Dear Bruce

I have:

[freesurfer@arvid surf]$ mris_euler_number rh.inflated
euler # = v-e+f = 2g-2: 138843 - 416523 + 277682 = 2 --> 0 holes
      F =2V-4:          277682 = 277686-4 (0)
      2E=3F:            833046 = 833046 (0)

total defect index = 0
[freesurfer@arvid surf]$ mris_euler_number rh.orig
euler # = v-e+f = 2g-2: 138843 - 416523 + 277682 = 2 --> 0 holes
      F =2V-4:          277682 = 277686-4 (0)
      2E=3F:            833046 = 833046 (0)

total defect index = 0
[freesurfer@arvid surf]$ mris_euler_number rh.pial
euler # = v-e+f = 2g-2: 138843 - 416523 + 277682 = 2 --> 0 holes
      F =2V-4:          277682 = 277686-4 (0)
      2E=3F:            833046 = 833046 (0)

total defect index = 0
[freesurfer@arvid surf]$ mris_euler_number rh.qsphere
euler # = v-e+f = 2g-2: 138942 - 416873 + 277916 = -15 --> 8 holes   OBS!!
      F =2V-4:          277916 != 277884-4 (-36)
      2E=3F:            833746 != 833748 (-2)

total defect index = 19
[freesurfer@arvid surf]$ mris_euler_number rh.white
euler # = v-e+f = 2g-2: 138843 - 416523 + 277682 = 2 --> 0 holes
      F =2V-4:          277682 = 277686-4 (0)
      2E=3F:            833046 = 833046 (0)

total defect index = 0

and:


[freesurfer@arvid surf]$ mris_convert -c thickness rh.white
rh.thickness.asc
MRISreadBinaryCurvature: incompatible vertex number in file ./rh.thickness

[freesurfer@arvid surf]$ head rh.thickness.asc
000 14.76140 -90.12495 -1.35007 0.00000
001 14.47272 -90.17822 -1.45615 0.00000
002 14.72146 -90.17825 -1.81132 0.00000
...

[freesurfer@arvid surf]$ tail rh.thickness.asc
 ...
138841 26.59108 24.28280 65.88673 0.00000
138842 25.87438 24.15891 64.43772 0.00000

Is rh.qsphere making the problem here?  How to solve?

Regards

Arvid
