Module Description

This Python module takes a volume in input, computes its XYZToRAS transform by matrix manipulation, where XYZ is the local (VTK-compatible) coordinate system, and generate a XYZ-oriented volume in the MRML scene as a child of the XYZToRASTransform.

Usage

Examples, Use Cases & Tutorials

• The module is appropriate when a CLI module can only handle non-oriented images (i.e. images oriented as the XYZ axes), like pure-VTK modules.
• The typical use is as follows: run a volume through this filter, use the output volume as input for the non-orientation-aware CLI module and place the output of this latter module under the XYZToRAS transform generated by the present module by using the MRML tree widget.

Quick Tour of Features and Use

List all the panels in your interface, their features, what they mean, and how to use them. For instance:

• IO:
  • Input Volume: the input volume
  • Output Volume: the output volume, the input volume with its IJKToRAS transform aligned with the XYZ axes, set as the child of the corresponding XYZToRAS transform.
