Hi Graham,

yes, they are all in the same coordinate system. mri_ca_register takes a transform to initialize the nonlinear atlas alignment, but everything is in the same voxel space at the end of the day.

cheers,
Bruce

Folks:

I am (still!) trying to get traction on some aspects of the current FS coordinate system(s).

In the recon-all pipeline, am I right in assuming that from orig.mgz all the way through to aseg.mgz and then on to brain.mgz, wm.mgz and so on, that there's NO resampling to a new coordinate system (eg: the specific brain's data doesn't get resampled to rotate or talairach it)?

Ie: if you overlay, for example, wm.mgz's data onto orig.mgz, it'll align properly? (Ie: overlay the raw voxel data, unmolested by any clever viewer transforms...)

I *think* I'm right on this, but it's hard to be sure, because for example, mri_ca_normalize's docs say that it takes a gca transform file as input. But that *might* be so that mri_ca_normalize can resample some other standard file to match the specific brainmask.mgz file.

<scratching of head>
