create_landmark_full_volume

create a label volume from landmark tag files

create_landmark_full_volume example_volume output_volume structure_id|-1 n|0 radius tag_file1 tag_file2 ...

DESCRIPTION

create_landmark_full_volume creates a label volume from one or more landmark tag files. Each tag point is expanded into a sphere of the specified radius and assigned the given structure ID label. If structure_id is -1, the structure IDs are read from the tag files. The n parameter controls how many tag points to use (0 for all). The example volume provides the sampling grid for the output.

OPTIONS

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

example_volume
The input MINC volume providing the spatial sampling grid.
output_volume
The output MINC label volume.
structure_id|-1
The label value to assign to each landmark region, or -1 to use structure IDs from the tag files.
n|0
The number of tag points to use, or 0 for all tag points.
radius
The radius (in mm) of the sphere placed at each tag point.
tag_file1 tag_file2 ...
One or more tag point files containing landmark positions.

EXAMPLES

Create landmarks from a tag file with structure ID 5 and radius 3mm:

create_landmark_full_volume template.mnc output.mnc 5 0 3.0 landmarks.tag

Use structure IDs from the tag file:

create_landmark_full_volume template.mnc output.mnc -1 0 2.0 landmarks.tag
