[Freesurfer] scale bar question

2013-11-22 Thread Cesar Echavarria

Hi all, I'm running a retinotopy analysis. I was wondering if there was a way for me to ignore the last x seconds/TRs of a given run. I want to ignore this bit of time because each run started and ended with a 'blank screen' period. I appreciate any tips you guys might give me. Cesar
