Dear Tofayel,
Our map expert is away this week and next week. All I can suggest is to take a look at this previous post (which you may have seen already):

There is also a “localFSC” plugin to Chimera that you could get separately, see:

… however, I don’t know if it is relevant to your question.
Sorry I couldn’t provide a more confident answer, Maybe other EM folks on this list will have some thoughts.
Best,
Elaine

to take care of the pixel and box values ( then saved as 2.mrc). Thereafter, I have used "e2proc3d.py 1.mrc fsc.txt --calcfsc=2.mrc and plotted the fsc.txt file to get the curve.
