Hi again,

the registration looks fine in tkregister2, but is apparently wrong in
fslview (and also mricron). See the attached files (as link from
http://vedlegg.uib.no/?id=399ad2cce1a3138f8eb4f6a06f4acfc4) showing
screenshots of fslview and tkregister2. How can this be explained, and how
can we visualize the correct orientation in fslview?
What does this misalignment influence any further processing with fnirt and
concatenation of the affine transformation fields?

This is our command we run for bbregister:

bbregister --s subj_505 --mov vol0001.nii.gz --reg register-test.dat
--init-fsl  --t2 --o test.nii.gz

where vol0001 is the first volume in the fmri sequence and is flipped to
align with LAS (as the highres).

Thank you for your kind help,

Erlend Hodneland

ean that it is in the wrong orientation? It should be in
the same orientation as the anatomical. How does the reg look in
tkregister2? Note that fslview can display volumes in odd orientations
even when the orientation is correct.
