Dear Doug,
I was wondering why the flag --prune is recommended (petsurfer website) when creating a stacked pet file and during surface-smoothing. If I understood correctly, this would set all vertices that are 0 in at least one subject to 0 ("set vox to 0 unless all frames are non-zero")? In my non-pvc data, it seems as though a lot of the surface-projected values are 0. Hence, when I perform a surface-based regression between PET and a regressor and I use the --prune flag during mri_concat, I don't get any results.
Thank you! best regards Julie
