The load_data boolean flag indicates to either load just the header info (0) or both the header and the data (1). This is important because the quick look framework, as currently implemented by Apple, set a hard total memory limit, even if the limit is reached only transiently. So I need to first read the header and determine if the file size is too big. If so, I will handle it differently.

Finally, pic2nifti.c implements a Biorad PIC to NIfTI converter by calling the pic_image_read.
In addition, Greg's original implementation includes all the required files from the nifticlib library to make the codes self-contained. To make it easier for inclusion in the plugin, I've instead provided a means to link the nifticlib library externally via makefile. You should modify the makefile to reflect the actual location of the nifticlib on your own machine.

!!How to extend the Plugin?
!!!Would you like the plugin to support your favorite medical image formats?
Here is how you can help. The easiest way to implement such support is for you to provide a function call in c programming language that produces a nifti image structure called nifti_image. The definition of this structure is available in nifti1_io.h from the nifticlib-1.1.0 library.
The API for the function call will then be
->[@nifti_image *formatname_image_read (const char *filename, int load_data)
@]
The load_data boolean flag indicates to either load just the header info (0) or both the header and the data (1). This is important because the quick look framework, as currently implemented by Apple, set a hard total memory limit, even if the limit is reached only transiently. So I need to first read the header and determine if the file size is too big. If so, I will handle it differently.
Two Important Considerations in Your Implementation:
#When the load_data is set to false, you shouldn't be loading the data in the memory in any way or form. If you do, it defeats the whole purpose of the call.
#Memory usage has to be optimized. As an example, if you use the default IO implementation of your format to read in the data first and create a new buffer for the nifti_image structure, then you are doubling the total memory usage. This in turn means that the plugin can only view images of half the maximum size set by the quick look server (on my machine, it is about 128MB). The implementation should be such that only one memory buffer is used.
!!!An Example Implementation:
Gregory Jefferis, who contributed the Biorad PIC format support, has kindly made the codes available online. The codes can be downloaded from
[[http://github.com/jefferis/pic2nifti/tree/master|http://github.com/jefferis/pic2nifti/tree/master]]
Here is how the codes are organized. libpic2nifti.h defines the API interface pic_image_read as suggested above and includes the header dependencies: biorad.h for the data structure of Biorad PIC support and nifti1_io.h for the data structure of nifti_image. libpic2nifti.c consists of the implementation of reading in a Biorad PIC file and filling in a nifti_image structure.

!Quicklook Plugin : Quickly browse through images on your Mac.
This plugin uses the Mac OS X Leopard's built-in innovative Quick Look framework to enable a quick assessment of any 3-dimensional image volume in the supported medical image formats directly from the Finder. Using the Finder's Cover Flow mode, a large collection of medical images can be browsed through and quickly inspected just as easy as flipping through your photos. Furthermore, a large number of images can be compared side-by side by selecting them together in the Finder, then pressing the space bar to bring up the Quick Look preview mode.
The current version is 1.8.3, released on June 2nd, 2010, with minor enhancement. The complete change log is available [[http://www.nitrc.org/frs/shownotes.php?release_id=897|here]].
!!Download and Installation
The current release can be downloaded from here for snow leopard and here for leopard.
To install the plugin, simply copy (drag-and-drop from Finder) the ''DTITK_QuickLookPlugin.qlgenerator'' either
to the directory /Library/QuickLook (if you want to make it available system wide) or to the directory ~/Library/QuickLook (if you want to make it available locally). Create the directory if it does not already exist.
Sometimes, the older version of the plugin may be cached in the memory. To purge it from the memory, you may need to run the following command from the Terminal command line (See the attached screenshot)
->[@ qlmanage -r

'''Attention''': To upgrade from 1.6.2 or earlier releases, please first delete the older version. This is because, beginning from 1.7.0 release, the quick look plugin has been renamed from ''DTITK_NIfTI_QuickLookPlugin.qlgenerator" to "DTITK_QuickLookPlugin.qlgenerator''.
!!Usage and Demonstration
The standard Quick Look usage applies. See the instructions provided by Apple for detail. The following
screenshots demonstrate the typical usages of the plugin.
