I think you can analyze the data in SPM as long as you don't do anything that makes assumptions about the spatial organization of the data (eg, spatial smoothing or clustering). doug On 02/26/2013 11:18 AM, Glen Lee wrote: > Hi Doug > Many thanks for clarification. > Yes, I was hoping to run GL

Hi Glen, I think there is some confusion here about what this conversion is doing and what you want it to do. This conversion simply changes the way the information is stored, but it is still surface data. SPM/MRIcron cannot display surface data even if it is in nifti format. It sounds like wha

How many vertices are on the surface? For nifti you have to reshape the size of the image so that it fits in the nifti format (requires each dim be less than 32k). If the number of vertices has a prime factor that is more than 32k, then you cannot convert it to nifti and use it in another softw

Nifti can only handle 32k elements in any dimension. This is a problem for surfaces when they have upwards of 100k vertices. For our average subject (fsaverage and derivatives), this problem is solved by reshaping the number of vertices to be 27307x6=163842. If you are working with fsaverage, t

Dear freesurfers I want to convert an .mgh image to NIfTY format, but even when the conversion using "mri_convert" seems to be ok, when I try to open the nii, an error message appears "image doesn't appear to be a valid 2D or 3D image", there is any other way to convert an mgh image to nii? I
