Hi Jason
you could try using mris_expand with a negative # of millimeters. At 4mm
you will lose a lot of the gyri and the procedure will probably fail, but
for smaller amounts it should work (and is what we've done in the past).
You can also use mris_distance_transform to compute the distance transform
for the wm and use negative distances to find the distance into the
interior
cheers
