Dear SPMs:
Perhaps the following questions have been discussed before. Yet, we will
apprecaite information to help us slove the problems:
1. How to normalize the individual whole brain anatomical image into
standard space using SPM96? It will be nice to render individual
statstics onto individual anatomy while maintaining the coordinate of
common space.
2. For individual study, e.g., presurgical mapping on a case of brain
tumor, a rationale will be to preserve the individual anatomy with
SPM(Z) cogistered or rendered on the anatomical image without
normalization. What is the best way to achieve this?
3. We have recently come across the situation that we had to adjust basis
function for different individual to obtain a good normalization result
even if the scanned volume (slices) were pretty much the same. Could any
one give us some information addressing this issue?
4. To run normalization correctly, should we choose mean image (mean*.img)
from
realignment as the image that the parameters "determined from"; or should we
choose
the coregistered mean (rmean*.img) for the task? We got different results
using different reference images. It turns out both good and bad result in
the normalized images for different individuals. Will appreciate some
comments on this.
