Hi again Yes, test.nii is the functional data registered to the anatomy. The following files have now been uploaded to your filedrop and can be downloaded by the email account "gr...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu"
1. vol0001.nii.gz : functional input 2. orig.mgz : anatomical target 3. register-test.dat : Output Freesurfer registration file 4. test.nii : Output functional data registered to anatomy Thank you for helping us, Erlend And the functional is test.nii.gz? If so, can you upload vol0001.nii.gz, register-test.dat, test.nii.gz, and orig.mgz to our file drop? doug On 04/25/2012 07:49 AM, Erlend Hodneland wrote: > Both the fmri data registered to orig is mismatched, and also the original > raw fmri data are mismatched with orig, > see the link here showing our raw data (fmri, orig and 152MNI) shown in > fslview > > http://vedlegg.uib.no/?id=297a1242fa82b4b7565b470806254c5a > > > It is orig.nii converted from orig.mgz that we show yes. > > Erlend > > > What images are mismatched?
