Thank you for the response Doug!

The PET images I have are static images.  Six * 5 min frames which I have
summed together after realigning.

mri_gtmpvc --i summed.nii --psf 4 --auto-mask PSF+2 0.01 --seg gtmseg.mgz
--reg output.lta --default-seg-merge --mgx 0.01 --o gtmpvc.output

This command has worked and I just wanted to conform if it the correct way
to use it.
