Hi,

Thanks for the report, this is a bug, it is failing because it doesn't have a voxel to physical space transformation. It shouldn't need one since the length of each tract is already in physical space. I will work on a fix for this.

In the interim, you can work around the problem by using the FA image you mentioned:

  cat  trk.Bfloat | tractstats -header fa.nii.gz -tractstat length >  stats.Bdouble
