No, it does not. All volumes are volumes in native anatomical space.

In the aseg.stats file there is a value for the whole brain volume.

oh, sorry, I do remember now that we took that out (I think we put it 
back in for the next release). The work-around is to run

mri_binarize --i brain.mgz --min 0.1 --count count.dat --o junk.mgh

You can delete junk.mgh. The file count.dat will have info about the 
number of voxels in the brain. It will have 4 numbers:
#voxels in brain, brain volume (mm3), total # voxels in volume, and 
brain volume as a percent of total volume in the 3d a field of view.

You'll have to run it on each subject. Easy to do with a script. You can 
then cat the data into one fine (they are just text files).

It is whole-brain minus cerebellum and brain stem. But the current 
release has a bug and should not be trusted. See the email I sent out 
last week or look at the Release Notes page on our wiki for how to 
download a patch and regenerate the results.
