Write a MINC volume to file

Volume Export

Usage

mincWriteVolume(buffer, ...)

# S3 method for class 'mincSingleDim'
mincWriteVolume(buffer, output.filename, clobber = NULL, ...)

# S3 method for class 'mincMultiDim'
mincWriteVolume(
  buffer,
  output.filename,
  column = 1,
  like.filename = NULL,
  clobber = NULL,
  ...
)

# Default S3 method
mincWriteVolume(buffer, output.filename, like.filename, clobber = NULL, ...)

Arguments

buffer

The data to be written to file. Usually the result of mincLm or some such command

...

additional arguments to pass to methods

output.filename

The filename to which to write the data to

clobber

Overwrite existing output file when set to TRUE, will not overwrite when set to FALSE and will prompt when NULL

column

Optional name of the column of a multidimensional MINC object to write out. By default the first column is used

like.filename

An existing MINC filename which has the same dimensions as the data to be written out. Normally this information is stored inside MINC data objects

Value

A list with the parameters of the minc volume written

Details

Writes a MINC volume to file

This function takes numeric data, usually the results computed from one of the other mincFunctions, and writes it to file so that it can be viewed or manipulated with the standard MINC tools

Methods (by class)

• mincWriteVolume(mincSingleDim): mincSingleDim

• mincWriteVolume(mincMultiDim): mincMultiDim

• mincWriteVolume(default): default

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
getRMINCTestData()
# read the text file describing the dataset
gf <- read.csv("/tmp/rminctestdata/test_data_set.csv")
# run a linear model relating the data in all voxels to Sex
vs <- mincLm(gf$jacobians_fixed_2 ~ Sex, gf)
# write the results to file
mincWriteVolume(vs, "Fstat.mnc", "F-statistic")
} # }
