RE: Motion parameters
Yes, it does stores the (affine) motion information (that was
detected and corrected by the motion correction step) in the
xml-report. Per DWI you will find there the full
transformation matrix (in case you want to use that), plus 2
summary features for the overall translation and the overall
rotation. The entries are labeled as TranslationNorm and
Angle.
here is the info, how these are computed
Angle = combined angle, this is the single total rotation around the best fitting rotation axis (so not one of the coordinate axes x, y, z) needed to represent the motion. This is actually not extracted from the affine transform, but simpler by looking at the angle between the gradient direction before the motion correction and after (which is very simple to extract).
Translation = norm/length of the translation vector = sqrt(tx*tx + ty*ty + tz*tz), the translation vector is easily extracted from the Affine transform
The affine transform is to the average baseline (by default computed via iterative unbiased averaging), see also:
