# BrkRaw: Comprehensive tool to access Bruker PV dataset | ||
## Version: 0.3 | ||
|
||
### Description | ||
|
||
The 'BrkRaw' python module is designed to be a more comprehensive tool for the preclinical MRI community for accessing and | ||
utilizing raw data. And since the converter is front-line tools for medical imaging, the functionality is developed to cover | ||
the requirements from the various user, including MRI system operator, maintainer, MR sequence developer, imaging researcher, | ||
and data scientist. In addition to these, we had put extra efforts to preserve the metadata as well as provide tools to help | ||
organize the data structure into a shareable format that suggested from the open science community for pursuing | ||
reproducible science [BIDS](https://bids.neuroimaging.io). Therefore, the module designed not only can be used for the NifTi converter, | ||
but also provides command-line tools and python API for previewing, organizing and archiving data, and parsing metadata, | ||
accessing the data as users convenient object type ([nibabel](https://nipy.org/nibabel/) or | ||
## BrkRaw: A comprehensive tool to access raw data of Bruker Biospin Preclinical MRI Systems | ||
#### Version: 0.3.3 | ||
|
||
#### Description | ||
|
||
The ‘BrkRaw’ is a python module designed to provide a comprehensive tool to access raw data acquired from | ||
Bruker Biospin preclinical MRI scanner. This module is also compatible with the zip compressed data | ||
to enable use of the archived data directly. | ||
The module is comprised of four components, including graphical user interface (GUI), command-line tools, | ||
high-level and low-level python APIs. | ||
- For the GUI, we focused on improving convenience for checking metadata and previewing the reconstructed image. | ||
- For the command-line tool, we focused on providing tools for converting, organizing, archiving, and managing data. | ||
The command-line tool also provides easy-to-use function to convert large set of raw data into organized structure | ||
according to [BIDS](https://bids.neuroimaging.io). | ||
- For the high-level python API, we focused on enhancing the accessibility of reconstructed image data with | ||
preserved image orientation and metadata for the image analysis. | ||
It compatible users' convenient objects type ([nibabel](https://nipy.org/nibabel/) or | ||
[SimpleITK](https://simpleitk.readthedocs.io/en/master/gettingStarted.html#python-binary-files)) | ||
without the conversion step. The module is compatible with the ZIP file format, so no need to uncompress the file to access data. | ||
The goal of this project is providing easy-to-access of the Bruker's PVdatasets. | ||
The major features of this module are as follows. | ||
|
||
|
||
- Reliable converting function with | ||
- preserving the subject position and orientation to converted the NifTi1 file. | ||
- correction of animal orientation based on the species and position. (Anterior of subject is Anterior). | ||
- providing fMRI and DTI study friendly features: slice-order update on the header, Diffusion parameter file generation. | ||
- BIDS(v1.2.2) support: parameter file generation with custom syntax, automatic generation of the folder structure. | ||
- Capability of quick image validation by | ||
- providing the GUI tool for preview the dataset without conversion. | ||
- the command-line tool function for previewing metadata of the dataset for each scan. | ||
- Data management tool 'brk-backup' | ||
- Data management tool 'brk-backup' for archiving and performing inspection the backup status. | ||
- Robust and easy-to-use python API for developers, including JCAMP-DX parser. | ||
- Object-oriented robust dataset parser. | ||
- compressed data readability (compatible with .zip and .PVdatasets format). | ||
- the python API also providing data handler object through either nibabel and simpleITK to make convenient to the researcher can implement their own code. | ||
|
||
|
||
### Update notes: | ||
##### BrkRaw v0.3.2 | ||
|
||
1. Improved BIDS converter. | ||
- Bruker FieldMap will be accommodated into the BIDS excel sheets. With new feature, bids_converter separates fieldmap and magnitude image. | ||
- Multi-echo sequenced data will be converted as separate format. | ||
