Dear Paul, I want to find out DMN in single subject rsfMRI. I have done analysi by using melodic and I got all necessary out put files including "melodic_IC_hr.nii.gz" file. There are 29 volumes of images are present in the file which shows activities in different regions. By using WFU_PickAtlas I have created a single mask image which includes multiple rois (DMN). By using fslmaths command I have created threshold mask from the mask created earlier. In fsl view it appears fine. Further I want to know how to apply this mask so that I will get only DMN. (Just want to see dmn in single subject rsfMRI).
