Yes you do need the research key for that.
You need to be in research mode
After you download go to Research User CVs
And make the changes

Hi Iordanis,
Thanks for the suggestion but unfortunately the only option we get on the CV is "DTI on or
off". I suspect it is because this is a clinical machine and we don't have a "research key".
Do you, or anyone else, have any other ideas? Should I try resampling the data? If so, how
would you do it? With FLIRT?
Thanks in advance!
