Thanks! so this is the command I've used: mri_aparc2aseg --annot freeSurfer_lobes --s P2 --o freeSurfer_Results/P2/labels/freeSurfer_lobes.nii.gz
a couple of question I have now: 1. what lables (numbers) correspond to the 5 main lobes? looking at the "FreeSurferColorLUT.txt", I'm assuming the lables I'm interested in are in the range of 1000-1035 (left) and 2000-2035 (right), is this correct? should I now manually add the relevant sections to get the 5 lobes?! or is there an automated way to do this?! 2. also, with "mri_label2vol" I was using the registration flags to move the labels into the native subject space, but this way (using mri_aparc2aseg) I get the labels in the freeSurfer space! are there options to move the lables? or should I do it as a separate step? if so, could you please tell me which command I should use? sorry for bugging you with so many questions! -M On 11/21/2013 01:42 PM, Douglas N Greve wrote: > use mri_aparc2aseg instead of label2vol.
