RE: strategy to analyse surface-based data

[color=#000000]Hello[i],[/i][/color]
[color=#000000][i] [/i][/color]I just came across this old post below when I was searching through the forum.  I would like to do something very similar.  Does anyone have any hints as to how to take a significant cluster from a FreeSurfer surface-based analysis and use the cluster as an ROI in the Conn Toolbox for functional connectivity analyses?

Thank you,
Chelsea

I'm a new user of Conn and need some advice from pros on how to properly setup a surface-based analysis.

So far I've conducted a surface-based analysis with FreeSurfer, where I got a lot of mc-corrected clusters in a simple group comparison approach.
(I've used 'make_average_subject' to generate a specific analysis space for stats instead of fsaverage since I have a special population)

I'd like to use these significant mc-corrected clusters to start a seed-based analysis using CONN and the corresponding resting state data in order bring structural and functional findings together.

What would be the optimal strategy to start such an analysis?

Thank you very much for your help

Best,
