Thank you for your quick answers! @Yasser. I am sorry, but with this new version, it is the same. The underlying image is the ouptut of native SPM5 segmentation (spm_segment), which as far as I am correct, is also used by ibaspm, right? No, the input is not skullstripped. @Marko > "an additional "cleanup" procedure that may be too aggressive on your data" > Yes, that is what I was looking for! I tried with different HMRF values (0, 0.3, 0.45), but this does not change a lot. @Steve The normalisation is perfect, i.e. it matches exactly the one from native SPM. I am sure that it must be something very simple I have so far overlooked, but what? ;-) Thank you so much for your help!
