pipeline_qc_face.pl

generate QC face renderings from three angles

pipeline_qc_face.pl <native> <candID> <visit> <age> <output> [--stx <xfm>]

DESCRIPTION

pipeline_qc_face.pl generates quality control images showing face renderings from three different viewing angles (typically front, left, and right profiles). These images are used to verify the quality of defacing or to inspect the facial surface reconstruction.

The script takes a native-space volume and produces a composite QC image. An optional stereotaxic transform can be provided with –stx to align the rendering to standard orientation. The output is annotated with candidate ID, visit label, and age.

OPTIONS

--verbose
Print progress information during processing.
--fake
Generate placeholder QC images without performing actual rendering.
--clobber
Overwrite the output file if it already exists.
--stx <xfm>
Stereotaxic transformation file to align the volume to standard orientation before rendering.

EXAMPLES

Generate face QC images:

pipeline_qc_face.pl native_t1.mnc CAND001 V1 25 qc_face.jpg

Generate with a stereotaxic transform:

pipeline_qc_face.pl native_t1.mnc CAND001 V1 25 qc_face.jpg \
  --stx tal.xfm

Generate placeholder images for testing:

pipeline_qc_face.pl native_t1.mnc CAND001 V1 25 qc_face.jpg --fake
