Hi Doug, Thanks for the reply. I looked at Matthew Brett's transform, which I understand to be a non-linear transform between MNI and Talairach, but I was told that tksurfer's "Talairach" field is not accurate. Is this simply because Brett's transform is only one of many possible solutions to the problem, or is it because of something else? Or is my information out of date? If the Talairach field in tksurfer is accurate enough to report in a paper, then I'm happy to go with that.
