SYNOPSIS

mia-3dmotioncompica-nonrigid -i <in-file> -o <out-file> [options]

DESCRIPTION

mia-3dmotioncompica-nonrigid This program implements a 3D version of the motion compensation algorithm described in Wollny G, Kellman P, Santos A, Ledesma-Carbayo M-J, "Automatic Motion Compensation of Free Breathing acquired Myocardial Perfusion Data by using Independent Component Analysis", Medical Image Analysis, 2012, DOI:10.1016/j.media.2012.02.004.

OPTIONS

File-IO

-i --in-file=(input,required)

input images of consecutively numbered filed (nameXXXX.ext) For supported file types see PLUGINS:3dimage/io

-o --out-file=(output,required)

output image name (as C format string including a %04d in order to define the file numbering) For supported file types see PLUGINS:3dimage/io

--save-refs=

save reference images, the given string is used as file name base, the number pattern follows the input images, and the output format is always 'vista'

--save-regs=

save intermediate registered images, the given string is used as file name base, the number pattern follows the input images, and the output format is always 'vista'

--save-coeffs=

save mixing matrix to a text file

--save-features=

save feature images as PNG

ICA

-C --components=0

ICA components 0 = automatic estimation

--no-normalize

don't normalized ICs

--no-meanstrip

don't strip the mean from the mixing curves

-k --skip=0

skip images at the beginning of the series e.g. because as they are of other modalities

-m --max-ica-iter=400

maximum number of iterations in ICA

Processing

--threads=-1

Maxiumum number of threads to use for processing,This number should be lower or equal to the number of logical processor cores in the machine. (-1: automatic estimation).

Registration

-O --optimizer=gsl:opt=gd,step=0.1

Optimizer used for minimization

-a --start-c-rate=32

start coefficinet rate in spines, gets divided by --c-rate-divider with every pass

--c-rate-divider=4

cofficient rate divider for each pass

-d --start-divcurl=20

start divcurl weight, gets divided by --divcurl-divider with every pass

--divcurl-divider=4

divcurl weight scaling with each new pass

-w --imagecost=image:weight=1,cost=ssd,

image cost

-l --mg-levels=3

multi-resolution levels

-P --passes=3

registration passes
