Create NIFTI Format Metadata Object

Creates a NIFTIMetaInfo object containing format-specific metadata for NIFTI format neuroimaging files.

Usage

NIFTIMetaInfo(descriptor, nifti_header)

Arguments

descriptor

NIFTIFormat object specifying file format details

nifti_header

List containing NIFTI header information

Value

A NIFTIMetaInfo object

Details

Create NIFTIMetaInfo Object

The NIFTIMetaInfo object extends MetaInfo with NIFTI-specific features:

• NIFTI header fields (qform, sform matrices)

• Data scaling (slope, intercept)

• File organization (separate vs. single file)

• Orientation information

Validation ensures:

• Valid NIFTI format

• Consistent dimensions

• Valid transformation matrices

• Proper data scaling

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
# Read NIFTI header
header <- readNIftiHeader("brain.nii")

# Create format descriptor
fmt <- NIFTIFormat()

# Create metadata
meta <- NIFTIMetaInfo(fmt, header)

# Check dimensions
dim(meta)
} # }
