| |
| − | One of the best tools available. Command line and graphical versions available, performs conversions, basic transforms, and a few other useful things. Command line is especially useful for doing scripted conversions. FOR EXAMPLE: use to convert Nifti .nii to analyze in a way that SPM will read (requires flipping).
