Re: [Freesurfer] Extract vertex-wise cortical thickness, surface area and lgi values in ascii files?

2014-04-22 Thread Douglas N Greve
Hi Sabin, I have not been able to definitively track down the source of 
the negative area, but I have verified a couple of things. There is only 
negative area in a couple of vertices and they are in the medial wall. 
Our current development version does not result in negative area when I 
run it on your data, so what ever is happening has been fixed. In 
general, the area from the current development version is very close to 
that of what you have, so I think the negative area can be ignored.

 Hi all,
 I ran mri_surf2surf and then mris_convert to get vertexwise thickness

 negative values of surface area for few subjects. Should not surface 
 area values be positive only?

  mris_convert can convert binary curvature format files to ascii

  this will give you a 5 column ascii file in the format

Hi Sabin

mris_convert can convert binary curvature format files to ascii ones if 
the output file has the extension asc. Something like:

mris_convert -c lh.thickness lh.orig lh.thickness.asc

this will give you a 5 column ascii file in the format
vertex index x y z thickness
