How Analyze was Used
“Using Analyze 3.1 (Analyze Direct, Lenexa, Kansas) image analysis software, we performed a two- dimensional (2D) rigid body registration to align the rice noodle fiducials and the outer boundary of the rabbit’s skull in the post-ablation MR image to the reference GE [gradient echo] MR image.”
