about extract aal time courses (90)

Submitted by yangth0306 on Sat, 04/18/2015 - 14:55

Dear professor,

could you tell me how to extract AAl time courses (90) through dpabi? there is no button for this.

I have used the old version of dparsf, but an error occur. could you help me solve this problem? The error is shown below:

Extracting ROI time courses: "E:\aal\FunImgNormalizedSmoothedDetrendedFiltered\p-chensiyu"

Hi,

You can do it through DPARSF or DPABI->Utilities->ROI Signal Extractor.

For the error you encountered, you can post a snapshot of your DPARSF settings here.

Best,

Dear Prof. chao-gan,

I want to do graph analysis, and i use dpabi to get functional connectivity of 90 AAL Regions. however, an error happened.

Warning: File: DPARSFA_run.m Line: 671 Column: 83
The temporary variable RefFile will be cleared at the beginning of each iteration of the parfor
loop.
Any value assigned to it before the loop will be lost.  If RefFile is used before it is assigned
in
the parfor loop, a runtime error will occur.

Hi, 

"Wrong ROI definition, please check: E:\try-aal\Masks\p-chensiyu_CsfMask_07_91x109x91.nii"

I will first suggest you to change "-" in path to "_".

If that doesn't work, please try a later version of DPARSFA, in case there is any bug with that version.

Best,

Chao-Gan
