It may not be a great achievement, not even an achievement at all. But it is a sort of moral booster. I guess there have to be events of personal joy where you take a rest from the depression of the research work and enjoy a bit of success (how small it may be). The extension is a work of my getting fed up of the laborious work of using aal (Automated Anatomical Labeling atlas) every time I had to find out what regions are activated in my activation map (although I have become better than before in distinguishing Prefrontal from Parietal!! now). The extension although was written in 2012 but I was too lazy to make documentation or make it organized (nor that it is organized right now). However, it's better now and I feel that atleast someone might find it useful to automatically batch aal results and print a copy for later retrieval.
Well, I almost forgot to add the link : https://github.com/ateshkoul/NeuroImaging/tree/master/spm/batch_aal or you can download it as a zip here: https://github.com/ateshkoul/NeuroImaging/blob/master/spm/batch_aal.zip The script is on github. I believe all our programs and scripts should be there for everyone to use and modify. The extension is easy to use and install: 1. If you have the zip, extract the contents to a folder batch_aal 2. Copy it to your '....spm/toolbox/' folder. (if on windows something like 'c:\Programs\spm\toolbox\batch_aal') 3. Use it from SPM -> Tools -> Batch AAL. Thats it!!!
