These
pages document technologies of interest to the CNL. Rather than
providing full in-depth coverage of each application, we try to
document tasks and concepts that CNL researchers need repeatedly,
and to gather together useful scripts and tutorials. This is, and
will likely always be, a work in progress.
For
our purposes, image analysis tools fall into two classes:
1)
General purpose tools that can be used for image processing as well
as a variety of other purposes (e.g. Matlab, Khoros and IDL)
2)
Tools specific to image processing, usually medical image processing
(Afni, SPM, MRIcro, MrGray etc).
Some
tools are free-standing (Mrgray, Mricro), some depend upon others
(e.g., SPM requires Matlab). Tools may run on only one platform
(e.g., MrGray is a PC windows based program) or be cross-platform
(MrFlatmesh will run anywhere that Matlab is installed). Some tools
are free and others are not. Such features of the tools are documented
on their respective pages.
If
you are interested in the field of digital image analysis, a branch
of signal processing, then have a look at John C. Russ's Online
Image Processing Tutorial.
We
hope you find these pages useful and welcome you to email us
