Hello folks,

In anticipation of a near-future rollout of versions of your
favorite Matlab scripts that will now natively speak BXH,
current versions of the C tools for accessing and manipulating
BXH files are compiled for Windows and available in
\\gall\Programs\BXH

The programs you are likely to find most useful are:


  • bxhabsorb

    This will take files in any of Analyze, Signa5, XIMG, PFile
    header + reconstructed raw data, or DICOM, and create BXH
    files that "encapsulate" them, pointing to the pixel data
    within the given files, and perhaps extracting some metadata
    from image headers into the BXH file.

  • bxh2analyze

    This program, courtesy of Jeff Hoerle, is the beginning of
    a series of functions that will do the opposite of bxhabsorb
    (bxhexport?).

  • extractimagedata

    Essentially 'bxh2raw'. This will take a BXH file, extract
    the image data it points to, and write this data to another
    output file, sans header. The type of the data in the output
    file is the same as in the original data.

  • snap

    A natively-compiled version of Snap/IRIS from Guido Gerig's
    group that now supports the BXH header, thanks to Pierre
    Fillard. The interface is perhaps more clunky than other
    versions of IRIS you may have used, and that will probably
    remain until people with more GUI and Windows expertise can
    fix it.



Run any of these programs (except snap) without arguments to
get a help screen.

Enjoy!

These tools have been updated to the latest versions, and are now linked with DLLs (included in the bin directory). Let me know of any problems.
