brainprep.interfaces.nextbrain¶

brainprep.interfaces.nextbrain(t1_file, output_dir, entities)[source]¶

Uses NextBrain probabilistic atlas of the human brain, to segment ~300 distinct ROIs per hemisphere.

Segmentation relies on a Bayesian algorithm and is thus robust against changes in MRI pulse sequence (e.g., T1-weighted, T2-weighted, FLAIR, etc).

Parameters:

t1_fileFile: Path to the input T1w image file.
output_dirDirectory: FreeSurfer working directory containing all the subjects.
entitiesdict: A dictionary of parsed BIDS entities including modality.

Returns:

commandlist[str]

NextBrain parcellation command-lines.

outputstuple[File]

left_seg_file : File - Generated left hemisphere NextBrain atlas.
right_seg_file : File - Generated right hemisphere NextBrain atlas.
