Hi all,

Regarding Stephen's answer:  I thought it is necessary to concatenate the
LR/RL phase encoding directions together somehow or can I just treat every
run seperately? What I basically want is the timecourse from a voxel or a
region (from preprocessed data) which I can use for further analysis.

Regarding Matthew's answer: I'm afraid I'm not exactly sure what you mean
by cleaning or removing the mean image from the data. Mean centering?

I used the preprocessed datasets:



*subjectcode_3T_rfMRI_REST1_preproc.zip*
\MNINonLinear\Results\rfMRI_REST1_LR
\MNINonLinear\Results\rfMRI_REST1_RL

Is this the correct data or is it necessary to use some different datasets
for my specific purposes? (Normally I'd use the netmats datasets, but in
I'm especially interested in the amygdala which I'm trying to extract from
the Harvard-Oxford Atlas ROI).

Thanks for your answers!

David
