Good morning, Bruce.

Sounds good. Thank you very much.

Regards,

Sourav

Hi Sourav

that won't work - particularly if you are trying to crop in the a/s
dimension. Many brains might squeeze into 160 l/r but probably not all, and
certainly not with skull. And there won't be any consistent starting coord
as it will depend on where the head is in the FOV. The only way for it to
definitely work would be to downsample one dimension to 256/160=1.6mm. If
you skull strip you could get away with something higher res. Or  use fewer
than 70 images.

cheers
Bruce
