I would recommend using the volume space initially until you can get more surfaces to create your group surface. The one issue with the 112RM_SL is that there is no EPI template.

Hi Doug, the issue is that the 112RM atlas is only available as a volume; also, I do not have a surface for one of my subjects. I could either make a surface from the atlas volume and align to that surface for the group analysis, or align the data to the atlas in volume space (if possible) and perform the group analysis in volume space. What would you recommend? Thanks, Caspar

If you can create an average subject and register your individual surfaces to that subject, then it can be done. By default, recon-all will register to the human atlas to create ?h.sphere.reg doug

Hi Doug, thank you very much. One more question: From the documentation, I wasn't really sure whether it would also be possible to do the analysis of the functional data in a common volume space (not MNI, as it is NHP data). Thanks again, Caspar

Hi Caspar, with 5.1 you would not use any of those programs (ie, func2sph, isxavg-re-sess, or isxavg-fe-sess). If you want to use FSFAST, then see the tutorial for getting started. You'll need to set up the directory structure properly, then run preproc-sess, mkanalysis-sess, and selxavg3-sess. For the group analysis you'll run isxconcat-sess followed by mri_glmfit and mri_glmfit-sim. If you don't have anatomicals for all subjects and you just want to use the average subject, then put the average subject into the subjectname file when you set up the directory structure. doug On 02/12/2013 07:55 AM, Caspar M.
