Hi Tim,

can you tell us what form the data that you started with was in? Something is wrong with the direction cosines as tkmedit is displaying the brain upside-down (and it thinks that sagittal is horizontal).

cheers, Bruce

I have seen that it might be caused by the direction cosines in the input file were all wrong (coronal, saggital, horizontal wrong). so I checked the nu.mgz, and it displays

different from the bert subject, if this is the reason , how can i correct it. thanks tim