2. Bug patches. | ||
- GUI visualization or crash issues related to certain conditions are patched. | ||
- Matrix size instability has been patched, except multi-echo, all data will be converted to 3D + frame | ||
- DTI slope correction issue is patched. | ||

|
||
### Compatibility | ||
- Cross-platform compatibility (OSX, Linux, Windows 10) | ||
- Best work on Python 3.7.6, does not support Python 2. | ||
- Dependency: shleeh>=0.0.4, nibabel>=3.0.2, SimpleITK>=1.2.4, | ||
numpy>=1.18.0, pandas>=1.0.0, pillow>=7.1.1, | ||
tqdm>=4.45.0, openpyxl>=3.0.3, xlrd>=1.0.0 | ||
|
||
### Installation | ||
- We are highly suggesting to use **Python 3.7** | ||
|
||
#### Requirement | ||
- The installed Python must be compiled properly, | ||
If you use pyenv and are having any issue with python please refer following link: | ||
[Common Build Problems in PyENV](https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv/wiki/common-build-problems) | ||
- To use gui feature, the installed python should compiled with tkinter module. | ||
- You can test the tkinter installation with below command on your shell. | ||
```angular2html | ||
$ python -m tkinter -c 'tkinter._test()' | ||
``` | ||
|
||
- In Mac OSX, Homebrew installed tcl-tk and pyenv may have an issue with tkinter, please refer following link to solve the issue: | ||
[Issue with Homebrew installed tcl-tk on pyenv](https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv/issues/1375) | ||
|
||
#### Install via PyPI | ||
```angular2html | ||
$ pip install bruker | ||
``` | ||
without the conversion step. | ||
- For the low-level python API, we focused on providing a consistent method to access raw Bruker data including | ||
parameter and binary files with the python compatible datatype while keeping the sake of simplicity. | ||
|
||
#### Install via Github | ||
```angular2html | ||
$ pip install git+https://github.com/dvm-shlee/bruker | ||
``` | ||
|
||

**We've tested our converter using the sample dataset from [Bruker2Nifti_QA](https://gitlab.com/naveau/bruker2nifti_qa) | ||
and the results showed correct geometry and orientation for all datasets.** | ||
- We are still looking for more datasets showing orientation issue, if you have any shareable dataset, please contact | ||
author. | ||
|
||
#### Known issues | ||
- The converter has not been tested the Paravision 360 | ||
- Most of the GUI issues could be related to tkinter, please follow the above instruction first before open a issue. | ||
- Few update committed since the first stable version release, if you have any issue, please try the latest version. | ||
- For other unexpected issues, please use the issue channel. | ||
- There will be potential bug that occurred with new version updated, please let developer knows those issue by openning | ||
issue channel. Thank you for your contribution! | ||
|
||
## Usage | ||
### Command-line tool (brkraw) | ||
#### Quick access of metadata | ||
- Printing out dataset information | ||
```angular2html | ||
$ brkraw summary <session path or compressed dataset> | ||
``` | ||
![brkraw summary](imgs/brkraw_print_summary.png) | ||
**Example of printed out dataset information** | ||
|
||
#### The Legacy version of NifTi1 conversion | ||
- This method has been inherited from old brk2nii and [PyBruker](https://pypi.org/project/pyBruker) which | ||
has been removed from repository and is not existing anymore. This function is useful if you want to convert | ||
whole dataset without need to considering data structure, or only needs to convert specific scan and reco. | ||
- Convert a whole session, (adding option '-b' or '--bids' will generate JSON file that contains MR parameters | ||
based-on BIDS standard) | ||
```angular2html | ||
$ brkraw tonii <session path or compressed dataset> | ||
``` | ||
|
||
- Convert a scan, (default reco_id is 1) | ||
```angular2html | ||
$ brkraw tonii <session path or compressed dataset> -s <scan id> -r <reco id> | ||
``` | ||
|
||
- Build BIDS dataset with multiple Bruker raw datasets. | ||
- You need to copy all data into one parent folder, compressed zip file will also work (we recommend to use zip file) | ||
- All dataset under parent folder will be converted into ./Data folder with BIDS structure, but filename will not follow | ||
