I am analysing some
EPI data which appears in radiological convention when imported into SPM.
Because the SPM templates are in neurological convention, it seems important to
reorient these images during the pre-processing. By browsing the archives
for this mailing list, I have learned that reorientation can be achieved during
normalisation if the defaults.analyze.flip is changed from 1 to 0. I have
tested this, and it appears to work perfectly. Before renormalising my
data using this altered setting, I would greatly appreciate it if someone
can reassure me a) that this is the correct procedure, and b) that no
other steps need be taken, e.g.. the data can be analysed as usual after
flipping, and outputs will be neurological.

thanks,
Penny
