Hi Antonella,
If you are applying the morph to a mask file, then yes, the nearest neighbor interpolation shoudl be used.
The masking option that you ask about below depends on whether you want to use wmparc to guide your masking (option 1) or whether you want to do the masking based upon intensity values found in the fa image (option 2).

Dear Lilla, Many thanks for your reply and for your help. Regarding the way I resampled my fa data to the CVS space I was reading on the FSTutorial/Diffusion that if you wanted to resample a segmentation volume (such as wmparc or aseg) in CVS space, you would want to use the nearest neighbor (nearest) interpolation option.The fa mask was calculated using the wmparc2diff as you can see below so I thought because I am using the wmparc which isĀ a segmentation volume I should use for resampling the nearst interp. Please let me know if I am wrong. mri_mask $TUTORIAL_DIR/$subj/dtrecon/fa.nii \ $SUBJECTS_DIR/$subj/mri/wmparc2diff.mgz \ $TUTORIAL_DIR/$subj/dtrecon/fa-masked.mgz Is this the right way to calculateĀ my fa-masked or I should use all my fa data only: mri_mask $TUTORIAL_DIR/$subj/dtrecon/fa.nii \ $TUTORIAL_DIR/$subj/dtrecon/fa-masked.mgz Thank you very much!

We only suggest the nearest neigbour option for segmentation and parcellation files. --Lilla On Mon, 16 Jan 2012, Antonella Kis wrote: > Dear all, > > I am trying to convert my DTI image which was previous resampled to CVS space from an .mgz format to a .nii.gz format.

Do I need to use this option? Even if I am using or not I see my image is having different direction than the .mgz image.
