Hi Jon,

Who said we don't? It is possible to do partial volume correction to the
images that go into randomise. In fact, Doug Greve has recently published a
paper <https://dx.doi.org/10.1016%2Fj.neuroimage.2016.02.042> on this
topic, that revises and compares various methods. Most are compatible with
randomise.

All the best,

Anderson
