RE: using other freesurfer surface to project maps
Hi Alfonso,
Thank you for the reply
I just want a). I want to plot my analysis onto a specific surface on mine

Hi
Pedro,
The surf folder in CONN installation folder only contains reference fsaverage surfaces used by CONN mainly for display purposes. The sampling in these surfaces is the level8 fsaverage tesellation (with 163,842 vertices per hemisphere), while freesurfer sampling of each subject-specific surfaces is unconstrained (with an arbitrary / typically-different number of vertices per hemisphere). In any way, before going in much detail about these differences and how these files in CONN were created, just to double-check, could you please confirm whether what you would like to do is:
a) have CONN use different set of reference gray, white, semi-inflated, and inflated cortical surfaces in all CONN's 3d display functions (this does require modifying CONN's reference surf files)
or b) perform surface-level analyses or use surface-level ROIs in CONN, for example after running recon-all on your subjects you would like to import some freesurfer ROIs defined on each subject cortical surface, such an aparc+aseg.mgz file (this does not requires modifying any of CONN's reference surf files)
Thanks
Alfonso

Hi Alfonso,
I would like to substitute the \surf folder in the CONN installation with the outputs of Freesurfer (FS) on my specific data.
I have a set of ROIs masked using a specific mask in a specific volume. I used this volume to generate the Freesurfer /surf folder.
However, the FS output files are the same in CONN's /surf folder. For example, lh.pial.surf in CONN is merely lh.pial in the FS output. Also, cortex and mid surfaces are not present and the registration is not symmetric as in CONN, i.e., right and left surfaces do not have the same number of trianges. Thus, even if I trick CONN by renaming some files and reusing them for other types of surfaces I still get an error due to this difference between hemispheres.
I wonder how this CONN's \surf was created and how I can adapt my data to its format.
I am attaching my output
Thank you!
