Mia 2.4

Medical Image Analysis GUI.

Description

mia - medical image analysis

This Matlab GUI enables you to do analysis on medical images. A collection of tools are provided to perform slice or volume based analysis. On the other hand the program can be considered as a wrapper of useful previously developed and own matlab tools for medical image processing. The following new features are included in the latest version:

Version 2.4

- read dicom files using dicomdir structure
- there is a "FileInfo" menu item enabling to check the header infos or even the whole dicom header in the case of reading DICOM file
- the image contrast can be set by the "imcontrast" MATLAB GUI double clicking on the colorbar
- improved 3D cursor option with new interface

For more information about the all included options of mia find the "miashistory.doc" file at
 
http://petunia.atomki.hu/~balkay/mia/miashistory.doc

Anonym sample files (dcm, img, mnc, v) can be downloaded from http://petunia.atomki.hu/~balkay/mia/mia_samples.zip

Installing, running: unzip the downloaded file, you will have a mia directory containing the whole utility. Add the mia directory (and ALL subfolders) to your matlab path. Run the mia function.
Before installation delete the previous version of MIA if exists.

• Required Products: Image Processing Toolbox
• MATLAB release: MATLAB 7.0.1 (R14SP1)
• Other requirements: Platform: Tested on Windows and Linux. For sufficient dicom support at least Img.Proc Tlbx 4.0 is suggested. For OpenGL good graphical card is also suggested.

Havent uised it yet, but it will help me a lot for my undergraduate thesis. Medical Physics

[Adam Marcotte]

Has some great features, but also has some bugs, implementation issues and interface deficiencies. None of the text in the slice-o-matic tool displays correctly. Needs a custom-resize function or turn resize off.

[Lars Ewell]

Seems OK. However, our version (6.5) of Matlab (released 6/18/02) apparently has an old version of the 'Toolbox' that is incompatible with this. This fact, unfortunately, required me to downgrade my rating.

[Shoan Kale]

This is an excellent program in terms of functionality. Some complaints: cannot save as a MINC file while all other formats are no problem; ROI stat functions and 3D cursor are not stable. Very good piece of software otherwise.

[Shuhai Chen]

I don't know how to run. please give some examples

[DERRAZ Foued]

it can be developed to support others alalysis process

[Jackson Shen]

Excellent tools

I get this error , what do i do to run ?
It is encouraging once it starts going , i can test it with MRI images , angio , with pics from Doctors with me.
I will definitely give a feed back and analysis report of certain thigns, with inputs from doctors , if something needs to be further developed or required for is. Please help me with this error , or what iam i doing wrong, iam trying to access the file from menu, but then i get this error
Regards

Comments to Malikireddy Krishnareddy: I think you did not add the "mia directory" (and ALL subfolders) to your matlab path. See the description above.

[Torsten Ruest]

Hi,
when I try to open an ANALYZE image, the Matlab command window displays the following:
 
Warning: slider control requires that Min be less than Max
Control will not be rendered until all of its parameter values are valid.

Another little window opens with the followong message:

Unknown Data Type (Precision?)

Another question: I have FSL stats output images (one negative, the other positive) and would like to overlay them on an anatomical image to get a continous color bar of the significant voxels. Is this possible?

Cheers,

[Laszlo Balkay]

Comments to Torsten Ruest:
Hi,

opening error: I think there would be problem about the file format. To see more details you should send me your analyse format images to [e-mail] (the attached file can be up to 30Mb)

Overlying images: principally there is possibility to overly images with mia, but I did not check it at any situation. Please send me your MRI image, also.

I hope this help,

Laszlo

thanks Lazlo ..

[Suneel Battula]

Hi

The tool looks great but i havent been able to analyze it. when i try opening DICOM files it gives me the following error...could you let me know if I have to make any changes to the code?

Thanks

Comments to Suneel Battula: I think you did not add the "mia directory" (and ALL subfolders) to your matlab path. See the Description of Mia.

[Asif Rizwan]

Hi, I am also facing the same problem as Suneel Battula. I copied the mia dir in the work file. It gives error messages. Where should I copy the dcm files?

[Laszlo Balkay]

Comments to Asif Rizwan: I think you did not add the "mia directory" (and ALL SUBFOLDER) to your matlab path (same problem as with Suneel Battula). See the Description of Mia. Copying the "mia dir" to your "matlab work" dir is NOT ENOUGH.

[Nam-Beom Kim]

when i was trying to open '*.img', error message shows me like this; " No image file was selected. The supported files are:
*.img;*.mnc;*.ima;*.cub;*.mat; " i tried to severals times with different file formats, But the result was always same. what did i do wrong?

[Laszlo Balkay]

Comment to Nam-Beom Kim: The *.img file should be an analyse formatted image file. Do you have *.hdr also next to the *.img file? Another reason would be: the lower-upper case extension is not identical for mia (*.IMG might be wrong). If you could not fix the problem, please send me your files via email (my email server accepts files up to 15Mb)

I hope this help,

Laszlo

[ucd puri]

Hi , I am not an expert in matlab, just learning how to make a Matlab based image analysis GUI for my work. I dont know how to do the following step. please help Regards n thanks Tanuj
Add the mia directory (and ALL subfolders) to your matlab path

[Trevor Cooper]

- Open the MATLAB built-in documentation (type doc at the >> prompt, select "Product Help" from the "Help" menu or press F1). Depending on your platform one/all will work.
- Display the Help Navigator in the Help window by selecting "Help Navigator" from the "View" menu if it isn't already visible on the left of the Help window.
- Select the "Contents" tab in the Help Navigator if it's not already selected.
- Expand the "MATLAB" node.
- Expand the "Desktop Tools and Development Environment" node.
- Expand the "Workspace, Search Path, and File Operations" node.
- Expand the "Search Path" node.
- Select the "Viewing and Setting the Search Path" node.
- Everything you need to know is there in great detail.

Good luck.

[ucd puri]

woooo, awsome, thats very good, thank you ver much...

[Kiran]

Hi

Whether this tool will read the Ultrasound raw image data
and is it possible to rotate the 3D data////

[Laszlo Balkay]

Comment to Kiran:
I never try 3D US data. Is this a dicom format?

[Preeti]

please give some examples.

[Abdelghani Djebbari]

Good work!

[Yawar Rehman]

gr8 work ... can u tell me that from where can i get emma package to dl ... the error occurs when i select a .mnc format file.
can u plz help
"MEX-files with .dll extensions will not execute in a future version of MATLAB.
For reading minc file you should install the EMMA package from MNI."

[Laszlo Balkay]

Comment to Yawar Rehman:
Sorry, I was just reading your questions.
I wrote a new function to read the mnc format files based on the NETCDF bultin matlab library. If you intrested in I will send you ([e-mail])

[Jin]

good work!

[Silvina]

Hi Laszlo,
I have the same problem that Yawar mentioned previously. Is there a way to read minc files without the EMMA package?
Thanks a lot!

[Crtistian Capannini]

The documentation is not available please put the documentation online thanks!!! i need some information about sliceomatic, 3dcursor and 3d reconstruction of mri thanks!

[Laszlo Balkay]

I have corrected the link of the documentation

[Vino]

Hi Laszlo,
   I have some problem in opening the DICOM images or DICOMDIR....I am getting the following error

Error using ==> images\private\dicom_set_mmeta_encoding. Invalid transfer syntax UID "1.2.840.10008.1.2.4.91"

What this error mean..? can u plz help...
