[Mrtrix-discussion] introduction to mrtrix

[Donald Tournier]

Hi Andrew,

I guess the best place to start would be the MRtrix
documentation<http://www.brain.org.au/software/mrtrix/>.
If you're not familiar with diffusion MRI, you might want to have a read of
our review article on the topic (Tournier, Mori & Leemans,
2011<http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21469191>).
The technical details of how MRtrix works are mostly covered in our MRtrix
paper (Tournier, Calamante & Connelly,
2012<http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ima.22005/abstract>).
These and other relevant references are listed in the appropriate section
of the online MRtrix documentation. Otherwise, the only thing I'd recommend
before starting to use MRtrix is to get familiar with Unix/Linux and the
command-line...

Hope this helps.
Cheers,

Donald.
