Description

Medical scanner images can be converted from DICOM or PAR/REC into the simpler NIfTI format for neuroimaging and research workflows. This is useful for researchers preparing imaging datasets for analysis tools.

Medical images can contain sensitive patient data. De-identify inputs, verify orientation and metadata, and follow institutional rules before sharing converted files.
