Krish,
perhaps I am missing something.
How is it that you started with a negative voxel size?
By definition does it not have to be positive?

Hi Jason,
Thanks for your reply.
My point was that I had a registered image with -2,2,2, which I am happy
with. Its just that when this image was run through Flirt the resulting
images had voxel dimensions of +2,2,2, which seems inconsistent.
All the best,
Krish
