The deformations utility should be able to take care of this. You'd set up a job using Utilities->Deformations, which has the following structure. Composition . Inverse . . Composition . . . Imported _sn.mat . . . . Parameter File [Your sn.mat file] . . . . Voxel sizes [NaN NaN NaN] . . . . Bounding box [NaN NaN NaN; NaN NaN NaN] . . Image to base inverse on [Your subject's image] Save as Apply to [Your MNI space mask image] Output destination [up to you] Interpolation Nearest neighbour Best regards, -John On 15 February 2012 22:14, Krisanne Litinas <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > Hello SPM community: > > I apologize if this question has been answered before and I am not seeing > it. > > I am trying to find the best way to warp a functional mask from standard MNI > to subject space.
