Hi Tanja, you should use DODS and test for a difference between the age slopes of the groups (ie, an interaction between group and age). If there are no significant interactions, you should then use DOSS to test for the difference between thicknesses. doug Tetiana Dadakova wrote: Dear all,

You can use bbregister to compute the transformation for each run based on the middle time point of that run (and assuming you've motion corrected the run), then use mri_vol2surf to resample any data set aligned with the middle time point to the subject's surface or the fsaverage surface. You

It was probably the initialization that failed. To test this, run fslregister (very similar command line to bbregister). If that does not look good, then it is an init problem. If these were acquired in the same session, then you can try using --init-header. If you have spm installed, you can
