NAME

       mia-3drigidreg - Linear registration of 3D images.

SYNOPSIS

       mia-3drigidreg -i <in-image> -r <ref-image> -o <out-image> [options]

DESCRIPTION

       mia-3drigidreg  This  program implements the registration of two gray scale 3D images. The
       transformation is not penalized, therefore, one should only  use  translation,  rigid,  or
       affine  transformations as target and run mia-3dnonrigidreg of nonrigid registration is to
       be achieved.
