====== ANTs ======
**Advanced Normalization Tools** is a suite of tools for "spatial normalization" or warping or registration. Like [[:tools:fsl]]'s ''flirt''/''fnirt'' or [[:tools:afni]]'s ''3dQwarp''. (NB. [[https://rad.pitt.edu/wiki/doku.php?id=mr:resample_vs_registration|resample]] like ''3dresample'' is not warping).

Among many other pipelines, ANTs is used by [[:tools:fmriprep]] to align per visit T1w images to the [[:tools:MNI|MNI]] template creating non-linear warp files like ''sub-10644_from-T1w_to-MNI152NLin2009cAsym_mode-image_xfm.h5''
