including non-brain func data in registration #2753

Open manzouri opened 2 years ago

manzouri commented 2 years ago

What happened?

I run fmriprep on the subjects with 5 sessions and having 4 tasks per session. In the report of Alignment of func and anat MRI , there are both volume and surface driven results and for the majority of tasks and sessions , it seems that anat has been registered to func data including non-brain regions. I can also see maybe 1 out of 20 good registration in one subject. I plan to use the confounds and denoise the data and then register it to MNI 3mm and feed it to another program. So I would like to know if the alignment affect my steps ( ie. on confound calculations) and also the reason of the poor alignment.

What command did you use?

fmriprep-docker $bids_root_dir $out_dir/ \
    participant \
    --participant-label $subject \
    --skip-bids-validation \
    --md-only-boilerplate \
    --output-spaces func:res-native \
    --bold2t1w-dof 12  \
    --fs-license-file /usr/local/freesurfer/license.txt \

fMRIPrep version: 21.0.1

Your bold-T1w degrees of freedom is 12, which is very rarely needed. It looks like you're seeing scaling issues, as your BOLD is significantly smaller than your T1w. I would suggest retrying with 6dof and seeing if you get better results.

The coregistration should have no impact on confounds.

Hi and thanks @effigies , do you have any recommendations for denoising also , tool and which confounds?
