🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so like. elastix version: 5.2.0. she's here, she's serving, she's doing image registration 💅

elastix registers a moving image to a fixed image. the whole registration-process is specified in the parameter file — no cap, everything lives in there.

here are the little flag besties that just print stuff and dip:

• --help, -h — displays this message and exit 🎀
• --version — output version information and exit ⭐
• --extended-version — output extended version information and exit 🌈

---

🧚 Call elastix from the command line with mandatory arguments:

these are NOT optional, bestie, she needs all of them, it's giving required 💀

• -f — fixed image 🖼️
• -m — moving image 🌀
• -out — output directory 📁
• -p — parameter file, and here's the tea: elastix handles 1 or more -p 🔥

---

🎀 Optional extra commands:

the little extras, the accessories to the outfit ✨

• -fMask — mask for fixed image
• -mMask — mask for moving image
• -fp — point set for fixed image
• -mp — point set for moving image
• -t0 — parameter file for initial transform
• -loglevel — set the log level to "off", "error", "warning", or "info" (default),
• -priority — set the process priority to high, abovenormal, normal (default), belownormal, or idle (Windows only option)
• -threads — set the maximum number of threads of elastix

🦋 The parameter file situation (iykyk)

the parameter-file must contain all the information necessary for elastix to run properly. that includes which metric to use, which optimizer, which transform, etc. it must also contain information specific for the metric, optimizer, transform, etc. for a usable parameter-file, see the website 🌐
