How to add T1 background ? And how to export tracts to neuronavigation format?

[Sven Haller]

Dear all

I am new to DSI Studio, and I have 2 very basic questions

I want to reconstruct the central visual pathway in a pre-surgical case with brain metastasis

1. I was able to load and track DTI. How can I upload the corresponding 3DT1 Gd as background image to better visualize the tracts with respect to the Gd enhancing part of the metastasis ??

2. in which format should I export the tracts - so the neurosurgeons can load it into their neuronavigation system?

Any help is highly appreciated

Sven

They can be saved as a text coordinates file:
