TRANSFORMIX(1)

🎀 NAME 🎀

transformix — the manual page for transformix, version: 5.2.0 💖 (yes bestie, it really says that, we're keeping it)

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so. transformix version: 5.2.0. hi. hello. welcome to the girlies-who-register-images club 💅

transformix applies a transform on an input image and/or generates a deformation field. no cap. and where does it get the transform from? the transform-parameter file, obviously. that's the whole vibe.

• --help, -h — displays this message and exit 🫶 (it's giving "help me help you")
• --version — output version information and exit ⭐

🌸 Call transformix from the command line with mandatory arguments 🌸

like, these are non-negotiable. main character requirements fr fr:

• -out — output directory 📁
• -tp — transform-parameter file, only 1 ☝️ (one. single. one. don't be greedy)

🦋 Optional extra commands 🦋

the little extras that make it ✨sparkle✨:

• -in — input image to deform 🖼️
• -def — file containing input-image points; the point are transformed according to the specified transform-parameter file. use "-def all" to transform all points from the input-image, which effectively generates a deformation field 🌈
• -jac — use "-jac all" to generate an image with the determinant of the spatial Jacobian 🔥
• -jacmat — use "-jacmat all" to generate an image with the spatial Jacobian matrix at each voxel 👑
• -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 transformix 🧵

At least one of the options "-in", "-def", "-jac", or "-jacmat" should be given. not optional, bestie. pick one. pick several. just don't pick none 😭

The transform-parameter file must contain all the information necessary for transformix to run properly. that includes which transform to use, with which parameters, etc. it's giving "everything, all at once." for a usable transform-parameter file, run elastix, and inspect the output file "TransformParameters.0.txt". 🍓
