brain extraction of diffusion images
Hello, 

I did eddy current correction for the 4D.nii nifti image of my diffusion weighted images, but when I do brain extraction, the image will be 3d.nii, which I cant use in the dke software. so is skull removal prior to kurtosis estimation a necessity or does not have an effect on results?

Hello Wafaa
I take you are talking about FLS for the eddy correction and brain extraction? If I understand what you want to do, you need to generate a mask when you use the brain extraction function, then you can use fslmaths to multiply that mask for every volume in the 4D nifty.
