viewing angles:
å Roll =
angle about I-S axis
å Pitch =
angle about L-R axis (after roll rotation)
å Yaw =
angle about A-P axis (after roll and pitch)
²Rendering
is CPU and memory intensive --- a fast computer is very desirable
•Utility
program 3dIntracranial can be used to strip the scalp off of a T1-weighted anatomical volume. In some cases, this may need to be done with
the orig dataset, which may then be written out in Talairach
coordinates.
²For
example:
² 3dIntracranial -anat anat+tlrc
-prefix astrip
•AFNI can
now render datasets that are stored with an arbitrary orientation and voxel size
²Datasets are internally re-oriented (see 3dresample) to axial slice order, so that cut directions make sense. This may take a few seconds, depending on the computer.
²Note that axial slice order is the standard for
‘warped’ datasets written out to disk
in +acpc or +tlrc coordinates.
²The Overlay dataset may also be resampled, so that its
grid spacing matches that of
the Underlay dataset.
