Render 3D image

[AsyaCosmos]

Hello everyone!

Can anyone help me create a 3D image?

I did the analysis of Ginger Ale and I want to do the result not in views (Ax-Sag-Cor), but in 3D MNI or Talairach plate. That is, I want the results of an ALE meta-analysis (multiple contrasts, .nii format) overlaid on 1 3D brain model.

Thanks in advance!

Hi-

I'm not sure about what GingerAle outputs. What do you have as a starting point---it is just a list of coordinate locations, for example?

Yes, that's right, I have 2 sets of coordinates. I want ADD to be red and SUB to be green on the same template (so they don't mix). I can’t attach coordinates sets, however, the picture for ADD only I could get.

There are many ways to make similar visualizations with AFNI's volume rendering or SUMA's volume or surface rendering. Take a look at this recent post and a link to our webpage on how to use spheres with volume or surface rendering.

What kind of visualization are you "envisioning"? If you are working with volumetric data, then you will need to make either NIFTI or AFNI datasets. Our matlab library or others could be used for that, but you will have to be careful about the header parameters like orientation. For specific xyz locations, you can place spheres. Again, you have to be careful about the various conventions of coordinates and orientation that we use, which may be different from the one you use in matlab. Connecti…

Thank you dglen! With your help, I made it!

Great! Let's see a sample.
