I see. Yes, a bunch of those are on our to-do list for segmentation but we don't have anything distributable at the moment. You are probably better off running some other nonlinear warping like ANTS or VoxelMorph to propagate the labels.

Hi Bruce,
I'm looking at diencephalic and midbrain structures and their various
subdivisions for application to tractography.  I used the thalamic nuclei
segmentation feature in the development version of FreeSurfer to obtain
labeling of individual thalamic nuclei that is run in addition to aseg, which
has worked out great.  However, for other deep brain structures such as the
subthalamic or pontine nuclei (e.g. pedunculopontine), to my knowledge, aseg
does not parcellate these out; however, they are available MNI space. 
FreeSurfer gives an excellent registration of labeled atlas structures in
patients with big ventricles, which I've had difficulty with using other
registration tools.  I was wondering if there was a way that I could bring
some of these labeled nuclei in MNI space into the patient's T1 space using
FreeSurfer.

Thanks,

Vinny

      Hi Vinny

      why do you need to brain structures from MNI space? Isn't the
      aseg
      sufficient? Or are there structures that are not in the aseg?

      cheers
