p.s. oh, and the .lta format is ascii so you can just look at it to see if it
is vox2vox or ras2ras

Subject: [Freesurfer] talairach.lta coordinate spaces
External Email - Use Caution
Hi list,
I'm trying to understand whether the talairach.lta transform is from the
image-axes RAS to talairach or the scanner-axes RAS to talairach. Basically, if
I rotate the imaging FOV and scan the same subject, should I expect that to
change talairach.lta or not? My confusion stems from the discrepancy between
what the scanner terms RAS coordinates (aligned to the gradient axes) vs. what
might be plausibly called RAS in the image coordinates (aligned to the FOV
axes).
The underlying goal here is to try to evaluate how gradient-axis-aligned
someone's head was when they were loaded in the scanner.
Thanks,
Dylan
