. You can then re-binarize to get three new masks You can probably accomplish the same kind of thing with mri_mask as Bruce suggests. doug On 6/6/12 2:00 PM, Bruce Fischl wrote: > or use mri_mask.
