Hi Shrishti, 1) by recon-all I meant recon-all in the freesurfer pipeline ( https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/recon-all ) to reconstruct the subject's cortical surfaces because if I got you right you have the maps on the surface (SN_like_cortical_lh.gz) and in the volume. If you only want to compare the maps in the volume you can skip this part I only compare the volume maps.
2) As far as I know with mri_vol2surf and tksurfer you can use a number of different formats including .nii (if not you can convert with mri_convert) 3) I'm not sure I understand your question. Make sure both of your volume maps are registered to the same MNI152 template. (Best is if you ask the people who gave you their maps to also give you the template. Then you can register your template to that template (e.g., using ANTS) and the transformation matrix you obtain to map your maps onto the other template.) If both volume maps are in the same space you can both open them with fslview on the template they have been registered to (fslview template.nii map1.nii map2.nii) and compare them visually.

I just want to clarify a couple small thing 1) By running recon-all on that subject do you mean reconstructing that subject's DICOM basically? 2) I notice that the extension you are using is .mgh so would I have to convert the volume maps (which is SN_like_cortical.nii) into mgh/mgz/gz as well? 3) Also, would you be able to elaborate a little on how to view the volumes on the MNI. I have used fslview and I think I know how to map our volume maps on the MNI152 volume space but I am not sure what would be the best way to use fslview to view it. Thanks once again!
