regional_thickness

compute regional cortical thickness statistics from per-vertex data

regional_thickness input_thickness.txt input_labels.txt output.txt

DESCRIPTION

regional_thickness computes regional cortical thickness statistics from per-vertex thickness measurements and a per-vertex label file. For each distinct label (brain region), the program computes summary statistics (such as mean thickness) from the thickness values of vertices belonging to that region.

The input_thickness.txt file contains one thickness value per vertex. The input_labels.txt file contains one integer label per vertex, identifying which brain region each vertex belongs to. The output file contains the computed regional statistics.

EXAMPLES
