Dear SPM experts,
I would like to get your opinion about another VBM-related issue. As far
as I understood, there is no agreement in this field about whether
cerebellar results are reliable and, therefore, worth being reported or
not, due to incomplete coverage (see Marko Wilke et al, Psychiatry Res
2004, "Cerebellar regions of interests were discarded due to concerns of
possibly incomplete coverage in some subjects") or bad segmentation (I
seem to remember retrieving a paper where the Authors cut cerebellum off
the MRI anatomical images even before the preprocessing). Whereas, several
papers report and discuss also cerebellar findings. I would deeply
appreciate your opinion about this issue. Thank you very much in advance
for any help and assistance you are going to provide me with.
Best regards,
Nicola Pannacciulli
