Anastasia, I'm not sure how I can give tracula the phase difference maps,
can you provide an example?
As a reminder, I've run a wrapper script around epidewarp which takes our
dicom images and converts them into a phase difference map (it is based on
the script that was authored by Doug Greve for the fBIRN consortium).
In the tutorial dmrirc example I see only the 'set b0mlist' and 'set
b0plist' options, and am unsure where I could give it the phase difference
map.
I've also tried converting the dicom magnitude and phase maps to nifti
format and inputting these into the dmrirc file but I am still getting an
error. (See attached log file).
Thanks,
Eileen.
