fMRIPrep is a robust and easy-to-use pipeline for preprocessing of diverse fMRI data. The transparent workflow dispenses of manual intervention, thereby ensuring the reproducibility of the results.
When the data are resampled from the 1mm isotropic .mgz file to T1 space, the interpolation causes voxels on the boundary regions to be replaced by values intermediate between the values of the two regions.
For example:
PATHTOPROCESSEDANATFILES/sub-XXX_desc-aparcaseg_dseg.nii.gz or
PATHTOPROCESSEDANATFILES/sub-XXX_desc-aseg_dseg.nii.gz
I found that when I want to extract certain values corresponding to the cerebellum (values 7,8,46 and 47 from the original freesurfer output aparc+aseg.mgz) I find various voxels outside the cerebellum which have the values 7,8,46 and 47. The voxels seem to lie between prior voxels that would average to the new value (e.g. there are values of 2 and 12 in aparc+aseg.mgz around the voxel which is now 7 )
.
Screenshot attached. Blue is where the values 7,8 and 46,47 of the cerebellum all appear in my PATHTOPROCESSEDANATFILES/sub-XXX_desc-aparcaseg_dseg.nii.gz and PATHTOPROCESSEDANATFILES/sub-XXX_desc-aseg_dseg.nii.gz.
