Hi,

I'm trying to understand the conversion from RAS (freesurfer surface
coordinate) to volume space (x, y, and z.. According to Graham Wideman
documentation here
http://www.grahamwideman.com/gw/brain/fs/coords/fscoords.htm (if it is not
outdated), Right is negative x, *Anterior is positive z*, and *Superior is
positive y*.

Just to double check, usign mri_info on a sample T1.mgz in one subject I
get this ras to voxel transform:

-1   0    0   126.944
 0   0   -1   135.16
 0   1    0   110.6
 0   0    0    1

Assuming we have correctly set the (0, 0, 0), and we can extract R A and S
(respectively) coordinates using C++ or Python code it means: Right is
negative x, *Anterior is negative z*, and *Superior is positive y*
(conflicting coordinates are in vold). Am I missing anything here, or
coordinate systems have changed from the probably outdated documentation?
Thanks in advance for any input on this rather confusing point.

All the best,
Arman
