See my previous reply as to my guess what the problem is and how to show us that.

I did the Caret Operation process for the downloaded data from NAMIC again. Then I found a typing error of file extension in the process. Correcting it, I could finally obtain the same figure as the Fig. 3 (Glasser et al. 2011). I'm very sorry for my careless mistake. myelin capture (file name: downloadeddata_myelin) thickness capture (file name: downloadeddata_thickness) But there still is a problem. When I analyzed the data that were taken in our MRI scanner in the same manner, the resultant MyelinMapping.metric files contain only the number, zero. (while thickness.metric contains plausible values) myelin capture (file name: mydata_myelin) thickness capture (file name: mydata_thickness) I compared all the resultant images in the process, i.e., T1w, OrigT2w, OrigT2w_conform_RAS, T2w_conform_RAS2T1wbb... Only one difference that I found is the direction of T1w, T2w images in FSLview. T1w FSLview / NAMIC (file name: downloadeddata_originalT1w) T2w FSLview / NAMIC (file name: downloadeddata_T2w) T1w FSLview / our data (file name: mydata_originalT1w) T2w FSLview / our data (file name: mydata_T2w) I wonder if the phase/frequency encoding caused the difference. Is there any other point I have to check or change? Sincerely. Yuichiro Shimizu 2012/11/13 Matt Glasser <m...@ma-tea.com> > I wonder if your sform has obliques in it.
