[MINC-users] about mritotal

[Andrew Janke]

Huigang,

Yes, the data will have to be correctly oriented before mritotal will
work correctly.  Remember that in MINC data is _always_ supposed to be
correctly oriented. This means that if you have done a coronal or
sagittal acquisition then all that will be different in your file is
the dimension ordering.

If you are converting from dicom using dcm2mnc you should have no
problems with this.
