NAME
mia-3dgetslice - Extract slices from a 3D image.
SYNOPSIS
mia-3dgetslice -i <in-file> -o <out-file> [options]
DESCRIPTION
mia-3dgetslice This program is used to extract 2D slices from a 3D data set and store them
in separate files. Output files will be numbered according to their slice index.
OPTIONS
-i --in-file=(input, required); io
input image(s) to be filtered
For supported file types see PLUGINS:3dimage/io
-o --out-file=(output, required); io
output image(s). If number != 1 than this is used as a base name and should
be given without extension since this will be based on the '--type' option.
If number=1 then this exact file name will be used.
For supported file types see PLUGINS:2dimage/io
-t --type=png
output file type for number != 1
Supported values are:( bmp, datapool, dicom, exr, jpg, png, raw, tif,
vista, )
-s --start=0
start slice number
-n --number=1
number of slices (all=0)
--ndigits=4
minimum number of digits of the file name numbers (if n != 1)
-d --dir=xy
slice direction (xy=axial, xz=coronal, yz=saggital)
xy ‐ get xy (axial) slice
xz ‐ get xz (coronal) slice
yz ‐ get yz (saggital) slice
Help & Info
-V --verbose=warning
verbosity of output, print messages of given level and higher priorities.
Supported priorities starting at lowest level are:
trace ‐ Function call trace
debug ‐ Debug output
info ‐ Low level messages
message ‐ Normal messages
warning ‐ Warnings
fail ‐ Report test failures
error ‐ Report errors
fatal ‐ Report only fatal errors

Processing
--threads=-1
Maxiumum number of threads to use for processing,This number should be lower
or equal to the number of logical processor cores in the machine. (-1:
automatic estimation).
