(second_inversion, skullstrip_mask, background_distance=5.0, output_type='dura_region', save_data=False, overwrite=False, output_dir=None, file_name=None)[source]¶ MP2RAGE dura estimation
Filters a MP2RAGE brain image to obtain a probability map of dura matter.
Parameters: - second_inversion (niimg) – Second inversion image derived from MP2RAGE sequence
- skullstrip_mask (niimg) – Skullstripping mask defining the approximate region including the brain
- background_distance (float) – Maximum distance within the mask for dura (default is 5.0 mm)
- output_type ({'dura_region','boundary','dura_prior','bg_prior',) – ‘intens_prior’} Type of output result (default is ‘dura_region’)
- save_data (bool) – Save output data to file (default is False)
- overwrite (bool) – Overwrite existing results (default is False)
- output_dir (str, optional) – Path to desired output directory, will be created if it doesn’t exist
- file_name (str, optional) – Desired base name for output files with file extension (suffixes will be added)
Returns: Dictionary collecting outputs under the following keys (suffix of output files in brackets)
- result (niimg): Dura probability image (_dura-proba)
Return type: Notes
