Dear All,

I've been thinking about the issue of modulation (non-linear versus
affine+nonlinear) and it makes sense to only use the non-linear component
alone. However, in DARTEL, flow fields are used and you it seems that SPM
only allows you to warp by the determinant of the total.

Could one "remove" the affine modulation effects by using the affine
component of the transform from the segmentation procedure (assuming the end
result is in MNI space) that same way its removed in VBM toolbox OR does the
"affine" portion change when DARTEL is used? If so, is there a way to
extract it?
