        If set it indicates that the warps in --warp1 and --warp2 should be
        interpreted as absolute. I.e. the values in --warp1/2 are the
        coordinates in the next space, rather than displacements. This flag
        is ignored if --warp1/2 was created by fnirt, which always creates
        relative displacements.
        flag: --abs
        mutually_exclusive: relwarp
args: (a string)
        Additional parameters to the command

        mutually_exclusive: out_relwarp
out_file: (a file name)
        Name of output file, containing warps that are the combination of

        flag: --postmat=%s
premat: (an existing file name)
        filename for pre-transform (affine matrix)
        flag: --premat=%s
relwarp: (a boolean)
        If set it indicates that the warps in --warp1/2 should be

        output, `file` - writes output to file, `none` - output is ignored
warp1: (an existing file name)
        Name of file containing initial warp-fields/coefficients (follows
        premat). This could e.g. be a fnirt-transform from a subjects
        structural scan to an average of a group of subjects.
        flag: --warp1=%s
warp2: (an existing file name)
        Name of file containing secondary warp-fields/coefficients (after
        warp1/midmat but before postmat). This could e.g. be a fnirt-
        transform from the average of a group of subjects to some standard
        space (e.g. MNI152).
        flag: --warp2=%s

Outputs:

        Name of output file, containing the warp as field or coefficients.

ExtractROI

Link to code

Wraps command fslroi

Uses FSL Fslroi command to extract region of interest (ROI) from an image.

You can a) take a 3D ROI from a 3D data set (or if it is 4D, the same ROI is taken from each time point and a new 4D data set is created), b) extract just some time points from a 4D data set, or c) control time and space limits to the ROI. Note that the arguments are minimum index and size (not maximum index). So to extract voxels 10 to 12 inclusive you would specify 10 and 3 (not 10 and 12).

Examples

>>> from nipype.interfaces.fsl import ExtractROI
>>> from nipype.testing import anatfile
>>> fslroi = ExtractROI(in_file=anatfile, roi_file='bar.nii', t_min=0,

PlotMotionParams

Link to code

Wraps command fsl_tsplot

The ‘in_source’ attribute determines the order of columns that are expected in the source file. FSL prints motion parameters in the order rotations, translations, while SPM prints them in the opposite order.

        typically be the output from the --cout switch of fnirt (but can
        also use fields, like the output from --fout).
        flag: --in=%s
reference: (an existing file name)
        Name of a file in target space. Note that the target space is now
        different from the target space that was used to create the --warp
        file. It would typically be the file that was specified with the
        --in argument when running fnirt.
        flag: --ref=%s
write_jacobian: (a boolean, nipype default value: False)
        Switch on --jac flag with automatically generated filename

[Optional]
args: (a string)
        Additional parameters to the command
        flag: %s
environ: (a dictionary with keys which are a value of type 'str' and
         with values which are a value of type 'str', nipype default value:
         {})
        Environment variables
ignore_exception: (a boolean, nipype default value: False)
        Print an error message instead of throwing an exception in case the
        interface fails to run
knot_space: (a tuple of the form: (an integer (int or long), an
         integer (int or long), an integer (int or long)))
        Alternative (to --warpres) specification of the resolution of the
        output spline-field.
        flag: --knotspace=%d,%d,%d
out_file: (a file name)
        Name of output file. The format of the output depends on what other
        parameters are set. The default format is a (4D) field-file. If the
        --outformat is set to spline the format will be a (4D) file of
        spline coefficients.
        flag: --out=%s, position: -1
out_format: ('spline' or 'field')
        Specifies the output format. If set to field (default) the output
        will be a (4D) field-file. If set to spline the format will be a
        (4D) file of spline coefficients.
        flag: --outformat=%s
out_jacobian: (a file name)
        Specifies that a (3D) file of Jacobian determinants corresponding to
        --in should be produced and written to filename.
        flag: --jac=%s
output_type: ('NIFTI_PAIR' or 'NIFTI_PAIR_GZ' or 'NIFTI_GZ' or
         'NIFTI')
        FSL output type
terminal_output: ('stream' or 'allatonce' or 'file' or 'none')
        Control terminal output: `stream` - displays to terminal immediately
        (default), `allatonce` - waits till command is finished to display
        output, `file` - writes output to file, `none` - output is ignored
warp_resolution: (a tuple of the form: (a float, a float, a float))
        Specifies the resolution/knot-spacing of the splines pertaining to
        the coefficients in the --out file. This parameter is only relevant
        if --outformat is set to spline. It should be noted that if the --in
        file has a higher resolution, the resulting coefficients will
        pertain to the closest (in a least-squares sense) file in the space
        of fields with the --warpres resolution. It should also be noted
        that the resolution will always be an integer multiple of the voxel
        size.
        flag: --warpres=%0.4f,%0.4f,%0.4f
with_affine: (a boolean)
        Specifies that the affine transform (i.e. that which was specified
        for the --aff parameter in fnirt) should be included as
        displacements in the --out file. That can be useful for interfacing
        with software that cannot decode FSL/fnirt coefficient-files (where
        the affine transform is stored separately from the displacements).
        flag: --withaff

Outputs:

out_file: (a file name)
        Name of output file, containing the warp as field or coefficients.
out_jacobian: (a file name)
        Name of output file, containing the map of the determinant of the
        Jacobian
