Dear SPM experts,
When I normalize my anatomical and functional images (fmri) with the
EPI.nii, the inferior part of the temporal lobe is cut out. In addition,
when I compare this normalized anatomical image with the ch2 image from
MRIcron (or single_subject image found in SPM/canonical), I observe that the
inferior part of the brain is lengthened towards low.
My questions are
1) what is the reason of this shift ? Is it due to functional images that
have been normalized with EPI.nii ?
2) when we examine the functional and anatomical images with check reg in
SPM, they seem to be well superimposed, but we then wonder whether the
coordinates obtained from statistical analysis correspond to MNI
coordinates?
Thank you for any help!
