Extension Description

Quick Tour of Features and Use

This tool creates an Atlas image as an average of several DTI images that will be registered. The registration will be done in two steps : - Affine Registration with BRAINSFit - Non Linear Registration with AtlasWerks A final step will apply the transformations to the original DTI images so that the final average can be computed.

The main function writes a python script that will be executed to compute the Atlas.

By running DTIAtlasBuilder, you will need to fill in informations in a Graphical User Interface, and then compute the Atlas. You can also run the tool in command line without using the GUI. Using the GUI, you will be able to save or load a dataset file or a parameter file.

--overwrite
    If you want to overwrite on previous compute (default: 0)
  --nogui
    If you do not need the GUI (default: 0)
  • Parameters:
    • Parameter File [--parameter_file] [-p]: Parameter file created with this program (.txt)
    • Dataset File [--dataset_file] [-d]: CSV file containing the dataset (.csv)
    • Configuration file [--configuration_file] [-c]: Software configuration file
    • Overwrite [--overwrite]: If you want to overwrite on previous compute (default: 0)
    • No GUI [--nogui] : If you do not need the GUI (default: 0)
