Hi - I still have not been able to apply the field map correction within tracula. Tracula does not appear to recognize the format of my field maps in either dicom or nifti formats. However, as a work around I first did the field map correction outside tracula (using our wrapper script for epidewarp). Next I used this field map corrected image as the input diffusion image for tracula and set dob0 = 0 in my dmrirc file (so as to skip tracula's field map correction). This appears to be working.
