Hi Steve,
 
yes it does. And ztop gives you the uncorrected p-value for a given z-value, right? However, Armins quest is asking how to convert, for example, the maximal z-value of a feat analysis with maximum height (i.e. voxel) thresholding into the corresponding maximal corrected p-value.
(BTW, ztop [enter] returns: ztop <p> [-2] but shouldn't it read: ztop <z> [-2]?). 
Cheers-
Andreas

Hi - actually, I think that the latest version of FSL has both ztop and
ptoz in it.

Cheers.
