 I wouldn't advise this - you will miss most of the activation unless it 
 happens to be right next to where the surface runs adjacent to the structure

 no, that won't work. Vol2surf samples a volume to an existig surface
 and
 none of the subcortical structures will be anywere near the cortical
 surface. You would need to run mri_tessellate on each subcortical
 label
 that you want to generate a  surface for, but I'm still not sure what
 you
 are trying to do.
