Hello, The --peakdist option should use the Euclidean distance to ensure a minimum distance between all local maxima. If you have a file where this option appears to be working incorrectly, please upload it to: http://www.fmrib.ox.ac.uk/cgi-bin/upload.cgi and let us know the 6-digit reference number and we will check what is happening. Many Regards Matthew > Hi, > > Does the peakdist option in cluster use the Euclidean distance to dertemine the distance between local maxima? when I use following command: > cluster -i data.nii.gz -t 2.58 --mm -n 10 --olmax lmax > in the file lmax: > cluster index Z x y z > 65 6.38 4 -84 32 > 65 6.09 42 -24 64 > 65 5.98 2 -80 34 > ... ... ... ... .. .... > the distance of the first two peak in is more than 10mm, > but when I used the command: cluster -i data.nii.gz -t 2.58 --mm -n 10 --olmax lmax1 --peakdisk=10 > in the file lmax1: > cluster index Z x y z > 65 6.38 4 -84 32 > 65 2.57 22 2 30 > ... ... ... ... .. .... > why did it retrun the peak: (42 -24 64) ? how does the option peakdist work?
