²Examination of time series fred2_epi+orig and fred2_epi_vr_+orig shows that head movement up and down happened within about 1 TR interval
åAssumption of rigid motion of 3D volumes is not good for this case
åCan do 2D slice-wise registration with command
å2dImReg -input fred2_epi+orig \
å -basefile fred1_epi+orig \
å -base 4 -prefix fred2_epi_2Dreg
²Graphs of a single voxel time series near the edge of the brain:
åTop = slice-wise alignment
åMiddle = volume-wise adjustment
åBottom = no alignment
²For this example, 2dImReg appears to produce better results.  This is because most of the motion is Ôhead noddingÕ and the acquisition is sagittal
²You should also use AFNI to scroll through the images (using the Index control) during the period of pronounced movement, on all 3 datasets
