Brain areas are not spheres.  I don’t think this is a good approach.  What is 
it that you are trying to do?

Peace,

Matt.

Subject: [HCP-Users] Transformation matrices for tractography

Dear HCP experts,

I am working with the HCP 900 release dataset.

I am extracting coordinates for several brain areas using each subject's 
midthickness surface eg. "100206].L.midthickness_MSMall.32k_fs_LR.surf.gii".

So the coordinates I get are in the MNI space.

I want to use these coordinates to create spheres which I will then use as 
start and end seeds for tractography using FSL's probtrackx2.

probtrackx2 always happens in native space. Given that my seeds will be in MNI 
space, I would have to give probtrackx2 transformation matrices so that seed 
transformation from MNI to diffusion space happens (and then tractography can 
run). Is there somewhere where I can find these matrices?

Thank you.

Best,
