Thank you, Timothy

I did the resampling with ANTs' WarpImageMultiTransform, as I thought the
software used for this didn't matter. I have now done the same with
wb_command as you suggested and the resulting ROIs are exactly the same.

I could not make FSL's applywarp work, so I cannot tell by now what would
come out from that. Anyway I'm not sure I understand why would it fail. Is
it something related to rounding coordinates or working directly in image
space?

Regards,
Jaime
