Just wondering, is there a webpage that I can read to understand why FreeSurfer 
chooses this exponent approach instead of z-value?

Also are 1.3, 2.3, 3.3, 4.3 two-sided, and 1, 2, 3, 4, one-sided? For example, 
when we specify configure overlay in Freeview?

Thanks!

It is not a z-value. It is -log10(p), so -log10(.01) = 2

Hi Daniel, there is no difference. Once you select the appropriate 
threshold, it does not matter whether it is a z-field, p-field, t-field, 
or -log10(p)-field because it gets binarized.