the BIDS standard. If you need to share your data, we recommend to use bids_converter function instead. | ||
|
||
![brkraw summary](imgs/brkraw_bids.png) | ||
**Example of automatically generated BIDS dataset** | ||
|
||
```angular2html | ||
$ brkraw tonii_all <parent folder> | ||
``` | ||
|
||
#### Automatic BIDS organizer with template files | ||
![brkraw bids](imgs/brkraw_bids_conv.png) | ||
**The usage of the command-line tool 'brkraw' for BIDS data organization.** | ||
We've tested our converter using the sample dataset from [Bruker2Nifti_QA](https://gitlab.com/naveau/bruker2nifti_qa) | ||
and the results showed correct geometry and orientation for all datasets. | ||
We are still looking for more datasets showing orientation issue, | ||
**if you have any shareable dataset, please contact the developer.** | ||
|
||
- Upgraded feature to reduce the burden on renaming according to BIDS standard. | ||
- Create a BIDS file table with excel format to use as a template for updating metadata | ||
that required to use for file naming. | ||
- This command will also generate the BIDS_META_REF.json which allows you to set | ||
custom syntax to parse the metadata from the rawdata. The default reference of | ||
the current version is based on BIDS 1.2.2. | ||
- The bids_converter command will also generate empty template of `dataset_description.json` and `README` | ||
- To learn more detail, please check our example | ||
[Jupyter Notebooks](https://github.com/dvm-shlee/bruker/blob/master/examples/BrkRaw_PythonAPI.ipynb). | ||
```angular2html | ||
$ brkraw bids_list <parent folder> <filname>.xlsx | ||
``` | ||
|
||
- Build BIDS dataset according to the excel file generated with 'bids_list' command above. | ||
```angular2html | ||
$ brkraw bids_converter <parent folder> <BIDS table file.xlsx> | ||
$ brkraw bids_converter <parent folder> <BIDS table file.xlsx> -r <BIDS meta reference file.json> | ||
``` | ||
|
||
- Run GUI with input and output path | ||
```angular2html | ||
$ brkraw gui -i <session path> -o <output path> | ||
``` | ||
![brkraw GUI](imgs/brkraw_gui.png) | ||
**brkraw gui interface.** | ||
|
||
- You can run GUI without any path option. It will show you only two buttons (Open File / Open Directory). | ||
In case you are opening zipped PVdataset, please use 'Open File' button. For later case, | ||
Make sure you are entered to the PVdataset root folder where the subject file located. | ||
If you does not enter to the dataset folder, the GUI will freeze. This case, just force quit the GUI. | ||
|
||
```angular2html | ||
$ brkraw gui | ||
``` | ||

- [Command-line tool usage examples](https://brkraw.github.io) | ||
- [Converting dataset into BIDS](https://brkraw.github.io) | ||
- [Python API usage examples](https://brkraw.github.io) | ||
- [GUI](http://brkraw.github.io) | ||
- [How to contribute BrkRaw](https://brkraw.github.io) | ||
|
||
- Print out archived dataset and its condition | ||
```angular2html | ||
$ brk-backup archived <rawdata path> <backup path> | ||
$ brk-backup archived <rawdata path> <backup path> -l // generate log file instead of printing | ||
``` | ||
|
||
- Print out review backup status | ||
```angular2html | ||
$ brk-backup review <rawdata path> <backup path> | ||
$ brk-backup review <rawdata path> <backup path> -l // generate log file instead of printing | ||
``` | ||
|
||
- Archive data from rawdata path to backup path, if the dataset has been archived and identical, then skip | ||
```angular2html | ||
$ brk-backup backup <rawdata path> <backup path> | ||
``` | ||
|
||
- Remove files classified as unnecessary via review process among backed up data. The interactive UI will ask you | ||
to confirm each step to prevent erase important data | ||
```angular2html | ||
$ brk-backup clean <rawdata path> <backup path> | ||
``` | ||
|
||
#### Windows 10 | ||
- Same as above, but use brkraw.exe instead of brkraw command. | ||
- If this command is not working, please check the version of your Anaconda and Python. | ||
|
||
#### Python API | ||
- import module | ||
```angular2html | ||
>>> import brkraw | ||
``` | ||
|
||
- load dataset | ||
```angular2html | ||
>>> rawdata = brkraw.load(<PATH>) | ||
``` | ||
