External Email - Use Caution        

I am trying to compare MWI(sampled on the  surface) between couple patients and 
controls using group analysis, therefore i need to have all inflated 
surface_on_same space (according to the wiki of group analysis you sent me, i 
should use mris_preproc to put my data on fsaverage).


Could you now tell me whether my mris_prepoc is right? and one other question i 
have asked in last email?


Thanks a lot,

Reza

It is not clear to me what you are trying to do. Do you want to do a 
morphometry study (ie, comparing thickness, area, and/or volume across 
subjects)? Or do you want to compare MWI (sampled on the  surface) across 
subjects?

Dear Doug,


I took the back slash away and ran

mris_preproc --target fsaverage --hemi lh --s FSP010 --out lh.FSP10.white.mgh 
--meas white


but i got error:

Reading curvature file /usr/local/freesurfer/subjects/FSP010/surf/lh.white
MRISreadBinaryCurvature: incompatible vertex number in file 
/usr/local/freesurfer/subjects/FSP010/surf/lh.white
ERROR: reading curvature file


Then i changed it to --meas : mris_preproc --target fsaverage --hemi lh --s 
FSP010 --out lh.FSP10.white.mgz --meas area


Then, as i need to register my the inflated cortex of myelin water image (MWI) 
to the surface_registered_on_fsaverage (could it be the output of command-line 
above?), should i use this output "lh.FSP10.white.mgz"  and the output of 
mri_vol2surf (resampling myelin water image to lh.white of my subject FSP10 
before registration to fsaverage) for mri_surf2surf (to resample the latter to 
the former, to have MWI to surface_fsaverage)



Looking forward to answers

Thanks

Reza

Thanks Tim,

Then if i would resample my data to fsaverage and surfaces are of main 
importance to my work, what should i use for -meas ?
