Hi Ran
I had forgotten that there was a bug in the seed-to-target mode in FSL500 and FSL501.
You need to download the current version if you want to use seed-to-target.  Sorry about that.

Cheers
Saad

Both of "seeds_to_targets.nii.gz" have the large values, one looks like a spot and one looks like occupying full of whole background. I used this command for case2, similar to the case1 except for the different seed, target  and exclusion masks.

When I loaded the "seeds_to_targets.nii" file, I found some values in it are more than 5000, even reaching a value like 4488952, it's so large. Is it right? Is there a possibility that the value also includes the number of streamlines from other seed voxels passing through this seed voxel? How could I get this voxel's real streamline number because I wanna know the total connection number.
