Hi Mohamed, sorry, I have not fully documented the procedure yet. I've 
put some notes below
doug


1. To start, run

gtmseg --s subject

This will take a couple of hours and produces some files needed for GTM 
PVC (which is used for GTM, MG, RBV).

2. You'd then register the PET to the anatomical with bbregister (with 
--t2 weighting). Make sure to save the output as an LTA (--lta). I 
usually use the mean TAC as the input. You can do this in parallel with #1.

3. You'd then run mri_gtmpvc, something like

mri_gtmpvc --i tac.nii.gz --psf PSF  --auto-mask PSF+2 .01 --seg 
gtmseg.mgz --reg reg.lta --default-seg-merge --mgx .01 --o gtmpvc.output 
--km-hb 11 12 13 50 51 52 --km-ref 8 47 --no-rescale

PSF is the point-spread FWHM of the scanner; reg.lta is the registration 
from #2.  --km-hb specifies the highbinding region for MRTM2. --km-ref 
specifies the reference region.  --mgx specifies to output a 
muller-gartner map (not necessary for GTM ROI analysis).

4. For the GTM (ROI) MRTM1 KM analysis, you would then run

  mri_glmfit --y km.hb.tac.nii.gz --mrtm1 km.ref.tac.dat time.dat --o 
mrtm1 --no-est-fwhm --nii.gz

where time.dat is a text file withe acquisition time of each time point 
in the tac.

5. For the MRTM2 analysis

set k2p = `cat mrtm1/k2prime.dat`
mri_glmfit --y km.hb.tac.nii.gz --mrtm2 km.ref.tac.dat time.dat $k2p --o 
mrtm1 --no-est-fwhm --nii.gz

If you want to run a voxel-wise analysis, then you can use the mgx
volume as input (--y). Probably you'll want to sample this to the
surface using mri_vol2surf and the registration file aux/anat2pet.lta,
then smooth on the surface
