Dear Bruce,
I am trying to 'paint' onto the pial (subject7) 'average' but the activity seems to be spread everywhere. Is there any 'do and donts' with this type of procedure compared to the normal methodology of painting onto the subjects volume? Thankyou and best regards, Arshad *********************************************************/ Dr. Arshad Zaman Magnetic Resonance & Image Analysis Research Centre University of Liverpool Liverpool L69 3BX Tel + 44 (0) 151 794 5645 Fax + 44 (0) 151 794 5635 [EMAIL PROTECTED] *********************************************************/ On Thu, 20 Dec 2001, Bruce Fischl wrote: >Hi Arshad, > >I've put a gzipped tar file containing 3 different average subjects named >average5, average6 and average7.
