Sorry for not specifying. Yes, we are looking at difference in volume
between the two groups using DODS. What is the most statistically sound...
raw values, demeaning across the entire sample, or demeaning with groups
separately? FYI, I exported the ICV values to SAS and there is a
significant different between the two groups for ICV.
