rgb_to_minc

convert RGB images to a MINC volume

rgb_to_minc output.mnc 3|4|23|24 input1.rgb input2.rgb ...

DESCRIPTION

rgb_to_minc converts one or more RGB image files into a MINC volume. The mode argument specifies the output dimensionality and organization:

• 3 — Create a 3D volume from the input images (stacked as slices).
• 4 — Create a 4D volume from the input images.
• 23 — Create a 2D+colour (3D with vector dimension) volume.
• 24 — Create a 2D+colour+time (4D with vector dimension) volume.

Multiple input RGB images can be specified and are assembled into the output volume according to the selected mode.

EXAMPLES

Stack RGB images into a 3D volume:

rgb_to_minc output.mnc 3 slice01.rgb slice02.rgb slice03.rgb

Create a 2D colour volume from a single image:

rgb_to_minc output.mnc 23 image.rgb
