Python bindings to various neuroimaging data formats


NiBabel provides read and write access to some common medical and neuroimaging file formats, including: ANALYZE (plain, SPM99, SPM2), GIFTI, NIfTI1, MINC, as well as PAR/REC.

This package also provides a commandline tools:

  • dicomfs - FUSE filesystem on top of a directory with DICOMs
  • nib-ls - ‘ls’ for neuroimaging files
  • parrec2nii - for conversion of PAR/REC to NIfTI images
