Hi all,<br><br>Thanks SC to follow the question. I just want to add several points;<br><br>1) We are looking into the way RoiEditor draws ROI and hope we can improve the interface.<br>2) Please note that one of the reason of jagged ROIs in RoiEditor is due to pixel resolution. The ROIs are drawn based on monitor resolution, which is very high and you can draw smooth ROIs. However, when the drawn ROIs are translated into actual ROIs in the images, they have to be converted to image pixel-dimension. This could be one of the reasons why the final ROIs do not look as good.<br>
3) If you have two images, such as anatomical T1/T2 and DTI, which are not co-registered and you want to register them, you can try DiffeoMap. There are two approaches. For animal studies in which you can assume that the head position is stable, you can register them theoretically based on scan parameters such as the locations and sizes of FOV. DiffeoMap has functions to resize and relocate FOV and matrix. If you can't use this approach for some reason, you can use the AIR/MUT options.<br>
4) DtiStudio also has image registration functions, but they are for intra-DTI image registration. If you want cross-modality (e.g. T1 vs DTI) registration, you need to use DiffeoMap.<br>5) MUT tends to be more accurate and less sensitive to parameters. However, it takes much longer time. Typical 30-orientation DTI may take overnight. If you are using it for cross-modality registration just for 1 image, you should get results within 30 min or so.<br>

MUT doesnt do anything it gets stuck.... So i am using AIR and 90 for noise
reduction because i heard that's what you have to use for siemens machines....
also affine. tri linear interpolation and standard derivation. So im just
changing the affine and the 90 noise reduction. The images look ok... bu then
again i cant compare it to the MUT because i cant use it. SC, dont you find it
troublesome that when you draw the ROIS in ROIeditor, the roi selected isnt
really what the selection ends up to be? I mean When you are selecting your
pixels and then choose to add as an object, the object you make is not exactly
what you had chosen. Is there anyway to fix this? i tried reducing the pencil
diameter or doing a fill in the roi and then adding but it always looks kinda
crappy... it's still better than picking the ROIS from dtistudio though... I
also heard that you can edit your rois importing the images from Dtistudio into
ImageJ but i dont know how to do this. Maybe i would try it because in there you
can import the anatomy sequences to draw your rois on top of
them.</font></span></div>

<div>Salvador,</div>
<div><br></div>What I know about difference between AIR and Mutual info based
(MUT) registration, AIR is somewhat sensitive to noise level and has more
options to be determined. What I heard from developer group about the noise
level in AIR is that the noise level should be determined by empirical way. And
it has more options for fitting methods. But which one works better, you should
decide after a couple of trial and errors.
<div>MUT has less option to be determined by user. MUT is based on information
entropy maximization as far as I know. It is one of the good registration
methods. But I have no idea about which one is better between AIR or MUT. I
prefer to use MUT because less user options, which means it is more automatic.
At least, I don't need to play with it to find a proper noise level for
AIR. </div>

<div>Darren,</div>
<div><br></div>I experienced the similar problem. I wanted to use ROI drawn in
ROI panel but it did not work at all. ROI saving and loading functions seem to
work in FIBER panel, but not in the ROI panel.
<div><br></div>
<div>If you want to use ROI for DTI metrics such as FA or ADC measurements, I
recommend ROIeditor (a companion tool to DTIstudio). That is more
powerful. </div>
<div><br></div>
<div>I always process data in DTI studio. Then load all the processed data
into ROI editor. </div>
<div>Finally, do the measurement with ROI editor. </div>
<div><br></div>
<div>The saved ROIs can be reused in the DTI studio for fiber tracking.
However, again, the ROIs could not be used in ROI panel of the DTI studio on
my computers (home computer, laptop, and office computer). </div>
<div><br></div>
<div>I hope this experience might be a bit of help for your problem in using
DTI studio.<br>
