Thanks Doug! It worked! Joana 2011/10/17 Douglas N Greve gr...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu No, use the register.dat that you manually created as the input to bbregister with the --init-reg. You could move your register.dat to regidster.man.dat and set the output to be register.dat. doug Joana

Even though it is not ideal, manual adjustments can be useful. I would use manual registration in a small number of cases though. If most of your data requires it, I would try to play with the automatic registration parameters more. --Lilla On Sun, 16 Oct 2011, Joana Braga Pereira wrote:

Hi Joana, how big were the changes that you made? Sometimes the initialization routine won't get it close enough, then bbregister fails. Can you send the bbregister log file? doug Lilla Zollei wrote: Even though it is not ideal, manual adjustments can be useful. I would use manual

Those almost surely failed because of a bad initialization. You can usually tell this by looking at the first value in the mincost file. For these, the mincost is something like .9. The mincost will be a value bet 0 and 1.1, with 0 being perfect. Looks at your good subjects to get an idea of

Hi Doug, Thanks for the reply. I'm not sure i understand how to solve it. Are you suggesting to re-run bbregister using the --init-reg option and the register.dat files that were previously created for the badly-registered subjects? Joana 2011/10/17 Douglas N Greve gr...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu

Dear Lilla and Ed, Thanks a lot for your suggestions, they were really really helpful! I did the analyses as you suggested. After bbregister i checked the results with tkregister2 and saw that most subjects were well coregistered. However in a few of them my lowb images were out of place with

Dear Joana, Two things: 1. You should be very careful to use fslswapdim since it may result in an unintended left-right flipping. It's better to use fslreorient2std. 2. The tool dt-recon computes the coregistration of the lowb volume to the anatomical volume, see register.dat. You can then

Hi Joana, You should use the lowb volume as the moving volume for the registration and then apply the output registration matrix to your FA volume. You can also add the --o flag to your below command so that the resampled and registered volume gets written out at the end. You would want that
