Paint

Link to code

Bases: FSCommand

Wrapped executable: mrisp_paint.

This program is useful for extracting one of the arrays (“a variable”) from a surface-registration template file. The output is a file containing a surface-worth of per-vertex values, saved in “curvature” format. Because the template data is sampled to a particular surface mesh, this conjures the idea of “painting to a surface”.

Examples

>>> from nipype.interfaces.freesurfer import Paint
>>> paint = Paint()
>>> paint.inputs.in_surf = 'lh.pial'
>>> paint.inputs.template = 'aseg.mgz'
>>> paint.inputs.averages = 5
>>> paint.inputs.out_file = 'lh.avg_curv'
>>> paint.cmdline
'mrisp_paint -a 5 aseg.mgz lh.pial lh.avg_curv'
