[Mristudio-users] Coordinate system

[Hangyi Jiang]

hi,

for axial slicing human brain,  the X-Y-Z system is in LPS anatomical direction.   or X = R->L,  Y=A->P, Z=I->S;

Dear all,

Simple question about the coordinate system in the Philips Scanners.
I would like to confirm the axis directions in terms of X-Y-Z coordinate system.

I guess, the axis directions
1) I-S(foot-to-head, inferior-to-superior) is "negative Z" direction
2) A-P(anterior-to-posterior) is "negative Y" direction
3) R-L(right-to-left) is "positive X" direction.

If I knew this incorrectly, please correct my guess.

Sincerely,
-SC
