Adding ICBM atlas to WFU pickatlas toolbox
Hi there!

I am a final year PhD student & I am currently doing VBM analysis. I wanted to add a white matter atlas to my WFU pickatlas toolbox but I am having a few problems!

I chose the ICBM DTI-81 atlas and downloaded it from here; http://www.loni.usc.edu/ICBM/Downloads/D... 

i added it to the 'MNI_atlas_templates' folder & the information to the 'master_lookup.txt' file and, as a result, the atlas now appears in the main WFU pickatlas toolbox window in the drop down menus for atlases down at the bottom, beside the coordinates function. I can enter coordinates & press go & it will give me the subregion where those coordinates are located so it seems to be recognising the atlas here.

HOWEVER! I really wanted to use this atlas to create WM ROIs for a SVC analysis and the atlas is not appearing in the pink 'HUMAN ATLAS' tab on the left hand side of the window. Does anyone know why this might be the case? I tried adding the same files to the 'legacy' folder within 'MNI_atlas_templates' and I noticed that all of the other atlases have .mat files too - could the reason my atlas is not appearing be that I am lacking this file? There was no .mat file in the ICBM atlas I downloaded from the link above.

Or if anyone new of an alternative WM atlas I could use - I'm pretty much up for anything at this point!

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Georgia
