Correlations between DTI metrics and functional connectivity

[mferra...@gmail.com]

Good Morning,

my lab is working on DTI analysis on depression people. We are analyzing differences and correlations for the different DTI metrics. However, we also have rest fMRI acquisition for the majority of our subjects. My Boss asked me if it is possible to analyze the correlations, at the voxel level, between DTI (e.g. FA) and functional connectivity.

The rest fMRI was analyzed using the ICA method and the dual regression. Therefore, as outputs (from dual regression), we have the maps of the functional connectivity.

My question is: can someone tell me if it is possible to run voxel-based correlations between FA (and the other DTI metrics) and the maps from the dual regression?

Thanks,

Miky
