[MINC-users] mincbet question

[Andrew Janke]

Hi,

First and foremost, mincbet is by no means supported MINC software. It
is a dodgy hack I perpetrated a few years that has maanged to come
back to haunt me far too many times.... :)

As part of its operation it will convert all data to float. This is a
side-effect of the way data formats are/were used in FSL. I suspect
you will find that your mask is still "in" the minc file but hard to
find due to spurious range values.  I suspect that something like this
should sort  things out a bit.

  mincmath -byte -gt -const 0 bet-mask.mnc new-mask.mnc

But your mileage will vary.
