External Email - Use Caution        

Thanks Doug, 

The script works well for projfrac-avg. but the problem is: when i use 
mris_preproc to assemble my MWIs and put them on fsaverage, as .fsgd file is 
only the order of my controls and subjects and i would have the inflated cortex 
of MWI on fsaverage, then anyway i have to specify my volume and registration 
files (tkregister2 output). Then there’s an error: i shouldn’t use both -fsgd 
and - iv together. Then i decided not to use fsgd file for mris_preproc and 
only using that for mri_glmfit. In mris_preproc, i write all “-iv volumes and 
registration files” in the same order as in fsgd file but i don’t write -fsgd 
argument. Is this way correct?


Thanks,
Reza
