"internalImage".
retrieveNifti(object)object has an internal NIfTI pointer, that will be retrieved
directly. Otherwise, if it is a string, it will be taken to be a filename.
If it looks like a "nifti" object (from package oro.nifti),
or an "MriImage" object (from package tractor.base), a
conversion will be attempted. A list will be assumed to be of the form
produced by dumpNifti. Finally, a numeric array or matrix
will be converted using default image parameters.
