[Homer-users] converting Hitachi and NIRx files to .nirs files

[David Boas]

Dear All,
I wanted to let you know that some useful conversion files have been 
produced. A conversion for Hitachi files was produced by Rebecca Dewey. 
Rob Cooper created one for NIRx files. Links to the scripts are provided 
below. They put this in the nitrc.org utility which is a very convenient 
way to distribute neuroimaging tools and resources.

Converting Hitachi files to .nirs files
A Matlab script to convert the raw .csv Hitachi ETG4000 output file into 
a .nirs file for use with Homer2 can be obtained at 
http://www.nitrc.org/projects/hitachi2nirs. Created by Rebecca Dewey.

Converting NIRx files to .nirs files
NIRx2nirs is a matlab script which takes near-infrared spectroscopy data 
recorded by NIRx system(s) and converts it to a .nirs file format for 
use with the HOMER2 NIRS processing package. It can be obtained at 
http://www.nitrc.org/projects/nirx2nirs/ . Created by Robert Cooper.
