read.analyze.hdr(fname, gzipped=TRUE, verbose=FALSE, warn=-1)
read.analyze.img(fname, gzipped=TRUE, signed=FALSE, verbose=FALSE,
                 warn=-1)

`fname`	Pathname of the Analyze pair of files .img and .hdr without the suffix.
`gzipped`	Allows the import/export of compressed (.gz) files (default = `TRUE`).
`signed`	Only changed to `FALSE` when reading in unsigned single-byte integers.
`verbose`	is a logical variable (default = `FALSE`) that allows text-based feedback during execution of the function.
`warn`	is a number to regulate the display of warnings (default = -1). See `options` for more details.

Both functions utilize the internal readBin and rawToChar command in order to efficiently extract information from a binary file. The types of data are limited to 1- and 2-byte integers, 4-byte floats and 8-byte doubles.

The read.analyze.hdr function returns a list containing all the fields from the header file. The function read.analyze.img returns a multidimensional array taken from the binary imaging data.
