# AtlasReader

This package provides a Python interface for generating coordinate tables and
region labels from statistical MRI images. It is intended for neuroscience
researchers and neuroimaging enthusiasts who are looking for a quick and easy way
to localize and extract relevant peak and cluster information and create
informative and nice looking overview figures.

Please check out our interactive notebook on mybinder.org to see `atlasreader`
in action:

If you are using `atlasreader` in your publication, please cite the following paper:

Notter M. P., Gale D., Herholz P., Markello R. D., Notter-Bielser M.-L., & Whitaker K. (2019). AtlasReader: A Python package to generate coordinate tables, region labels, and informative figures from statistical MRI images. *Journal of Open Source Software, 4(34), 1257*, [https://doi.org/10.21105/joss.01257](https://doi.org/10.21105/joss.01257).

## Installation

This package requires Python >= 3.6. Provided you have `pip` at your disposal,
installing `atlasreader` is as simple as this:

```bash
pip install atlasreader
```

If you want to build `atlasreader` directly from source code, use the
following code:

```bash
git clone https://github.com/miykael/atlasreader.git
cd atlasreader
python setup.py install
```

## Usage

AtlasReader can either be run through the command line interface or directly
within Python. The commands to do so are rather straight forward. Let's say you
want to apply AtlasReader to a statistical image called
`file_name = 'stat_img.nii'`, and only want to keep clusters if they have more
than 5 voxels:

#### Python
```python
from atlasreader import create_output
create_output(file_name, cluster_extent=5)
```

#### Command Line
```bash
atlasreader file_name 5
```

### Outputs

After executing AtlasReader on a given image, four kinds of outputs are generated:

1. An **overview figure** that shows the results within the whole brain at once
   ![Overview Figure](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/miykael/atlasreader/master/paper/fig_overview_figure.png)

2. **For each cluster**, an **informative figure** showing the sagittal, coronal
   and transversal plane centered on the main peak of the cluster
   ![Cluster Figure](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/miykael/atlasreader/master/paper/fig_cluster_figure.png)

3. A **csv file** containing relevant information about the **peak** of each
   cluster. This table contains the cluster association and location of each
   peak, its signal value at this location, the cluster extent (in mm, not in
   number of voxels), as well as the membership of each peak, given a
   particular atlas.

4. A **csv** file containing relevant information about each **cluster**. Table
   showing relevant information for the cluster extent of each ROI. This table
   contains the cluster association and location of each peak, the mean value
   within the cluster, the cluster extent (in mm, not in number of voxels), as
   well as the membership of each cluster, given a particular atlas.

### Additional parameters

`atlasreader.create_output` has many additional parameters that allow you to change the way
the clusters are generated and what kind of outputs are generated:

- **filename**: Niimg_like
    A 3D statistical image.
- **cluster_extent**: int
    Minimum number of contiguous voxels required to consider a cluster in `filename`
- **atlas**: str or list, optional
    Name of atlas(es) to consider for cluster analysis. ***Default***: `'default'`
- **voxel_thresh**: float, optional
    Threshold to apply to `stat_img`.  Use `direction` to specify the
    directionality of the threshold. If a negative number is provided a
    percentile threshold is used instead, where the percentile is determined
    by the equation `100 - voxel_thresh`. ***Default***: `1.96`
- **direction**: str, optional
    Specifies the direction in which `voxel_thresh` should be applied. Possible
    values are `'both'`, `'pos'` or `'neg'`. ***Default***: `'both'`
- **prob_thresh**: int, optional
    Probability (percentage) threshold to apply to `atlas`, if it is
    probabilistic. ***Default***: `5`
- **min_distance**: float, optional
    Specifies the minimum distance (in mm) required between sub-peaks in a
    cluster. If None, sub-peaks will not be examined and only the primary
    cluster peak will be reported. ***Default***: `None`
- **outdir**: str or None, optional
    Path to desired output directory. If None, generated files will be
    saved to the same folder as `filename`. ***Default***: `None`
- **glass_plot_kws**: dict or None, optional
    Additional keyword arguments to pass to `nilearn.plotting.plot_glass_brain`.
    ***Default***: `None`
- **stat_plot_kws**: dict or None, optional
    Additional keyword arguments to pass to `nilearn.plotting.plot_stat_map`.
    ***Default***: `None`

parameters above, see the [example notebook](https://github.com/miykael/atlasreader/blob/master/notebooks/atlasreader.ipynb).
