Installation

Using conda is recommended:

conda create --name resenv python=3.8 --yes && conda activate resenv
pip install light-the-torch
ltt install torch
pip install git+https://github.com/fepegar/resector
resect --help

Usage

resect t1.nii.gz gif_parcellation.nii.gz t1_resected.nii.gz t1_resection_label.nii.gz

TorchIO, which is installed with resector, can be used to download some sample images:

T1=`python -c "import torchio as tio; print(tio.datasets.FPG().t1.path)"`
GIF=`python -c "import torchio as tio; print(tio.datasets.FPG().seg.path)"`
resect $T1 $GIF t1_resected.nii.gz t1_resection_label.nii.gz

Run resect --help for more options.
