Class elastix::TransformBase< TElastix >

UseDirectionCosines: Controls whether to use or ignore the direction cosines (world matrix, transform matrix) set in the images. Voxel spacing and image origin are always taken into account, regardless the setting of this parameter.
example: (UseDirectionCosines "true")
Default: true. Setting it to false means that you choose to ignore important information from the image, which relates voxel coordinates to world coordinates. Ignoring it may easily lead to left/right swaps for example, which could skrew up a (medical) analysis.

HowToCombineTransforms: Indicates how to use the initial transform (given by the command-line argument -t0, or, if using multiple parameter files, by the result of registration using the previous parameter file). Possible options are "Add" and "Compose".
"Add" combines the initial transform $T_0$ and the current transform $T_1$ (which is currently optimized) by addition: $T(x) = T_0(x) + T_1(x)$ ;
"Compose" by composition: $T(x) = T_1 ( T_0(x) )$ .
example: (HowToCombineTransforms "Add")
Default: "Compose".

Size: The size (number of voxels in each dimension) of the fixed image that was used during registration, and which is used for resampling the deformed moving image.
example: (Size 100 90 90)
Mandatory parameter.

Index: The starting index of the fixed image region that was used during registration, and which is used for resampling the deformed moving image.
example: (Index 0 0 0)
Currently always zero.

Spacing: The voxel spacing of the fixed image that was used during registration, and which is used for resampling the deformed moving image.
example: (Spacing 1.0 1.0 1.0)
Default: 1.0 for each dimension.

Origin: The origin (location of the first voxel in world coordinate) of the fixed image that was used during registration, and which is used for resampling the deformed moving image.
example: (Origin 5.0 10.0 11.0)
Default: 0.0 for each dimension.

Direction: The direction cosines matrix of the fixed image that was used during registration, and which is used for resampling the deformed moving image if the UseDirectionCosines parameter is set to "true".
example: (Direction -1.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 1.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.1)
Default: identity matrix. Elements are sorted as follows: [ d11 d21 d31 d12 d22 d32 d13 d23 d33] (in 3D).

TransformParameters: the transform parameter vector that defines the transformation.
example (TransformParameters 0.03 1.0 0.2 ...)
The number of entries is stored the NumberOfParameters entry.

NumberOfParameters: the length of the transform parameter vector.
example (NumberOfParameters 722)

InitialTransformParameterFileName: The location/name of an initial transform that will be loaded when loading the current transform parameter file. Note that transform parameter file can also contain an initial transform. Recursively all transforms are thus automatically loaded when loading the last transform parameter file.
example (InitialTransformParameterFileName "./res/TransformParameters.0.txt")
The location is relative to the path from where elastix/transformix is started!
Default: "NoInitialTransform", which (obviously) means that there is no initial transform to be loaded.

InitialTransformParametersFileName: legacy parameter name, replaced with "InitialTransformParameterFileName", and deprecated from June 2023.
