[caret-users] Stupid question about mapping_fMRI

[Donna Dierker]

Hi Roland,

If you have lots of volumes to map, so that loading each one in the GUI 
is a pain, then I'd consider scripting the mapping with a combination of 
caret_map_fmri and the equivalent of AFNI's 3daxialize.  (I'm sure there 
are many similar utilities for x-flipping volumes.)  In a pinch, you can 
even x-flip the atlas target coord files, for the purpose of mapping, 
but then display the resulting metric on properly oriented coord files.
