Hi,

We're trying to examine a contrast image that was generated in SPM overlaid on an anatomical MRI. Both images are in NIFTI format. Both images have non-cardinal oblique transforms encoded in qforms (with sform = qform). The images have been coregistered in SPM5. In the SPM viewer, the images are well registered.

In the AFNI viewer, however, the images are clearly misaligned. So here is the question:

1. What does the AFNI viewer do with the qform? ignore it?

2. How do I get AFNI to use the qform information?

3. When I convert to AFNI format using 3dcopy, I see that the qform info shows up in the field "IJK_TO_DICOM_REAL" -- how is this information used?

4. clicking the button "warp underlay on demand" does not seem to get AFNI to use the qform info. Should it?


thanks,

Brad Buchsbaum
