Hi Pedro

Sorry, right now the only multiple comparisons corrections implemented in lme 
are the original Benjamini and Hochberg (1995) FDR procedure (lme_mass_FDR) and 
a more recent and powerful two-stage FDR procedure (lme_mass_FDR2):

Benjamini, Y., Krieger, A.M., Yekutieli, D. (2006). Adaptive linear step-up 
procedures that control the false discovery rate. Biometrika, 93, 491-507.

In my experience, this procedure is as powerful to detect effects in neuroimage 
data as alternative corrections with strong control of the family-wise error 
rate (FWE).  However it would be great if we could use an implementation of any 
multiple comparisons correction with strong control of the FWE (MC, RFT, 
ect...) for lme (FDR procedures only provide weak control). The residual errors 
at each location required to compute an estimate of the image FWHM can be 
obtained from the lme output. But an actual FWHM estimate is not currently 
saved.
