What kind of resolution are we talking about?  The resolution parameters 
control the greyordinates space and the final volume space.

Peace,

Matt.

Subject: Re: [HCP-Users] fMRISurface Pipeline FinalfMRIResolution Variable

I believe the pipelines generally expect isotropic resolution, yes.  I don't 
think there is currently a way to use that variable to represent a 
non-isotropic resolution.

However, there may be few (or no) steps that actually interpret that variable 
as a number and generate a new volume space using it, and instead it mostly 
just uses that string to look in the global/templates folder for matching 
filenames - if they happen to be non-isotropic, it would probably just use them.

Finally, though, the FinalfMRIResolution probably needs to match the CIFTI 
grayordinates space being used, and if you want to compare to HCP data, you 
need to eventually wind up in the 91282 grayordinates space, which specifies 
2mm isotropic voxels in MNI space.  You might as well do that upsampling early 
rather than late, so that you don't need to generate new pipeline templates.

HCP users,

I did some searching on the list and could not find an answer to my question, I 
apologize if I missed it. I am attempting to use the HCP preprocessing 
pipelines to processing resting state data which was acquired with a lower 
resolution than HCP.

I notice that the FinalfMRIResolution variable expects one number as input. I 
have two questions about this.

1. Is this in reference to one particular resolution direction (X,Y,Z), if so 
which one?
2. If the pipeline expects an isotropic acquisition, how does one enter in an 
anistropic acquisition?

Thanks!
