NAME

       teem-tend - Diffusion Image Processing and Analysis

DESCRIPTION

              "tend" is a command-line interface to much of the functionality in "ten",

              a  C  library  for  diffusion  image  processing.  Ten is one library in the "Teem"
              collection    of    libraries.    More    information    about    Teem    is     at
              <http://teem.sourceforge.net>.

              Users are strongly encouraged to join the teem-users mailing list:

              <http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/teem-users>. This is the primary forum
              for feedback, questions, and feature requests.

              Like "unu", another Teem command-line binary, it is often useful to chain

              together invocations of tend with pipes,  as  in  the  following,  which  estimates
              tensors  from  DWIs,  takes a slice of the tensor volume, computes the standard RGB
              colormap of the principal eigenvector, and then quantizes it to an 8-bit PNG:

              tend estim -i dwi.nhdr -B kvp -knownB0 true \

              | tend slice -a 2 -p 30 \ | tend evecrgb -c 0 -a cl2 -gam 1.2 \ | unu quantize -b 8
              -min 0 -max 1 -o z30-rgb.png

              If tend repeatedly proves itself useful for your research, an

              acknowledgment  to  that  effect  in your publication would be greatly appreciated,
              such as (for LaTeX): "Dataset processing performed with the {\tt tend} tool part of
              the {\tt Teem} toolkit available at {\tt $<$http://teem.sf.net$>$}"

       The  full  documentation  for  Teem  is  maintained  as a Texinfo manual.  If the info and
       teem-tend programs are properly installed at your site, the command

              info teem-tend

       should give you access to the complete manual.
