Hi Douglas,
Does the surface of the closest MRI time point mean the surface of the -long subject time point directory rather than cross-sectional subject time point directory ?
Best regards,
Matthieu
There is no such long process for PET. The idea is that you process the
MRI in a longitudinal way, then sample the PET data onto the surface of
the closest MRI time point. Then proceed in a way similar to the
thickness analysis
