NAME

       mincextract - dump a hyperslab of MINC file data

SYNOPSIS

       mincextract [options] mincfile

DESCRIPTION

       mincextract  dumps  a  chunk  of  MINC  file data to standard output in the format of your
       choice.

OPTIONS

       -ascii Write out data as ascii strings (default)

       -byte  Write out data as 8-bit integers

       -short Write out data as 16-bit integers

       -int   Write out data as 32-bit integers

       -long  Superseded by -int

       -float Write out data as single precision floating-point values

       -double
              Write out data as double precision floating-point values

       -filetype
              Write out data in the type of the file

       -signed
              Write out signed data (applies only to integer types)

       -unsigned
              Write out unsigned data (applies only to integer types)

       -range low high
              Specify the range of output values

       -normalize
              Normalize integer pixel values to file max and min (Default)

       -nonormalize
              Turn off pixel normalization

       -big-endian
              Request big-endian (most significant byte first) format.

       -little-endian
              Request little-endian (least significant byte first) format.

       -image_range low high
              Specify the range of real image values for normalization

       -image_minimum min
              Specify the minimum real image value for normalization

       -image_maximum max
              Specify the maximum real image value for normalization

       -start indexvector
              Specifies corner of hyperslab (C conventions  for  indices).   Indices  are  either
              separated by spaces (enclosed by quotes) or commas (no quotes required).

       -count indexvector
              Specifies  edge  lengths  of  hyperslab  to  read.  Indices are either separated by
              spaces (enclosed by quotes) or commas (no quotes required).

       -positive_direction
              Flip images to always have positive direction.

       -negative_direction
              Flip images to always have negative direction.

       -any_direction
              Do not flip images (Default).

       +xdirection
              Flip images to give positive xspace:step value (left-to-right).

       -xdirection
              Flip images to give negative xspace:step value (right-to-left).

       -xanydirection
              Don't flip images along x-axis (default).

       +ydirection
              Flip images to give positive yspace:step value (post-to-ant).

       -ydirection
              Flip images to give negative yspace:step value (ant-to-post).

       -yanydirection
              Don't flip images along y-axis (default).

       +zdirection
              Flip images to give positive zspace:step value (inf-to-sup).

       -zdirection
              Flip images to give negative zspace:step value (sup-to-inf).

       -zanydirection
              Don't flip images along z-axis (default).

       -help  Print summary of command-line options and exit.

       -version
              Print the program's version number and exit.
