[MINC-users] time and time-width dimension in dynamic image

[Sylvain MILOT]

Hmmm, I think there might be a way to do this with mincconcat

but I've never tried it, see mincconcat -help

...

-coordlist:            Specify the dimension coordinates ("<c1>,<c2>,...").
-widthlist:            Specify the dimension widths ("<w1>,<w2>,...").

...
