mincWriteVolume: Write a MINC volume to file

In Mouse-Imaging-Centre/RMINC: Statistical Tools for Medical Imaging NetCDF (MINC) Files

Write a MINC volume to file

Description

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

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

Value

A list with the parameters of the minc volume written

Methods (by class)

• mincSingleDim: mincSingleDim

• mincMultiDim: mincMultiDim

• default: default

Examples

## Not run: 
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")
