Hi, HCP experts 

I have a question regarding transferring HCP border ROI file for surface-based 
tractography in FSL. What I did were (1) draw a border roi; (2) transfer the 
border ROI to a metric file; (3) transfer the metric file to a label file; (4) 
transfer the label file to a surface file for tractography. I used the 
following steps: 


============================================


echo "Step1: change borders to metric files..."
 
 /usr/local/workbench/bin_rh_linux64/wb_command -border-to-rois 
${targ_w_surface} ${datapath}/${1}/T1w/ROIs/${border}.border 
${datapath}/${1}/T1w/ROIs/${border}.func.nii


 echo "Step2: change metric to label files..."

 /usr/local/workbench/bin_rh_linux64/wb_command -metric-label-import 
${datapath}/${1}/T1w/ROIs/${border}.func.nii '' 
${datapath}/${1}/T1w/ROIs/${border}.label.gii

 echo "Step3: change label to surface files..."

 echo "${datapath}/${1}/T1w/ROIs/${border}.label.gii" > 
${datapath}/${1}/T1w/ROIs/labellist.txt

 label2surf -s ${targ_w_surface} -o 
${datapath}/${1}/T1w/ROIs/${border}.label.asc -l 
${datapath}/${1}/T1w/ROIs/labellist.txt


================================

When I checked the generated surface ROI using the command "surf2volume" in FSL 
by transforming it to a volume file, I find that my ROI turned to the *whole* 
white matter surface, instead of only occupying the ROI. I have successfully 
transformed label files generated via FreeSurfer to a surface file using the 
command 'label2surf' and checked the results using the command "surf2volume". 
They look reasonable (i.e., the results only occupy the ROI). 

I also checked the metric, label files in WB and they all look reasonable 
(i.e., having value of 'Label_1' and '1' in the label and metric files). 


So, I wonder whether other users had similar issues and would appreciate any 
information to fix the problem.

Many thanks!

Longchuan
