Dear Doug and Jorge, Thank you very much for your help. I found another message in the list (https://mail.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/pipermail//freesurfer/2013-November/034649.html) in which you suggested a way of using MC in mri_glmfit-sim by creating “fake files”, which would not be read by the script. In this case, only the simulation would be run, and not the full statistics. The command would be something like this: - mri_glmfit-sim --glmdir $SUBJECTS_DIR --sim mc-full 5 2 teste --sim-sign abs I created a “fake” mri_glmfit.log, fwhm.dat and mask.mgh files as suggested by the older post. This would be fine, I believe, if only sig.mgh is read by the script. However, I get this message after running the command: [server:Long-T0-T2-Posproc/Vertex/Sch] pedrogomesrosa% mri_glmfit-sim --glmdir $SUBJECTS_DIR --sim mc-full 5 2 teste --sim-sign abs if: Expression Syntax.
Is it possible to do what I am trying to do? Does the residual errors at each location included in the sig.mgh, and, if necessary, how to compute it into image FWHM? Regards, Pedro Rosa.
