Hi,

I'm trying to run a single subject surface analysis. I ran the script but it ended with this error message:

Done.
foreach hemi ( lh rh )
foreach run ( 01 )
3dVol2Surf -spec /usr/local/freesurfer/subjects/DM/SUMA/DM_lh.spec -sv DM_SurfVol_Alnd_Exp+orig -surf_A smoothwm -surf_B pial -f_index nodes -f_steps 10 -map_func ave -oob_value 0 -grid_parent pb02.DM.r01.volreg+tlrc -out_niml pb03.DM.lh.r01.surf.niml.dset
** ERROR: failed to open -sv dataset, DM_SurfVol_Alnd_Exp+orig

I suppose it's looking for the surface aligned with the experiment anatomy, is it right? Unfortunately I don't have any anatomical scan collected during the same session of my experiment... Is there a way in which I can run the analysis without using this anatomical scan?

Thanks
Francesca
