Does anyone can explan me how negative voxels dimension was defined in
FSL? I uesed flirt to coreg 1*1*1 anta data with template brain (-2*2*2).
I am trying to have coregisterted image with mininum intensity change by
flirt. Should I choose dof is 9 without "skew" or any trick on
interpolation? Thanks! Lucy
