I am using 3dfractionize to downsample ROI masks drawn as fim datasets on high-res SPGR anatomical datasets to the resolution of my EPI datasets.
I am using the command line
3dfractionize -template EPIsequence+orig -prefix EPImask -input SPGRmask -preserve
where the template is the EPI timeseries, the input is the ROI mask drawn on the high-res SPGRs.
As I understood it, a dataset, thats already in the same grid format as the template should be left untouched by 3dfractionize, shouldn't it?
Because when repeating the command on the same dataset like
3dfractionize -template EPIsequence+orig -prefix EPImask2 -input EPImask -preserve
EPImask2 is a dilated version of EPImask.
Could you please explain?
Another question:
What's the command line equivalent to the plugin-routine DataSet Copy of a SPGR dataset into one fim dataset with one subbrick (and the same grid)?
(which I use for generating the ROI mask datasets from the SPGR datasets).
Thanks a lot!
