Summary of what happened:
Hello,
I am using fmriprep v23.0.2 and I am not sure if the registration of my functional images to the MNI space worked properly. When I look at the brain mask or the desc-preproc-bold.nii.gz file, they do not really look like being in the shape of the MNI template. For the T1, this looks fine.
So, I am not sure if this is normal, or if something went wrong somewhere?
When I compare the T1w and the functional image and/or brain mask, they all say being normalized to the MNI152NLin2009cAsym template, which would suggest to me that these should have the same shape.
I am also not sure what kind of mask I would now use for data analysis when I use this dataset for example with nilearn or conn.
Thank you for your help!
Best,
Klemens
