Smooth Image Within a Mask Only

This function smooth an image within a mask and replaces the values of the original image with the smoothed values.

fslsmooth_in_mask(file, sigma = 10, mask = NULL, ...)

fsl_smooth_in_mask(...)

Arguments

file	(character) image to be smoothed
sigma	(numeric) sigma (in mm) of Gaussian kernel for smoothing
mask	(character) optional mask given for image
...	additional arguments passed to fslsmooth.

Value

Object of class nifti

Examples

if (have.fsl()){
system.time({
dims = c(50, 50, 20)
x = array(rnorm(prod(dims)), dim = dims)
img = nifti(x, dim= dims, 
datatype = convert.datatype()$FLOAT32, cal.min = min(x), 
cal.max = max(x), pixdim = rep(1, 4))
mask = abs(img ) > 1
s.img = fslsmooth_in_mask(img, mask = mask)
})
