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 Lucy,

The problem here is that when you convert to talairach
space, the resolution difference (from ~4 mm^3 to 1 mm^3)
increases the size of your dataset by a factor of 64. In
such a case, each sub-brick ends up being over 9 Megabytes.
So 840 time points is going to require almost 8 Gigabytes
of disk space, just for a single BRIK file.

In most cases, such a dataset will be too large for your
operating system. So with any software, it is still not
an option (until we can handle it with the 64-bit operating
systems).

One question though, why are you mapping your EPI data to
the +tlrc view? Perhaps is would be more convenient to
just map your statistical data (the post-3dDecovolve data)
to the +tlrc view.

The other option would be to use something like "-dxyz 4"
in your adwarp command. But then your resulting dataset
will match nether the +tlrc grid nor the +orig grid (most
likely).

It would probably be best to run 3dDeconvolve first, then
possibly even extract a few sub-bricks that you care about
from the result, then run adwarp to map that smaller
statistical dataset to Talairach space.
