Function: getSliceOrientation()

ts
function getSliceOrientation(vol, sliceType): string;

Defined in: src/volume/orthogonalSlices.ts:187

Get the anatomical orientation of a slice type for the given volume.

Parameters

vol

NeuroVol

The volume to check orientation for

sliceType

"axial" | "coronal" | "sagittal"

Type of slice: 'axial', 'sagittal', or 'coronal'

Returns

string

Anatomical orientation string (e.g., 'LR-PA' for axial in LPI space)

Remarks

This function returns the anatomical orientation of the 2D slice axes based on the volume's coordinate system. For example:

  • Axial in LPI: shows Left-Right and Posterior-Anterior
  • Sagittal in LPI: shows Posterior-Anterior and Inferior-Superior
  • Coronal in LPI: shows Left-Right and Inferior-Superior
