Thanks very much Dr.Mori, When I unchecked the automatic outlier option (in both the versions and reran) the results are the same between the two versions, so the difference was contributed by the different automatic rejection algorithms.
Thanks again
Venkat

Thank you for letting us know this.
If you just subtract the two FA maps (or RA maps) by using RoiEditor (without tracking), do you get significant difference? The algorithms of automated rejection are not same between the two versions. If your data has some motion problems and many slices were rejected, it is possible that two different algorithms rejected the different number of slices. You can check which slices were rejected.
I would recommend you to use the regular tensor calculation without slice rejection and make sure the results are the same. If so, the difference should come from the rejection scheme.

Dear All,
I am surpirsed to find that DTI metrics (for instance RA metric) between DTIstudio_3.0_ beta version and DTIstudio_latest which i downloaded recently were very much different.
Same options were used like automatic outlier rejection of images >3% also the same CST ROI was superimposed in both the DTI studio beta version and in DTIstudio latest

What am i doing wrong here. Same DTI data was used in both the versions and the processing steps were identical.
Thanks
