NAME
       nii2mnc - convert a NIfTI-1 or Analyze 7.5 format file to a MINC	format
       file.

SYNOPSIS
       nii2mnc [<options>] <infile> <outfile.mnc>

       nii2mnc -help

DESCRIPTION
       The  nii2mnc  command is	used to	convert	"NIfTI-1" format files to MINC
       format.	The NIfTI-1 format was developed by the	members	 of  the  Neu-
       roinformatics Technology	Initiative's Data Format Working Group (DFWG).
       The NIfTI-1 format is based upon	the Mayo Clinic's Analyze 7.5 format.

       The  name  of  the program is derived from the common filename suffixes
       used for	NIfTI-1	and MINC files.	 NIfTI-1 defines two possible formats,
       a "header plus raw image" 2-file	format,	and a single-file format  that
       includes	 both  header information and the image	data.  As with Analyze
       7.5, the	2-file format consists of one file with	the suffix ".hdr"  and
       another file with the extension ".img".	In NIfTI-1 single-file format,
       the two files may be combined into a single file	with a ".nii" filename
       suffix.

OPTIONS
       Note that options can be	specified in abbreviated form (as long as they
       are unique) and can be given anywhere on	the command line.

Output voxel format
       -float Save voxels in 32-bit floating point format

       -double
	      Save voxels in 64-bit floating point format

       -byte  Save voxels in 8-bit integer format

       -short Save voxels in 16-bit integer format

       -int   Save voxels in 32-bit integer format

       -signed
	      Save voxels in signed (2's complement) integer format

       -unsigned
	      Save voxels in unsigned integer format

Analyze	7.5 specific options
       -transverse
	      Assume data is in	ZYX dimension order.

       -sagittal
	      Assume data is in	XZY dimension order.

       -coronal
	      Assume data is in	YZX dimension order.

       -xyz   Assume data is in	XYZ dimension order.

       -zxy   Assume data is in	ZXY dimension order.

       -yxz   Assume data is in	YXZ dimension order.

       -flipx, -flipy, -flipz
	      Invert the samples along the given axis.

Other options
       -noscanrange
	      Don't scan data to determine valid range.

       -quiet Quiet  operation	-  do not print	progress or debugging informa-
	      tion.

Generic	options	for all	commands
       -help  Print summary of command-line options and	abort

       -version
	      Print the	program	and library versions and abort

KNOWN BUGS
       Current handling	of  NIfTI-1  qform  and	 sform	coordinate  transforms
       should probably be revised as the NIfTI group clarifies the correct us-
       age of these fields.
