[MINC-users] rawtominc & nu_correct difficulties

[Audette, Michel]

Dear Vladimir, 

these results are indeed impressive. I'm working on applying it to HumanS16885.mnc right now. 

I'll be happy if I can duplicate this. 

What I'm getting with a mask, prior to trying your method, seems to heavily distort the bright area near the strong intensity changes in the dark portions. 

Cheers, 

Michel

I tried playing with Human13959, got some success:

rawtominc -byte -range 0 255 -orange 0 255 -real_range 0 255 -unsigned
-zyx -xstep 1 -ystep 1 -zstep 1 -xstart 0 -ystart 0 -zstart 0 -clob
-oshort Human13959_Stack.mnc 176 187 256  < Human13959_Stack.gray

minccalc -expression '255-A[0]' Human13959_Stack.mnc Human13959_Stack_inv.mnc

nu_correct -clob Human13959_Stack_inv.mnc Human13959_Stack_inv_nuc.mnc
-iter 100 -stop 0.0001 -fwhm 0.1

 minccalc -expression 'clamp(255-A[0],0,255)'
Human13959_Stack_inv_nuc.mnc Human13959_Stack_nuc.mnc -clob

see attached images.

P.S. note that I used step size of 1mm instead of 0.025um as indicated
in the dataset
