Hey Mr. Greve,

thank your very much again!
if i understand you right, the inside the console shown up values can’t be 
extracted into a separate file?

beside that, this values are of interest for me, so that i copied them to a 
text file.
        
        as you can see:         Getting Brain Volume Statistics
                        ...
                        SubCortGMVol  56306.000
                        SupraTentVol  963813.403 (960508.000) diff=3305.403 
pctdiff=0.343
                        SupraTentVolNotVent  940278.403 (936973.000) 
diff=3305.403 pctdiff=0.352
                        BrainSegVol  1109500.000 (1106935.000) diff=2565.000 
pctdiff=0.231
                        BrainSegVolNotVent  1082437.000 (1082065.403) 
diff=371.597 pctdiff=0.034
                        BrainSegVolNotVent  1082437.000
                        CerebellumVol 145310.000
                        VentChorVol   23535.000
                        3rd4th5thCSF   3528.000
                        CSFVol   963.000, 
                        OptChiasmVol   154.000
                        MaskVol 1526326.000

am i right that this CSFVol is the Volume of all ventricles not including
the extra cerebral CSF?
i tried to calculate the CSFVol reverse by calculating: VentChorVol - 
Choroidplexus(2*) = ..and it didn’t fit with the CSFVol?! why this?

        and what exactly is the VentChorVol and 3rd4th5thCSF for?

im a bit confused about all this lables and im sorry for asking you so much but 
i would really appreciate to solve this pity situation.

do you have a kind of an overview?

thank you in advance again,

ben luerweg
