Great question! You can certainly run Mindboggle on FreeSurfer output for earlier versions of FreeSurfer. In fact, we did this for part of the work described in the PLoS Computational Biology article:
"For this study we used FreeSurfer v5.1-derived labels and meshes, but the recently released FreeSurfer version 6 is recommended because it uses Mindboggle’s DKT-100 surface-based atlas (with the DKT31 labeling protocol) by default to generate labels on the cortical surfaces, and generates corresponding labeled cortical and non-cortical volumes (wmparc.mgz) [75 <http://journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol/article?id=10.1371/journal.pcbi.1005350#pcbi.1005350.ref075> ]." I am certain you can run a FreeSurfer command to update the cortical labels to be in accord with the DKT-31 labeling protocol ( http://journal.frontiersin.org/article/10.3389/fnins.2012.00171/full) and the new DKT-100 atlas used in FreeSurfer. I will leave it to others on this list who have greater FreeSurfer expertise than I to recommend the appropriate command.
