mia-3ddistance(1) Evaluate the distance between two binary shapes.

SYNOPSIS

mia-3ddistance -i <in-file> -r <ref-file> -o <out-file> [options]

DESCRIPTION

mia-3ddistance This program takes two binary masks as input and evaluates the distance of one mask with respect to the other in voxel space. The output is given as text file with the coordinates of the source voxels and their distance to the reference mask. Correction for voxel size must be done after processing.

OPTIONS

File IO

-i --in-file=(input, required); string
input image(s) that contain the source pixel mask
-r --ref-file=(input, required); string
reference mask to evaluate the distance from
-o --out-file=(output, required); string
output file name
