Hi Dr. Welsh and all,
Thanks for the very timely and helpful reply. The co-register and
write-only (= reslice only) works well for changing voxel size in the
already smoothed, normalized, realigned data . . . despite the fact that
I couldn't find a decent 4^3 voxel image of Cartman . . .
Best regards,
Brandall

You just need to create a fake

can then do "co-register", "write-only". SPM will ask
for an image
defining the space - choose the "fake" image that is at the
correct
resolution. The object to be written is the image of interest.
Note the fake image file/header file pair really just needs the
header
to be correct - the image can be of anything (the beach, Cartman, or
whatever, the actual image data is not used just the header).

Hi all,
Is there a way to change voxel size other than changing the default
in
the
normalization step? I am reanalyzing PET data in SPM99 for which,
in
some
cases, I have only the smoothed, normalized, realigned data.
If
normalization is the only way to change voxel size, would
re-normalizing
the already smoothed, normalized, realigned data be a reasonable way
to
proceed, using "very light" nonlinear
regularization? Any suggestions
would be very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Brandall
