pipeline_qc_reg.pl

generate QC image for nonlinear registration quality

pipeline_qc_reg.pl <nl_t1w> <candID> <visit> <age> <output>

DESCRIPTION

pipeline_qc_reg.pl generates a quality control image to assess the quality of nonlinear registration. The script takes the nonlinearly registered T1-weighted volume and produces a QC image that allows visual comparison of the registered brain with the template anatomy.

The output image is annotated with candidate ID, visit label, and age. Poor registration will be visible as anatomical misalignment with the expected template appearance.

OPTIONS

--verbose
Print progress information during processing.
--fake
Generate a placeholder QC image without performing actual rendering.
--clobber
Overwrite the output file if it already exists.

EXAMPLES

Generate a nonlinear registration QC image:

pipeline_qc_reg.pl nl_t1_tal.mnc CAND001 V1 25 qc_nlreg.jpg

Generate with verbose output:

pipeline_qc_reg.pl nl_t1_tal.mnc CAND001 V1 25 qc_nlreg.jpg --verbose

Generate a placeholder image for testing:

pipeline_qc_reg.pl nl_t1_tal.mnc CAND001 V1 25 qc_nlreg.jpg --fake
