Hi Heidi,
why do they have to be in a common space? You aren't comparing across
subjects, just within subject across method. Or are you trying to make maps
of accuracy? That will be hard to do unless you use our coordinate system
to do your segmentation, which I assume you do not. In any case,
mri_extract_label will take a transform such as the talairach.m3z, which
will map a label into our atlas coordinates.

Dear FreeSurfers,
We are comparing two methods to measure the volume of a subcortical structure
(our method and FreeSurfer).
We want to compare them spatially, by doing a voxel-based analyses.
We thought to isolate the structure from the aseg.mgh as well as our own
structure. Then we smoothed both data sets.
Now we are trying to convert the structure from our method to FreeSurfer
space (256 x 256).
Then, our plan was to put all the data of the structures of both methods all
the subjects together (4D) and to run mri_glmfit (comparing method one with
method two).
Does this seems logically?
But, we were wondering how we should deal with the registration. Because this
is in volume space, we cannot register it to the sphere.
Registration to the fsaverage may not be very accuracte.
Do you have any ideas how to solve this issue?
Thank you very much.
Best
Heidi Jacobs
