Threshold an image — fsl

This function calls fslmaths -thr -uthr to threshold an image and either saves the image or returns an object of class nifti

fsl_thresh(..., outfile = tempfile(fileext = ".nii.gz"), retimg = FALSE)

fslthresh(
  file,
  outfile = NULL,
  thresh = 0,
  uthresh = NULL,
  retimg = TRUE,
  reorient = FALSE,
  intern = FALSE,
  opts = "",
  verbose = TRUE,
  ...
)

Arguments

...	additional arguments passed to `readnii`.
outfile	(character) name of resultant thresholded file
retimg	(logical) return image of class nifti
file	(character) filename of image to be thresholded
thresh	(numeric) threshold (anything below set to 0)
uthresh	(numeric) upper threshold (anything above set to 0)
reorient	(logical) If retimg, should file be reoriented when read in? Passed to `readnii`.
intern	(logical) pass to `system`
opts	(character) additional options to be passed to fslmaths
verbose	(logical) print out command before running

Value

character or logical depending on intern

Note

Functions with underscores have different defaults and will return an output filename, so to be used for piping

Examples

if (have.fsl()){
system.time({
x = array(rnorm(1e6), dim = c(100, 100, 100))
img = nifti(x, dim= c(100, 100, 100), 
datatype = convert.datatype()$FLOAT32, cal.min = min(x), 
cal.max = max(x), pixdim = rep(1, 4))
thresh = fslthresh(img, thresh=0, uthresh = 2, retimg=TRUE)
})
