All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Cloneable

public class FileMincDimElem
extends ModelSerialCloneable

This class represents a MINC dimension element. As far as I can tell, MINC dimension elements are always descriptors of the three dimensions of the image file. Thus they contain a name and a length; the name is "xspace", "yspace", or "zspace", and the length is the size of that dimension. So an axial image that was 256x256 and had 34 slices would have "xspace" with length 256, "yspace" with length 256, and "zspace" with length 34. On the other hand, a coronal image with the same dimensions would have "xspace" with length 256, "yspace" with length 34, and "zspace" with length 256. This is because MINC always refers to the patient when assigning these dimension variables.
