nf/tractoflow is a medical imaging pipeline that processes diffusion MRI images of human brains and reconstructs white matter pathways using tractography.
- Read Inputs
- Preprocess DWI
- Preprocess T1
- Segment T1
- Reconstruct diffusion profiles
- Run tractography
Note
If you are new to Nextflow and nf-core, please refer to this page on how to set-up Nextflow. Make sure to test your setup with -profile test before running the workflow on actual data.
Now, you can run the pipeline using:
nextflow run nf/tractoflow \
-profile <docker/singularity/.../institute> \
--input samplesheet.csv \
--outdir <OUTDIR>Warning
Please provide pipeline parameters via the CLI or Nextflow -params-file option. Custom config files including those provided by the -c Nextflow option can be used to provide any configuration except for parameters;
see docs.
