Hi,

I posted this before on 4 July and recently
on 24 August.

We are experiencing serious problems with
TBSS. A close inspection of the 4D stack
all_FA.nii.gz in the stats folder revealed
that more than 80 % (!!!!) of the FA maps
were badly registered to the default FA
template FMRIB58_FA_1mm (we used the -T
option in tbss_2_reg).
It turned out that these problems got
resolved by flipping the y coordinate of
the offending FA maps beforehand (using
fslswapdim), although these were correctly
oriented (as shown by fslview).
Our conclusion is that by some unknown
reason the registration tool fsl_reg
spontaneously introduces a y flip
of the data in the majority of the cases.

These problems persisted in three different
projects, two of which based on a Siemens
MRI scanner and one based on a Philips
scanner.

We used FSL version 4.1.4.
