.. _warp2metric: warp2metric =================== Synopsis -------- Compute fixel-wise or voxel-wise metrics from a 4D deformation field Usage -------- :: warp2metric [ options ] in - *in*: the input deformation field Description ----------- Fixel data are stored utilising the fixel directory format described in the main documentation, which can be found at the following link: |br| https://mrtrix.readthedocs.io/en/3.0.4/fixel_based_analysis/fixel_directory_format.html Options ------- - **-fc template_fixel_directory output_fixel_directory output_fixel_data** use an input template fixel image to define fibre orientations and output a fixel image describing the change in fibre cross-section (FC) in the perpendicular plane to the fixel orientation. e.g. warp2metric warp.mif -fc fixel_template_directory output_fixel_directory fc.mif - **-jmat output** output a Jacobian matrix image stored in column-major order along the 4th dimension.Note the output jacobian describes the warp gradient w.r.t the scanner space coordinate system - **-jdet output** output the Jacobian determinant instead of the full matrix Standard options ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ - **-info** display information messages. - **-quiet** do not display information messages or progress status; alternatively, this can be achieved by setting the MRTRIX_QUIET environment variable to a non-empty string. - **-debug** display debugging messages. - **-force** force overwrite of output files (caution: using the same file as input and output might cause unexpected behaviour). - **-nthreads number** use this number of threads in multi-threaded applications (set to 0 to disable multi-threading). - **-config key value** *(multiple uses permitted)* temporarily set the value of an MRtrix config file entry. - **-help** display this information page and exit. - **-version** display version information and exit.
