Hi Anastasia,
  I'm attaching the graphic I arrived at with the command:

> freeview -tv <subjectID>/dlabel/diff/aparc+aseg.flt.nii.gz -v
<subjectID>/dmri/dtifit_FA.nii.gz

Here, I used the subject I send you (Sa69845.5) for the subjectID. I could
not detect spill over in these images, mostly because the frontal lobe is a
little cut off. Did you perhaps use a different viewer? I'm hoping to be
able to detect these mis-registrations better for myself in the future.
Thanks for all your help!

Sincerely,
Susie Kuo
