Is there a way to get to3d to use the analyze header's orient field?
I understand this may not be reliable (SPM ignores it also), but
couldn't you use it as a default orientation instead of assuming LPI?
It would be nice if a general user could go from DICOM to Analyze
to BRIK without having to know anything about orientation notation
(either for the command line or for AFNI_ANALYZE_ORIENT).
There are some good DICOM to Analyze converters (ours is based
on xmedcon) which do set this orient field correctly. It would really
help our users if we could get to3d to recognize it.
