Hi - I’m guess that the reviewer intended you to correlate the axial/radial diffusivity against the same set of subject regressors as originally done with FA - not against each other?  So you can use tbss_non_FA (see wiki) for that?

Cheers.

I wanted to verify that this can be accomplished by using the AD data as an input and loading the RD data as an additional voxel-dependent EV and setting up the contrast as normal.
