Hi Alireza,

Sorry for the delayed reply, but you happened to catch us at a workshop on human consciousness; I normally don't work on Saturday, but I'm headed to day 2 shortly.

A full reply would take more time than I have, but the short answer is that I don't think Caret does quite what you want -- yet. I think there is a spatial query under development in sumsdb, but it isn't quite ready for prime time yet. That said, you might check out the foci tutorial here:

STEREOTAXIC_FOCI
http://sumsdb.wustl.edu/sums/directory.do?id=6617378

Just scan the PDF; you'll be able to tell if it's useful.

Another source to try is here:

http://brainmap.org/

While this isn't flat map related, you might still find it useful.

One could write a script/program that would find the closest node on the SPM*/FLIRT/MRITOTAL PALS surface to any given MNI coordinate, and then lookup the paint attributes associated with that node, but I don't know of an existing utility that makes it easy.

Dear Caret experts,
I have mapped my functional data from SPM5 on flat brain using latest version of Caret and now I would like to check some specific activation(I expected to be among the activations which has been mapped on flat brain) like [x,y,Z](MNI coordinate).one bothering way would be click on each activation and see if the coordinate that comes up in voxel(anatomy) section is the same.but first of all do the [X,Y,Z] coordinate which is reported by voxel anatomy shows MNI coordinate?second,is there a better way of entering MNI coordinate and see the corresponding region to that? lets say entering[x,y,z] (MNI coordinate)and see where is that coordinate on the flat brain? Thanks,
Alireza
