Hi Douglas, Well, I usually use aparcstats2table with -m thickness, but what I get is the thickness for all those 34 hemisphere regions, but not that measure of mean thickness for the hemisphere. Could I be missing something?

This gives you a measure of mean thickness for the hemisphere as well. do8ug 2012/10/30 Daniel Ferreira <dani...@ull.es> > Please, is there any automatic way to extract this "Mean Thickness" values > for lh and rh for a big group of subjects?
