Hi,

I’ve been trying to find the Nipype implementation for the Dartel - Run Dartel (existing templates) routine from SPM12 interface to run Dartel with my own tissue map template (TPM based on MNI and extra tissue class for tumor, see m-file at the end of this message). But I only found the spm.DARTEL() function which produces its own templates and has no input parameter for existing templates.

It seems that this specific routine isn’t implemented yet, am I right ? And if so, would it be possible to adapt the Nipype implementation of Dartel to take this case into account?

Thanks for your answer,

Ariane
