Before starting this tutorialΒΆ

  1. Make sure that you have the following files in your working directory:

    • single_subject/data/mt/mt1.nii.gz: A magnetization transfer image with the off-resonance RF pulse applied.

    • single_subject/data/mt/mtr.nii.gz: An image containing the voxel-wise magnetization transfer ratio.

    • single_subject/data/mt/warp_template2mt.nii.gz : The 4D warping field that defines the transform from the template image to the MT image.

    You can get these files by downloading data_atlas-based-analysis.zip.

Note

If you would like to learn how to compute the magnetization transfer ratio (mtr.nii.gz), please visit the following tutorial:

Additionally, if you would like to learn how to register MT data with the PAM50 template (which is how the warp_template2mt.nii.gz file was generated), please visit either of the following tutorials:

  1. Open a terminal and navigate to the single_subject/data/mt/ directory:
