Software for imaging at the CBU

Matlab

See LearningMatlab for how to learn and use matlab.

Matlab runs on all the unit imaging Linux machines as well as our Solaris machine, navi (see CbuComputingResources).

Linux machines l02-l07 run Matlab 6; machines l08-l13 Matlab 7.

See SpmInformation for general information on SPM, and SpmVersions for instructions on running SPM at the CBU.

[wiki:UsingAnalyze AnalyzeAVW] - a comprehensive commercial program for viewing neuroimaging data. Particularly useful for rendering. At the CBU, it will only run on the Solaris machines, if atall. Please contact MatthewBrett if you need this program.
