# mrinfo(1)

diffusion-weighted MRI white matter tractography

Part of [mrtrix3(1)](/mrtrix3/1.md).

## NAME

MRtrix3 - diffusion-weighted MRI white matter tractography

## DESCRIPTION

MRtrix is a set of tools to perform diffusion-weighted MRI white matter tractography of the brain in the presence of crossing fibres, using Constrained Spherical Deconvolution, and a probabilisitic streamlines algorithm. Magnetic resonance images in DICOM, ANALYZE, or uncompressed NIfTI format are supported.

## DEBIAN

All MRtrix programs are installed in /usr/lib/mrtrix/bin.  You either have to call them with their full path, or extend the search path by this directory. The MRtrix documentation has information on how to do that for a number of popular environments. Please note that it is not necessary to modify LD\_LIBRARY\_PATH -- despite the advice in the MRtrix manual.
