Hi-According to my experience, it is easy to use the MNI coordinates which is wrong. You should use the FSL coordinates. Also take care FSL coordinates are different in 1mm and 2mm space.
Good luck.

Hi,

I agree with Wolf that it may well be a registration issue, with images in the wrong spaces. It would be helpful if you could post the exact commands that you were running.

All the best,

Hi,

Maybe this is a problem with the transformation into the individual
subject brain space? Otherwise it might be a good idea to mask the
spherical ROI with a brain mask to ensure that it is not exceeding the
brain.

good luck,
wolf
