MNI normalization template

Submitted by David on

Hey,

I was wondering what the MNI template is that is being used for the normalization in the latest DPABI version? Is it the same template that is used in the DPABI viewer (= mni_icbm152_t1_tal_nlin_asym_09c)?

Hi,

If you are using DARTEL to normalize your images, then a group-specific template will be used (and finally affine transformed to MNI space).

In this case I was using the : "Normalize by using T1 image unified segmentation" option and I resliced a mask  from a college to the data. He said he used an asymmetric MNI template (http://www.bic.mni.mcgill.ca/ServicesAtlases/ICBM152NLin2009).

Hi David,

If you used T1 image unified segmentation. The T1 image is segmented into WM, GM, CSF using unified segmentation, which included normalization information. Then this information was applied to functional images.

In such a case, the a priori WM, GM, CSF tissue maps were used. T1 tempate is not used.
