subtract_rest_task

Subtract mean rest spectrum from mean task spectrum after applying optimal linebroadening to the mean task spectrum. Usually used to correct for the BOLD lineshape narrowing effect in 1H fMRS data.
sum_coils

Calculate the sum across receiver coil elements.
t_test_spec

Perform a t-test on spectral data points.
svs_1h_brain_batch_analysis

Batch interface to the standard SVS 1H brain analysis pipeline.
te

Return the echo time of an MRS dataset.
svs_1h_brain_analysis_dev

Standard SVS 1H brain analysis pipeline.
stackplot.mrs_data

Stackplot plotting method for objects of class mrs_data.
tdsr

Time-domain spectral registration.
svs_1h_brain_analysis

Standard SVS 1H brain analysis pipeline.
sub_even_from_odd_dyns

Subtract the even dynamic scans from the odd dynamic scans.
td2fd

Transform time-domain data to the frequency-domain.
td_conv_filt

Time-domain convolution based filter.
write_mrs

Write MRS data object to file.
varpro_basic_opts

Return a list of options for a basic VARPRO analysis.
varpro_opts

Return a list of options for VARPRO based fitting.
write_basis

Write a basis object to an LCModel .basis formatted file.
varpro_3_para_opts

Output a table of fit amplitudes and error estimates for a single-voxel fit.
zero_higher_orders

Zero all coherences including and above a given order.
zero_fade_spec

Fade a spectrum to zero by frequency domain multiplication with a tanh function. Note this operation distorts data points at the end of the FID.
zf_xy

Zero-fill MRSI data in the k-space x-y direction.
zf

Zero-fill MRS data in the time domain.
write_pulse_ascii

Write an ASCII formatted pulse file.
zero_td_pts_end
