Purpose:

This program takes a .air file and uses the spatial transformation that it describes to transform the coordinates listed in a .ucf file. The .ucf file is assumed to refer to locations in the .air file's reslice file. After transformation the output .ucf file will refer to corresponding locations in the .air file's standard file.

Usage:

reslice_ucf .air-file ucf-file output-ucf-file [ow?(y/n)]

where the following definitions apply:

.air-file

name of the .air file that contains the spatial transformation parameters

ucf-file

the name of the input .ucf file

output-ucf-file

the name of the output .ucf file to be created

ow?(y/n)

'y' grants permission of overwrite any existing file output-ucf-file

Examples:

• The spatial transformation described in time2.airtime1 will be used to transform the coordinates in time2.ucf (which will be assumed to describe coordinates in time2.airtime1's reslice file). The transformed coordinates will be stored in time2new.ucf

Comments:

• If the UCF file is a formal UCLA Laboratory of Neuroimaging UCF file, warnings will be printed if the UCF file appears incompatible with the reslice file described in the .air file

Error messages: (alphabetical by case)

Expected ____ valid values, found ____

• Different points in the UCF file have differing number of associated values

Inversion failed

• The .air file could not be inverted
