  Description     : Python bindings to various neuroimaging data formats

 This package provides read and write access to some common medical and
 neuroimaging file formats, including: ANALYZE (plain, SPM99, SPM2), GIFTI,
 NIfTI1, MINC, as well as PAR/REC. The various image format classes give full
 or selective access to header (meta) information and access to the image data
 is made available via NumPy arrays.  NiBabel is the successor of PyNIfTI.
 .
 This package also provides a commandline tool for conversion of PAR/REC to
 NIfTI images.


This package will eventually replace the python-nifti package in Debian.
