Hi Mark, Just wanted to clarify. Would **flirt -ref MNI_TEMPLATE -in ROI_T1 -out OUTPUT -init T1_2_STANDARD -applyxfm** warp the ROI_T1 to MNI space? Also, if i want to warp MNI_Template-based ROIs back to subject's functional data, would the following command **flirt -ref example_func -in MNI_Template-based_ROI -out OUTPUT -init standard2example_func.mat -applyxfm** appropriate??
