dipy_correct_biasfield

Synopsis

Correct bias field.

Usage

dipy_correct_biasfield [OPTIONS] input_files

Input Parameters

• input_files

  Path to the input volumes. This path may contain wildcards to process multiple inputs at once.

General Options

• --bval

  Path to the b-value file. (default: None)

• --bvec

  Path to the b-vector file. (default: None)

• --method

  Bias field correction method. Choose from:

  • ‘n4’: DeepN4 bias field correction. See [1] for more details.

  • ‘b0’: B0 bias field correction via normalization.

  ‘n4’ method is recommended for T1-weighted images where ‘b0’ method is recommended for diffusion-weighted images. (default: n4)

• --threshold

  Threshold for cleaning the final correction field in DeepN4 method. (default: 0.5)

• --use_cuda

  Use CUDA for DeepN4 bias field correction. (default: False)

• --verbose

  Print verbose output. (default: False)

Output Options

• --out_dir

  Output directory. (default: current directory)

• --out_corrected

  Name of the corrected volume to be saved. (default: biasfield_corrected.nii.gz)
