autocrop_volume

crop a MINC volume by removing outer voxels below a threshold

autocrop_volume input.mnc output.mnc [min_threshold] [n_boundary_voxels]

DESCRIPTION

autocrop_volume crops a MINC volume by removing the outer voxels whose values are less than or equal to the specified minimum threshold. If no threshold is given, a default of zero is used. An optional number of boundary voxels can be specified to retain a margin around the non-background region.

OPTIONS

This tool uses positional arguments only. There are no named options.

min_threshold
The minimum voxel value to consider as foreground. Voxels at or below this value are treated as background and removed during cropping. Defaults to zero if not specified.
n_boundary_voxels
The number of extra voxels to keep as a boundary around the cropped region. Defaults to zero if not specified.

EXAMPLES

Crop a volume using the default threshold of zero:

autocrop_volume input.mnc output.mnc

Crop a volume using a threshold of 10 with 2 boundary voxels:

autocrop_volume input.mnc output.mnc 10 2
