AFNI Message Board

Dear AFNI users-

We are very pleased to announce that the new AFNI Message Board framework is up! Please join us at:

https://discuss.afni.nimh.nih.gov

Existing user accounts have been migrated, so returning users can login by requesting a password reset. New users can create accounts, as well, through a standard account creation process. Please note that these setup emails might initially go to spam folders (esp. for NIH users!), so please check those locations in the beginning.

The current Message Board discussion threads have been migrated to the new framework. The current Message Board will remain visible, but read-only, for a little while.

Sincerely, AFNI HQ

Hi Dan,
Thanks for the quick response! Fortunately I have an old dataset in both PAR/REC and nii formats.
I did 3dPAR2AFNI -n on the a subject's .PAR file to generate my own nii file and then compared it with the nii file obtained from the technician. Below is the command and the differences. However, I still cannot tell whether the nii file from the technician was time-slice-corrected or her method of reconstruction was different in an inconsequential way. Since the new dataset is only available in .nii format, it will be essential to know whether it is time-corrected.
Thanks a lot for your help!
Best,
Gaurav
