TBSS Step 2: Registration

Library: FSL | Docker Image: brainlife/fsl

Function

Registers all FA images to a target (best subject or standard-space template) using non-linear registration.

Modality: Preprocessed FA images from tbss_1_preproc.

Typical Use: Second step of TBSS pipeline: aligning all subjects to common space.

Key Parameters

-T (use FMRIB58_FA as target), -t (use specified target), -n (find best subject as target)

Key Points

Use -T for standard target (recommended for most analyses). -n finds best representative subject but takes longer. Registration quality should be checked visually.
