Generating image for publication [Bioimage suite related]
Dear experts,
I have been working on
an attempt to analyse SPECT data for the first time (previous
questions at nitrc forum: 1, 2, 3 ). I used ISAS bioimage
suite to calculate subtractions of inter and ictal SPECTs.
Finally, imported them to SPM for the second level analysis (one
sample T-test, cluster wise, no extended threshold).
Now I want to generate
an image for my publication, using MRIcron is very hard with this
type of data, as it has a lot of noise, causing it to be unusable.
Which approach would you suggest for this case?
Thank you,
luis

It depends on the type of image you wish to show:
-MRIcron is actually excellent for extracting the VOI and displaying 2D images in a single plane or as orthogonal triplane images. I have found these steps helpful:
-The "nicest" 3D representation can be done with MeVisLab's View3D.
-MRIcron is actually excellent for extracting the VOI and displaying 2D images in a single plane or as orthogonal triplane images. I have found these steps helpful:
- First, create an intensity filter of the perfusion image from the Draw menu. This will allow you to "extract" the volume of the hyper (or hypo) perfusion clusters.
- Then mask the clusters in the perfusion image using the Draw menu. Open the image of the clusters, then open the intensity filter voi as a VOI in the Draw menu, then apply the mask and save the result.
- Finally open the masked perfusion cluster as an overlay on your T1. I favor the actc LUT/color map to show these results

- Put the stripped T1 in as the main image,
- then add the perfusion cluster you created with the MRIcron method as an isocontour overlay. I attached a typical MeVisLab network to show the setup.
- You can clip the T1 in any plane to expose the deeper portions of the cluster or modify the transparency to do that.

Thank you very much for the reply, it helped generate much better
images.
I plan to use mricron for 2D images, how should I go about only filtering the significant hyperperfusion areas from my SPM second-level analysis?
