Hello all,
We would like to analyise our repeated measures DTI data using an ANOVA. We are wondering if someone might have experience running AVOVA's on 3D data? Is there a particular tool used or did you use MATLAB for this type of analysis?
Thank you,
Sandra

Hi Sandra, it is usually just a matter of setting up a design matrix and contrast matrices to test what you are interested in then using any glm software. If you just have two time points, then you can just subtract them and do a one-sample group mean (design matrix a column of all ones; contrast matrix = [1]).

Dear Freesurfers,
I am ready to run the make_average_subject and I need to specify -xform for the talairach transform: talairach.lta , talairach.m3z or talairach.xfm. What is the difference between this and what should I use for the make_average_subject in order to prepare my data for the GLM analysis?
Thank you very much for your help. Antonella
Hi Antonella
talairach.lta and .xfm are linear transforms to a Talairach coordinate system. The .m3z is a nonlinear morph and will give you much higher anatomical resolution.

Hi Bruce,
Many thanks again for your help. So just to make sure that I understood corect: is better to use the talairach.m3z win my make_average_subject? I was reading that the talairach coordinate is based on talairach.xfm (unless changed with --xform) so your suggestion was to change it to talairach.m3z?
Many thanks. Antonella

it depends whether you want things in a coordinate system that is more anatomically accurate (.m3z) or more of a true "Talairach" one (talaraich.xfm)
