Source template brain (e.g. IS2) that data is currently in.
reference
Target template brain (e.g. IS2) that data should be
transformed into.
via
optional intermediate brain to use when there is no direct
bridging registration.
imagedata
Whether x should be treated as image data (presently
only supported as a file on disk or 3D object vertices - see details).
checkboth
When TRUE will look for registrations in both
directions. See details.
...
extra arguments to pass to xform.
Details
NB the sample, reference and via brains can
either be templatebrain objects or a character string containing the
short name of the template e.g. "IS2".
The significance of the imagedata and checkboth arguments is
that CMTK registrations are not directly invertible although they can be
numerically inverted in most cases (unless there are regions where folding
occurred). For image data, numerical inversion is much slower.
You can control whether you want to allow inverse registrations manually by
setting checkboth explicitly. Otherwise when checkboth=NULL
the following default behaviour occurs:
when via=NULLcheckboth=T but a warning will be given
if an inversion must be used.
when via is specified then checkboth=T but a warning
will be given if an inversion must be used.
