Subject: Re: [FSL] Extracting FA from fdt_paths from classification targets

Hi - yes the only way to do that is to re-run tractography to each ROI separately. Sorry..

Saad.

We are interested in computing the FA along the tracts from the seed mask(sm) to target ROI(tROI) 1 , sm to tROI 2 until sm to ROI x. We understand that the fdt_paths file has the summed probability in each voxel and seeds_to_target_{x} file doesnot have the path information. Please correct me if I am wrong in my interpretation. Is there a way in FSL to extract only the paths from sm to tROI 1 and use this as a mask to compute FA along this tract? or the only way left is to track again from  sm to each tROI1 which is quite demanding in time?
