If you do multiple testings, e.g. on different components, yes. hth, andreas Am 09.04.2013 um 23:15 schrieb "Franklin, Crystal G" <[log in to unmask]>: > Thank you Andreas.

You get a spatial map of the average effect and, by using the time point entries (=subjects in your case) you can test for differences of the average effect across groups (i.e. ordered subjects) outside FSL (using R, matlab - whatever you fancy). Does that make sense? > Cheers, > Andreas >> "Franklin, Crystal G" <[log in to unmask]> hat am 9.

Now we are having trouble interpreting the results. What does it mean if we see a significant group difference in a component?

If you have "time series" data for each subject then you should use group-ICA and dual-regression; if you only have a single summary image per subject then you should concatenate all images into a 4D NIFTI image and run "single-session" (default) melodic. >>>> >>>> Steve. >>>> >>>> >>>> On 9 Apr 2013, at 14:22, "Franklin, Crystal G" < [log in to unmask]> wrote: >>>> >>>>> Dear FSL, >>>>> >>>>> I have a FDG PET study that contains 79 subjects that are either FH+ or FH-. The data has already been preprocessed and registered into standard space. I am now wanting to do an ICA analysis to get the components and then do group comparisons with these components. Is this possible and if so, how do I go about setting this analysis up. >>>>> >>>>> Thank you, >>>>> Crystal >>>> >>>> >>>> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- >>>> Stephen M.
