I did not load it with the registration file, but I just did and it does not change the results on freeview. I also checked the registration on tkregister and it seems very fine to me. > > also, what is the first value in anatorig2diff.bbr.dat.mincost? Here are all the values: 0.180949 209.653007 285.934948 29.944402 Maybe one point that I don't understand is why we have to apply a registration matrix if all the volumes (brainmask.mgz, lowb.nii.gz and the lesion mask) are already registered? Because if I am applying the invert of registration matrix anatorig2diff.bbr.dat to the lesion mask, then it will be in the native diffusion space, not the recons space anymore, isn't it? > > > > doug > > > > > > On 2/17/14 10:41 PM, Celine Louapre wrote: >> The lesion_vol2vol volume is still not correctly overlapping the DTI. >> >> The only command that didn't give me registration issue is mri_convert >> where I did not put any registration file but I was not completely happy >> with the interpolation resampling.
