NAME
       mnc2nii	-  convert  a  MINC format file to a NIfTI-1 or Analyze format
       file.

SYNOPSIS
       mnc2nii [<options>] <infile.mnc> <outfile.mnc>

       mnc2nii -help


DESCRIPTION
       The mnc2nii command is used to convert  MINC  format  files  to	either
       NIfTI-1	or  Analyze  format.   The NIfTI-1 format was developed by the
       members of the Neuroinformatics	Technology  Initiative's  Data	Format
       Working	Group  (DFWG).	 The  NIfTI-1  format  is  based upon the Mayo
       Clinic's Analyze 7.5 format.

       The name of the program is derived from the  common  filename  suffixes
       used for NIfTI-1 and MINC files.	 NIfTI-1 defines two possible formats,
       a "header plus raw image" 2-file format, and a single-file format  that
       includes	 both  header information and the image data.  As with Analyze
       7.5, the 2-file format consists of one file with the suffix ".hdr"  and
       another file with the extension ".img".	In NIfTI-1 single-file format,
       the two files may be combined into a single file with a ".nii" filename
       suffix.

       In  addition  to the NIfTI-1 formats, mnc2nii can convert MINC files to
       the Analyze 7.5 format.

OPTIONS
       Note that options can be specified in abbreviated form (as long as they
       are unique) and can be given anywhere on the command line.

Output file format
       -dual  Save file in NIfTI-1 two-file format (.hdr and .img)

       -ASCII Save file in non-standard NIfTI-1 ASCII file format

       -nii   Save file in NIfTI-1 single-file format (.nii)

       -analyze
	      Save file in Analyze 7.5 compatible format

Output voxel format
       -float Save voxels in 32-bit floating point format

       -double
	      Save voxels in 64-bit floating point format

       -byte  Save voxels in 8-bit integer format

       -short Save voxels in 16-bit integer format

       -int   Save voxels in 32-bit integer format

       -signed
	      Save voxels in signed (2's complement) integer format

       -unsigned
	      Save voxels in unsigned integer format

Other options
       -noscanrange
	      Don't scan data to determine valid range.

       -quiet Quiet  operation	-  do not print progress or debugging informa‐
	      tion.

Generic options for all commands
       -help  Print summary of command-line options and abort

       -version
	      Print the program and library versions and abort

KNOWN BUGS
       Current handling of  NIfTI-1  qform  and	 sform	coordinate  transforms
       should  probably	 be  revised  as the NIfTI group clarifies the correct
       usage of these fields.
