Thank you - right as you sent your reply I was writing an apology because
I'd just seen that flag.

It's Friday evening here in the UK and it might be time to stop sending
emails for a little while!

So sorry! And thank you!

      Hi Kirstie

      you can pick the interpolation method with

      --interp <string>

      where string is one of:

      nearest
      trilinear
      sinc
      cubic


      cheers

            I'm sorry, I did wonder if my email wasn't clear as
            soon as I clicked send.

            I'm using mri_vol2surf and I've read the --help
            output and this page:
            https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/mri_vol2surf

            The help is very clear about which surface the
            volume is being sampled to
            etc, but I can't see a section that describes
            exactly how the values are
            interpolated (if they're interploated) onto the
            surface.

            The assumption that I was trying to clarify in my
            (too short) email was that
            the voxel through which the vertex passes is the
            value that is mapped to
            that vertex.

            Possible alternatives would be some sort of weighted
            sum of the neighboring
            voxels, perhaps, but I had assumed that if there
            were interpolations
            happening it would be mentioned in the help file?

            Does this make sense? I do apologise if I've missed
            an obvious reference
            that explains all this!

            Best wishes

            Kx

                  Hi Kirstie

                  I think you get to decide how you want the
            sampling done in
                  mri_vol2surf.

                        Thank you Bruce - that's excellent and
            works
                        perfectly.

                        Can I ask - when I sample from the new
            surface from
                        a volume is it the voxel
                        value in which the vertex lands that is
            assigned to
                        the vertex or is there
                        any interpolation across multiple voxels
            before
                        assigning the vertex a
                        value?

                        Thanks again for the help!

                              Hi Kirstie

                              you can do this with mris_expand.
            For example:

                              mris_expand -thickness lh.white
            0.5 lh.graymid

                              will generate a surface halfway
            between white
                        and pial. Using
                              that surface
                              to sample is probably a better
            method than
                        using profrac,
                              although I expect
                              the differences will be  small
            unless you have
                        very highres
                              data.

                              cheers
