- YES, THEY HAVE ABSOLUTELY THE SAME FILENAME. I have even checked the warp files and they seems to be ok! this is strange because when I set FMRIB as the target, then tbss_non_FA works but not when I set the most typical subject in the study as the target. Any idea will be highly appreciated!

I got this error when the file names did not match. -Thanks On Tue, Apr 19, 2011 at 1:35 PM, kambiz rakhshan <[log in to unmask]> wrote: Thanks Mathew for the tips but actually the problem was before applying the warp to the MD images so it was at : f or f in `$FSLDIR/bin/imglob *_*` ; so i change it to for f in `$FSLDIR/bin/imglob *_FA.nii.gz` ; do but another problem occurs (see bellow). I don't have any idea of what's going one but the registration was perfect for FA.Do you have any suggestion?
