Dear expert,


I am working on a resting state fMRI pipeline. I have performed several
preprocessing steps (e.g. trimming, despiking, etc.) and now I want to get
performed fsl_glm and regress out nuisance regressors (WM, CSF signal, and
motion).


In order to do that I ve run the following command


fsl_glm -i filtered_func_data.nii.gz -d design_with_nuisance.mat
—out_res=filtered_func_data_new.nii.gz


The filtered_func_data_new.nii.gz are the residuals of the model that has
these variables, hence will be free of these nuisance effects.


As for the design_with_nuisance.mat I’ve merged together the .par out from
mcflirt (mcflirt -in func.nii.gz -mats -plots -meanvol) with the CSF.txt
and WM.txt timeseries.

So the final mat files has 8 columns (6 for the motion parameters and 2 for
CSF and WM).


However the final filtered_func_data_new.nii.gz is really weird and far
away to be a cleaned rsfmri. I was wondering whether if I am doing
something wrong…


As I was wondering how can I include the confound.txt output of
fsl_motion_outliers (fsl_motion_outliers -i
rsFmri_trimmed_despike_mcf_tshift.nii.gz  -o confound.txt --fd
--thresh=0.25 -p fd_plot -v > outlier_output.txt)??


Thanks for your help


Best


Dave
