Description
mri_convert is a general purpose utility for convertin between different file formats. The file type can be specified in two ways. First, mri_convert will try to figure it out on its own from the format of the file name (eg, files thatend in .img are assumed to be in spm analyze format). Second, the user canexplicity set the type of file using --in_type and/or --out_type. Legal values for --in_type (-it) and --out_type (-ot) are:
cor |
MGH-NMR COR format |
minc |
MNI's Medical Imaging NetCDF format (output may not work) |
analyze |
3D analyze (same as spm) |
analyze4d |
4D analyze |
spm |
SPM Analyze format (same as analyze and analyze3d) |
ge |
GE Genesis format (input only) |
gelx |
GE LX (input only) |
lx |
same as gelx |
ximg |
GE XIMG variant (input only) |
siemens |
Siemens IMA (input only) |
dicom |
generic DICOM Format (input only) |
siemens_dicom |
Siemens DICOM Format (input only) |
afni |
AFNI format |
brik |
same as afni |
bshort |
MGH-NMR bshort format |
bfloat |
MGH-NMR bfloat format |
sdt |
Varian (?) |
outline |
MGH-NMR Outline format |
otl |
same as outline |
gdf |
GDF volume (requires image stem for output; use -gis) |
Notes:
If the user specifies any of the direction cosines, the ras_good_flag is set.
CONVERTING TO SPM-ANALYZE FORMAT
Converting to SPM-Analyze format can be done in two ways, depeding uponwhether a single frame or multiple frames are desired. For a single frame,simply specify the output file name with a .img extension, and mri_convert will save the first frame into the file. For multiple frames, specify the base as the output file name and add --out_type spm. This will save each frame as baseXXX.img where XXX is the three-digit, zero-padded frame number. Frame numbers begin at one. By default, the width the of zero padding is 3.This can be controlled with --in_nspmzeropad N where N is the new width.
Examples
Example 1
APPLYING TRANSFORMS (INCLUDING TALAIRACH)
The volume can be resampled into another space by supplying a transform using the --apply_transform flag. This reads the transform file and applies the transform (when --apply_inverse_transform is used, the transform is inverted and then applied). An example of a transform file is talairach.xfm as found in subjectid/mri/transforms. To convert a subject's orig volume to talairach space, execute the following lines:
- cd subjectid/mri mkdir talairach mri_convert --apply_transform transforms/talariach.xfm --devolvexfm subjectid --ic 0 0 0 orig talairach
This properly accounts for the case where the input volume does not have it's coordinate center at 0.
To evaluate the result, run:
- ["tkmedit"] -f $SUBJECTS_DIR/talairach/mri/orig -aux talairach
The main and aux volumes should overlap very closely. If they do not, use ["tkregister2"] to fix it (run tkregister --help for docs).
