[MINC-users] using pyminc to convert a philips/ugm file

[Graeme O'Keefe]

thanks Andrew,

for now, my workaround is to use rawtominc.

ie. something like this.

cat p2151s0_VAL_PIBdy28.raw | rawtominc -float -ofloat -xstep 2 -ystep 2 -zstep 2 -xstart -128 -ystart -128 -zstart -45 p2151s0_VAL_PIBdy28.mnc 28 90 128 128 -frame_widths "30,30,30,30,60,60,60,60,60,60,60,60,60,180,180,180,300,300,300,300,300,300,300,300,300,300,600,600" -frame_times "0,30,60,90,120,180,240,300,360,420,480,540,600,660,840,1020,1200,1500,1800,2100,2400,2700,3000,3300,3600,3900,4200,4800"

regards,

Graeme
