Arguments

data_file

input data in nifti format, a file chooser will open if not set

roi_width

roi analysis region in pixels (default=21)

slice_num

slice number for analysis (default=middle slice)

skip

number of initial volumes to exclude from the analysis (default=2)

tr

override the TR detected from data (seconds)

pix_dim

override the x,y,z pixel dimensions (mm) detected from data eg pixdim=c(3,3,3)

poly_det_ord

polynomial order used for detrending (default=3)

spike_detect

generate k-space spike-detection plot (default=FALSE)

x_pos

x position of ROI (default=center of gravity)

y_pos

y position of ROI (default=center of gravity)

plot_title

add a title to the png and pdf plots

last_vol

last volume number to use in the analysis

gen_png

output png plot (default=TRUE)

gen_res_csv

output csv results (default=TRUE)

gen_pdf

output pdf plot (default=FALSE)

gen_spec_csv

output csv of spectral points (default=FALSE)

png_fname

png plot filename

res_fname

csv results filename

pdf_fname

pdf plot filename

spec_fname

csv spectral data filename

verbose

provide text output while running (default=TRUE)

bg_smooth

amount to smooth background image before calculating the maximum BG percent metric (default=12mm)

bg_shrink

amount to shrink the BG image away from the object to avoid residual object signal in the maximum BG percent metric (default=25mm)

Value

dataframe of QA metrics
