Hi Doug, Thank you very much for your answers! Kindly I have one more question: At the end of DTI analysis using the tool "dt_recon" we will have " stats" file including the FA value for every segment and parcellate in the brain. Depending on this output can we use the term " DTI morphometry" to describe the analysis?

What is the difference between this file and the file "register.dat" ( which I can see it as an output of the command " bbregister" in the final analysis using the command "dt_recon") They hold the same basic registration information just in different formats. We are trying to move to the LTA as it is a much better format for these things. 2. How can I generate the file " register.lta"? Use lta_convert, something like lta_convert --inreg register.dat --outlta register.lta --src lowb.nii.gz --trg $SUBJECTS_DIR/$subject/mri/orig.mgz 3. Can I feed the file " register.dat" instead of the file " register.lta" into the command "mri_vol2vol " (in order to move the ''fa.nii" to anatomical space). If so which flag I should use instead of the flag "--lta" in the command mri_vol2vol? Yes, pass it with --reg flag.
