To use the toolbox with data in NIfTI format, see `example_nii` in examples.

(2018, NeuroImage) and % Madan & Kensinger (2018, Eur J Neurosci) for further details. % 'none' == Binarized volume to be manually entered % (e.g., benchmark volumes). % % options.input = filename string, required for 'Dest_aparc' and 'Dest_select % if options.aparc == 'Dest_aparc' % This should be a file with the name 'mask_*.txt', % where * is the value in options.input. % File should have either 74 or 148 rows, only 1 column. % If only 74 values, labels are assigned bilaterally. % Value in each row is the label to assign to that parcellated region, % based on the Destrieux et al. (2010) parcellation scheme. % See 'mask_lobe.txt' for an example. % See 'calcFD_mask.xlsx' for a list of which regions correspond to each row number. % -- % if options.aparc == 'Dest_select' % This should be a file with the name 'select_*.txt', % where * is the value in options.input. % Regions correspond to intensity values in aparc.a2009s+aseg.mgz. % See FreeSurfer files (e.g., FreeSurferColorLUT.txt, ASegStatsLUT.txt, % WMParcStatsLUT.txt) for mapping of region intensities to names. % Multiple region values on the same row will be processed as a single structure. % Currently cannot use the same region in more than one row, % if need to violate this, use multiple input text files. % See 'select_subcort.txt' and 'select_ventricles.txt' for examples. % % options.output = filename string to output FD values to % % % OPTIONAL INPUTS: % options.boxsizes = list of numbers % Default: 2.^[0:4] (resolves to [1,2,4,8,16]) % Specify what 'box sizes' (also applies to dilation algorithm) to use % when calculating FD. % Preferred to scale in powers of two. % % ---- % % The calcFD toolbox is available from: http://cmadan.github.io/calcFD/. % % Please cite this paper if you use the toolbox: % Madan, C.
