Hi Elisa

if you only use --s fsaverage, then mri_surf2surf assumes you are mapping within subject. If you want to map from one subject to another you need to use --srcsubject sub01 --trgsubject fsaverage

And yes, if you get that working I think fscalc should do the trick (or it would be easy to do in matlab).

Dear experts,

I would like to show the across-subject overlap of voxels by creating a map 
with color coding
indicating the number of subjects activating corresponding voxels.
For each subject I have run the first level model in spss and saved the 1000 
most activated voxels
for a given contrast as an roi (binary file).
Now with freesurfer I am trying to :
1) display the saved roi on the subject's surface (which has been obtained with 
recon all) - this
step worked
2) align each subject's surface to fsaverage - this step gave me the problem
3) add all subjects together and create the map showing how many subjects 
activated each location

To do so I have done the following:

1) this first step worked fine and I could display the roi on my subject's 
surface
mri_vol2surf --mov ${DATA_DIR}/sub01/vois/1000vox_IPS.nii \
    --reg ${DATA_DIR}/sub01/fmri/register.dat \
    --hemi rh \
    --o ${DATA_DIR}/sub01/probmap/testIPS.rh.mgh \
    --projfrac ${thisprojfrac}

2) this step crashed
mri_surf2surf --hemi rh --s fsaverage --fwhm 3 --cortex \
    --sval ${DATA_DIR}/sub01/probmap/testIPS.rh.mgh --tval 
${DATA_DIR}/sub01/probmap/testIPSfs.mgh

The error is:
Loading source data
ERROR: dimension inconsistency in source data
       Number of surface vertices = 163842
       Number of value vertices = 133030

Do you have any idea why?

3)Then I was planning to use fscalc and add all subjects together, is this 
correct?

If there is another/easier way to do the same thing, please let me know
Thanks in advance for your help,
Best
Elisa
