layout


Purpose:

This program will create a 2D layout using images sampled at regular intervals from a 3D data set. This is especially useful for creating illustrations.


Usage:

layout input orient(t/c/s) width height z-start z-step output [overwrite?(y/n)]

where the following definitions apply:
input
the name of the input file
orient(t/c/s)
  • t=transverse sections of the input file
  • c=coronal sections of the input file
  • s=sagittal sections of the input file
width
the width (in images) of output
height
the height (in images) of output
z-start
the number of the first transverse, coronal or sagittal section that you want displayed (section numbering starts at 1, not zero)
z-step
the number of sections to increment to find the next section of interest (negative numbers are allowed)
output
the name of the output file
overwrite?(y/n)
'y' grants permission to overwrite output

Examples:

layout mri1 t 3 4 14 -1 mrilayout y
