Re: [Freesurfer] MRIread and RAS orientation

I’m pretty sure that the Matlab code does not reorient. Cheers, Eugenio

When the C codes read in images, no automatically transformation is done.

I think you can verify it by checking several [c, r, s] locations of both images loaded with MRIread(). I think c and r are reversed in MATLAB. And the index starts from 1.

External Email - Use Caution Hello,

I have two nifti files that are both in the same MNI space, the former of which is saved in LAS orientation while the other in RAS orientation (as showcased by the “Orientation” field of mri_info). I just wanted to verify: When loading both on MATLAB using MRIread, both of their volumes are automatically loaded (or transformed in the case of the first file) in the same RAS orientation, right (using the vox2ras transformation)?

Thanks in advance!

Best, Panos
