Thank you so much! Can I also learn whether running vertex-wise analysis 
without GLM analysis in Qdec is possible or not? As I said, I will compare a 
single patient with a group of healthy controls, so GLM would not work. What 
would you suggest for this? Is it possible to extract lGI values from surface 
data?

Thank you for your help,
Buse
