mincmakevector - convert a list of scalar minc files into one
vector file
mincmakevector [<options>] <in>.mnc [...]
<out>.mnc
Mincmakevector converts a list of scalar minc files into
one vector minc file. A vector minc file is one that contains the dimension
vector_dimension as the fastest varying dimension of the image data
and represents vector data at each voxel such as RGB images or gradient
volumes. A scalar minc file does not contain the vector dimension and
represents grayscale or intensity data.
Note that options can be specified in abbreviated form (as long as
they are unique) and can be given anywhere on the command line.
- -2
- Create a MINC 2.0 format output file.
- -clobber
- Overwrite an existing file.
- -noclobber
- Don't overwrite an existing file (default).
- -no_clobber
- Synonym for -noclobber.
- -verbose
- Print out progress information for each chunk of data copied
(default).
- -quiet
- Do not print out progress information.
- -buffer_size size
- Specify the maximum size of the internal buffers (in kbytes). Default is
10 MB.
- -filetype
- Create an output file with the same type as the first input file
(default).
- -byte
- Store output voxels as 8-bit integers.
- -short
- Store output voxels as 16-bit integers.
- -int
- Store output voxels as 32-bit integers
- -long
- Superseded by -int.
- -float
- Store output voxels as 32-bit floating point numbers.
- -double
- Store output voxels as 64-bit floating point numbers.
- -signed
- Create an output file with data stored in a signed type. This only has an
effect if the one of the -byte, -short or -int
options is specified.
- -unsigned
- Create an output file with data stored in an unsigned type. This only has
an effect if the one of the -byte, -short or -int
options is specified.
- -valid_range min max
- Create an output file with integer data stored in the specified restricted
range. This only has an effect if the one of the -byte,
-short or -int options is specified.
- -help
- Print summary of command-line options and exit.
- -version
- Print the program's version number and exit.
