fRAT - fMRI ROI Analysis Tool
fRAT is an open-source python-based GUI application used to simplify the processing and analysis of fMRI data by converting voxelwise maps into ROI-wise maps. An installation of FSL is required in order to run fRAT.
Project repository: https://github.com/elliohow/fMRI_ROI_Analysis_Tool
Note
fRAT 1.6.4 is written using Python version 3.10 for MacOS, Linux and WSL2 and tested with FSL 6.0.6.2.
A region of interest map created using fRAT, showing the mean temporal Signal-to-Noise for each region. Data is displayed in MNI152 standard space and combines data from multiple subjects.
Using fRAT
Installation instructions for fRAT can be found here. Before running fRAT, it is also recommended that the fRAT and project dependency installation is tested. Information on how to do this can also be found on the installation instructions page.
