SYNOPSISupet2mnc [<options>] <infile> <outfile.mnc>
upet2mnc-help
DESCRIPTION
The upet2mnc command is used to convert Concorde microPET format files
to MINC format.
The microPET format consists of two files, a binary image and a text
header. The header file generally has the same name as the image with
the suffix ".hdr" appended. Normally you can specify the name of
either the binary image or the text header file on the command line.
However, both of the files should be in the same directory for the con‐
verter to locate both files correctly.
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.
-head Orient the image according to typical neurological conventions,
with the Y axis oriented from the posterior to anterior, the Z
axis oriented from inferior to superior, and X oriented from

-body Orient the image such that the Y axis is oriented from superior
to inferior, the Z axis is oriented from posterior to anterior,
and X from patient left to patient right.
