The easiest thing is probably just to use matlab to load in the data
(MRIread.m) and pull out the vertices you need. Alternatively, you can
convert an mgh/mgz file to ascii with mri_convert --ascii or
--ascii+crsf and then do what you want with it.

External Email - Use Caution
Dear Sisters and Brothers in neuroscience
I am a huge fan but a very new user of the freesurfer, please treat me
as such when answering this email.
I have successfully performed anatomical and functional data analysis
using fmriprep, freesurfer and fsfast. I have all the files needed,
everything looks perfect. As a next step of my analysis I would like
to perform a correlation of Cortical thickness and the functional
activation in one of my contrasts (I would like to correlate the CT
with the z-scores). I would like to do that separately for each
subject and in ROIs (ideally, self-defined Rois, but if there is an
easy way to do it in anatomical ones I will be very happy as well).
What I need is for the program to take the z-score from each vertex in
an ROI and the value of cortical thickness for each vertex and do the
correlation on those values. I can also do the statistics in another
tool (R), so simply extracting those values for vertices in an ROIs
would be great.
Do you have any suggestions how to do that?
Best,
Maria Czarnecka
