Resting-State fMRI Data Analysis Toolkit (REST) is a convenient toolkit to calculate Functional Connectivity (FC), Regional Homogeneity (ReHo), Amplitude of Low-Frequency Fluctuation (ALFF), Fractional ALFF (fALFF), Gragner causality and perform statistical analysis. You also can use REST to view your data, perform Monte Carlo simulation similar to AlphaSim in AFNI, calculate your images, regress out covariates, extract ROI time courses, reslice images, and sort DICOM files. Download a MULTIMEDIA COURSE would be helpful for knowing more about how to use this software. Add REST's directory to MATLAB's path and enter "REST" in the command window of MATLAB to enjoy it.

New features of REST V1.6 release 110505:
1. REST-GCA: provides a method that could transform the residual-based F into normally distributed Z score. For more details, please see
http://www.restfmri.net/forum/REST-GCA. (ZANG Zhen-Xiang) 2. REST Image Calculator: Fixed an error when processing images of i10, i11.... and supporting keep "shift" key to select multiple groups or images. (DONG Zhang-Ye) 3. REST Slice Viewer: Fixed a bug in dispalying "only -" and a bug in dispaying unerlay with 2x2x2 voxel size. (DONG Zhang-Ye) 4. For defining ROIs, supporting keep "shift" key and select multiple mask files. From "Misc"->"Add multiple user-defined mask files". (DONG Zhang-Ye) 5. For extracting ROI signals, also support Multiple label values in a single mask file. 6. Fixed an error in the future MATLAB version in "[pathstr, name, ext, versn] = fileparts...".
New features of REST V1.5 release 101101:
1. Fixed a bug in rest_RegressOutCovariates_gui.m while processing multiple subjects with different covaribles in batch mode.
New features of REST V1.5 release 101025:
1. Module of Regional Homogeneity based on Coherence (Cohe-ReHo) has been added by LIU Dong-Qiang and DONG Zhang-Ye. For methodology, please see: Liu D, Yan C, Ren J, Yao L, Kiviniemi VJ and Zang Y (2010) Using coherence to measure regional homogeneity of resting-state fMRI signal. Front. Syst. Neurosci. 4:24. doi: 10.3389/fnsys.2010.00024.
2. In previous release of REST, removing covariates effects will also regress out linear trend. Now regressing out linear trend has been canceled in this step. Users can still regress out polynomial effects by using rest_regressOutCovariates.m in command line.
3. For rest_sliceviewer, fixed a bug of in displaying with MATLAB 2010 and support mouse wheel operation.
4. Fixed a bug in converting .nii files into NIfTI pairs (.img/.hdr).
5. Added new function of "corr(i1,i2,'spatial')" in REST Image Calculator.
6. Now can open a yoked structural image in displaying power spectrum.
7. Now can also pick up .nii files in GUI of reslice image.
