CSItools - A Matlab toolbox for processing magnetic resonance spectroscopic images (MRSI)
B. M. Kelm
CSItools is a Matlab toolbox for the processing of mangnetic resonance spectroscopic images (MRSI). CSItools comes with the CLARET graphical user interface (GUI) that can be used in cinical research prototypes for evaluating new quantification and/or classification approaches. Since CSItools has a modular design it is most suitable for batch processing huge amounts of data with user-defined Matlab scripts. CSItools supports various input formats among which are DICOM, Siemens RDA and Phillips SDAT. It offers quantification using the HSVD method and NLS fitting (nonlinear least squares) using Voigt metabolite models as well as measured or simulated metabolite templates. Many more functions useful for the processing of MRSI are provided. For an overview type 'help Contents' in the CSItools installation directory. CSItools requires the Matlab optimization as well as the image processing toolboxes. In order to compile the included mex-files, a C/C++ compiler (MSVC, gcc) as well as the DCMTK library (https://dicom.offis.de/) are required.
