[FieldTrip] creating new dataset

Is that possible to create a new dataset based on pre-processed 4D neuroimaging dataset by FieldTrip? I mean, such as re-write average results data like in EEGLab?

Hi Jessie,

FieldTrip is not able to write back into the native 4D neuroimaging format. If you want to create a new dataset, you need to have a look at the software which is provided by the 4D neuroimaging company. Your requested functionality may either be a feature of one of the applications, or may be implemented in one of the command line utilities. You may want to look in the software documentation for this.

Best wishes,

Jan-Mathijs

Thanks for your answer Jörn  . Yes I can use those functions to 'exlucde', but these definitions cannot be read by other software. What is why I intended to create a new dataset. Looks like fieldtrip does not allow that...

Of course you could write your own loop, but the easier option would be to call ft_channelselection on your data and then call ft_preprocessing (this will return a new data-structure). See the help of these ft_channelselection:
