dump_header

Purpose:

Print header contents on screen. Basic information (dimensions, pixels sizes etc.) are always printed. In the verbose mode, key parameters in the native header are also printed. The elements of the native header that are printed depends on the file formats.

Usage

dump_header [-hs] filename
  • -s, --scan: If dicom, read all files in the directory to ensure that all information is accurate. Does nothing for other file formats.

File formats

    analyze, brik, dicom, cub, tes, GE I.xxx, GE P-file

Example

dump_header S2_2DFAST (a dicom directory. See the figure below for the output.)

Note

The default action is to write formatted text to the screen. It will write plain text if the output is redirected to a file.
