Hello there,
we had the same problem and our solution was to flip the images in
native space and then normalize them to a symetrical template (lest the
non-flipped images are preferred during spatial normalization). I will
send you the pdf off-list. Simply flipping the results will not be
optimal (even if you trick SPM into accepting the images) as the brain
is not symmetrical. This can also be done using unified segmentation, by
specifying symmetrical priors, and for us, this did the job rather nicely.
Hope this helps,
Marko
