dirorder
Synopsis
Reorder a set of directions to ensure near-uniformity upon truncation
Usage
dirorder [ options ] input output
input: the input directions file
output: the output directions file
Description
The intent of this command is to reorder a set of gradient directions such that if a scan is terminated prematurely, at any point, the acquired directions will still be close to optimally distributed on the half-sphere.
Options
-cartesian Output the directions in Cartesian coordinates [x y z] instead of [az el].
Standard options
-info display information messages.
-quiet do not display information messages or progress status; alternatively, this can be achieved by setting the MRTRIX_QUIET environment variable to a non-empty string.
-debug display debugging messages.
-force force overwrite of output files (caution: using the same file as input and output might cause unexpected behaviour).
-nthreads number use this number of threads in multi-threaded applications (set to 0 to disable multi-threading).
