Description
This tool takes MRI datasets in the file formats (.dcm, .nii, .nii.gz or .mha) as the input.
Two Python scripts (QC.py and QCF.py) are used to generate several tags and noise/information measurements for quality assessment. These scripts save the calculated measures in a .tsv file as well as generate .png thumbnails for all images in a subject volume. These are then fed to .js scripts to create the user interface (index.html) output. A schematic illustrating the framework of the tool is as follows.
Prerequisites
The current version of the tool has been tested on the Python 3.6+
You must have pipenv installed on your environment to run MRQy locally. It will pull all the dependencies listed in the diagram.
You can also likely install the python requirements using something like:
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
Running
For local development, test that the code is functional
MRQy % pipenv shell
(mrqy) MRQy% pipenv install .
(mrqy) MRQy% python -m mrqy.QC --help
The output should be
usage: QC.py [-h] output_folder_name [inputdir [inputdir ...]]
positional arguments:
output_folder_name the subfolder name on the
'...\UserInterface\Data\output_folder_name' directory.
inputdir input foldername consists of *.mha (*.nii or *.dcm)
files. For example: 'E:\Data\Rectal\input_data_folder'
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
Standard usage is to run QC.py output_folder_name “input directory” i.e.
python QC.py output_folder_name "E:\Data\Rectal\RectalCancer_Multisite\input_data_folder"
There is no need to make a subfolder in the Data directory, just specify its name in the command as in the above code.
Every action will be printed in the output console.
The thumbnail images in the format of .png will be saved in "...\UserInterface\Data\output_folder_name" with its original filename as the subfolder name. Afterward, double click "index.html" (on e.g. "D:\Downloads\MRQy-master\UserInterface") to open front-end user interface, and select the respective results.tsv file from the correct location e.g. "D:\Downloads\MRQy-master\UserInterface\Data\output_folder_name" directory.
Contribution guidelines
Testing
MRQy % pipenv shell
