AFNI 3D ROI Statistics (3dROIstats)

Library: AFNI | Docker Image: brainlife/afni

Function

Extracts statistical summary measures from data within defined ROI masks.

Modality: 3D or 4D NIfTI/AFNI volume plus ROI mask with integer labels.

Typical Use: Extracting mean values from defined regions of interest.

Key Parameters

-mask (ROI mask), -nzmean (mean of non-zero voxels), -nzvoxels (count non-zero voxels), -minmax (min and max)

Key Points

Can handle multi-label ROI masks. Outputs one row per volume, one column per ROI.
